South Africa's Blue Train reveals new services
28 February 2008
South Africa's Blue Train service has announced that it will operate two new excursions this year.
The operator, which described itself as a five-star hotel on wheels, will offer the packages in addition to its regular trips between Cape Town and Pretoria.
First up is a golfers trip that that will be available from 11 to 15 September and 13 to 17 November.
The four-day excursion will include two rounds of golf at Zimbali golf estate and two nights spent at the Zimbali lodge in KwaZulu-Natal.
A safari package is the other new option, with Blue Train offering trips from 24 to 27 September and from 29 December to 1 January.
This trip will take passengers to the Bakubung Bush Lodge in the Pilanesberg Game Reserve, including two nights' accommodation at the lodge and one guided game drive per day.
The Blue Train's regular services run between Cape Town in south-west South Africa and Pretoria in the north-east, with packaged routes also running to Durban on the east coast.
