Mossel Bay Explorer Annual 6 Day Rail Journey

Описание: Mossel Bay Explorer | Annual 6-Day Rail Journey

Experience a warm, scenic multi-day rail adventure through the Western Cape with the Mossel Bay Explorer — a thoughtfully curated 6-day rail journey designed for travellers who want to explore South Africa at an unhurried, comfortable pace.

This annual journey combines relaxed daytime rail travel, vintage lounge and observation coaches, hand-selected off-train accommodation, and some of the Western Cape’s most scenic rail corridors. It’s a premium yet approachable rail experience that focuses on scenery, destinations, and comfort — without luxury formality.

Over six days, travel from Cape Town to the Garden Route, passing vineyards, mountain passes, farmland, and coastal curves. Evenings are spent off the train in charming towns, allowing you to properly experience each destination rather than sleeping onboard.
