The Blue Train

Africa 

Speeding through the South African countryside, The Blue Train is an icon of the rails.

The 27-hour service has, in the past, been frequented by kings and presidents, plus household name stars like Kylie Minogue and Sir Elton John, and remains one of the most luxurious experiences on the rails with attentive butler service for each and every guest.
