Step back into a bygone era of opulent rail travel aboard Rovos Rail, often dubbed 'The Most Luxurious Train in the World.' Instead of the Orient Express, consider an epic journey across Southern Africa, perhaps from Pretoria to Victoria Falls or even Cape Town to Dar es Salaam. Retirees will savor gourmet cuisine, fine wines, and impeccable service in vintage wood-paneled carriages, while breathtaking landscapes unfold outside their windows. Off-train excursions offer wildlife viewing and cultural insights. This is more than transport; it's a grand, romantic adventure celebrating the art of slow, luxurious travel.
