T he Travel Society has a new offering: the Shongololo Good Hope Adventure train trip
a wonderful tour to the highlights of South Africa in luxurious comfort. You'll be met at Johnnesburg Airport and transferred directly to your cabin on the train where you can unpack and relax or choose a 'pre-trip' activity. In fact, 'choice' is an important factor of this tour for, as you travel from Johannesburg to Pretoria, Kruger National Park, Durban, Swaziland, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth, Mossel Bay and, finally, to Cape Town, you'll have a wide choice of exciting activities to enjoy. These 'activities' fall broadly into four main categories:
Nature & Wildlife, Culture & People, Highlights & Leisure and 'Special Activities'. And most programmes are included when you travel with The Travel Society. So whether this is your first or fifth visit to South Africa, you can be sure of the highlights or new, special experiences. And every night you will return to the comfort of your train.
Nature and Wildlife experiences include a safari visit to famous Kruger National Park, a trip along the spectacular Panorama Route to the Blyde River Canyon and God's Window, a visit to the Safari Lodge in Zululand, a hike in the Xumeni Forst of the Drakensberg region, the Cango Caves, trips through scenic mountain passes, whale watching and so much more.
The Culture & People excursions include city tours (Pretoria, Johannesburg, Soweto, Durban, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth and Cape Town), trips into Swaziland, Shakaland and Zululand, an exploration of the Battlefields of the Boer Way and a visit to the historic heart of the beautiful winelands around Stellenbosch.
The 'Highlights and Leisure' component offers relaxing days on the train or the beach, enjoying the spectacular scenery in comfort. The perfect choice for those who love to travel but are not as mobile as they once were. And the 'Special Activities' are for the truly adventurous. They include a trip to the 'Cradle of Humankind' caves, shark cage diving, whale watching, a sunrise balloon experience, helicopter flights over Cape Town and the Cape Peninsula , a drive through the high Sani Pass of Lesotho and so much more.
