We're in a celebratory kind of mood here at Rovos

We're in a celebratory kind of mood here at Rovos HQ. With Rohan, our formidable CEO's birthday, just a few weeks past and with the company's 35th clickety-clack around the sun fast approaching, we thought we'd also say three cheers to the African Trilogy journey!

We have operated this 16-day trip four times and all, for the most part, have been a resounding success. This journey is so varied in terms of landscapes and scenery as the train moves from the lush and tropical east coast to the vast and dry desert of Namibia.

@johnzimmer__ recently joined us on our Durban Safari, unwinding in the very heart of nature.

This safari between Pretoria and Durban departs during the summer months and includes game drives, a battlefield tale with a world-class historian and a look at unusual African ceramics.

It’s a once-in-a-lifetime trip that will leave you marvelling at the splendour of the African landscape and urge you to visit again.

Rovos Rail’s beautiful carriages created the perfect stage for an exciting murder mystery game of deception, strategy and suspense – creating a fun element to what was already the trip of a lifetime and adding to the lasting memories and special shared experiences.

A group of eight guests, with a great sense of fun and adventure, embraced the challenge, relishing the thrill of outsmarting their fellow participants. 🕵🏻

Head over to our blog to find out how it all played out.

As it’s our birthday month, we’d like to take a moment to reflect on the little things that we feel have helped us build our company into what it is today.

We are very proud of the fact that Rovos Rail is a privately owned and family-run company. As such, we believe each trip should have a familial quality – something that makes guests feel like they will be cared for from the moment they arrive until we say our final goodbyes.

To help accomplish this, Rohan, our CEO, has established a small but impactful tradition that Tiffany, our COO, will carry over to the next generation.

We endeavour to meet and greet guests at departures or arrivals of our journeys. As a close-knit family, we relish the idea of establishing an instant connection with our guests by personally welcoming them aboard our once-in-a-lifetime trips.

What a way to start the morning! ☕

If the mouthwatering aroma of our onboard breakfast is not enough to get you out of bed, the beautiful scenery just outside your cabin window will be. Africa at its finest!
