Full Train Charter

Do Something Different – Book A Full Train Charter

Are you tired of the same old options every year when it comes to planning the year end dinner? While the food and mood might be very enjoyable at certain restaurants, it just doesn't really seem to be getting any more exciting. All the venues are ultimately very similar. So why not rather opt for a change of scenery? In fact, why stick to one scenery at all during the course of the evening? Through Cardinal Leisure it is now possible to book your event on one of the two most luxurious trains in South Africa – the Blue Train and the Rovos Rail. The full train charter will ensure that the entire train is reserved for your group only during this time, while also providing you with world-class service.

While this option is perfect for the mentioned year-end functions, as well as strategic meetings, product launches, VIP cocktail parties, VIP breakfast, lunches or dinners, weddings and more, there is no reason why your full train charter should be limited to a few hours only. You can also book the train for overnight trips from one to ten days. This is perfect for special interest groups, such as business incentive groups, historical tours, private parties and bird shoots, to name but a few. Within reason, and subject to availability, the chartered train can go anywhere there is a railway line in the sub continent of Africa.

Because of the varying trip lengths regarding distance and amount of days, as well as the amount of people, the costs on a full train charter will differ. Also to consider is that Rovos Rail is a private train company running on the rails of the National Railways and our tariff is determined by the number of coaches run at a given time and the distance covered: added to which are the costs of locomotive crews, train inspections and watering facilities. Therefore, each charter request has to be calculated individually.
