Namibia Safari - Cape Town to Walvis Bay

Rovos Rail

Description

Overview

The Rovos Rail Namibia Safari from Cape Town to Walbis Bay (Cape Route) is a magnificent 11-night luxury rail expedition that stretches from the historic streets of Cape Town to the wild Atlantic coast of Walvis Bay. This special route gently carries travelers through some of the planet's most hauntingly beautiful and desolate landscapes, tracking a path across the semi-desert plains of the Great Karoo and the expansive edge of the Kalahari Basin. Traveling in five-star, wood-paneled vintage coaches, guests embark on a highly curated adventure that weaves through both historical milestones and dramatic natural wonders. Highlights of this southbound or northbound Rovos Rail Namibia Safari include exploring the coastal ghost town of Kolmanskop and the diamond history of Lüderitz, standing before the immense cliffs of the Fish River Canyon, and admiring the otherworldly silhouettes of the quiver tree forest at Garas Park. The adventure seamlessly blends rail travel with unforgettable overnight off-train stays—taking guests by light aircraft into the towering, garnet-colored sand dunes of Sossusvlei in the Namib Desert, and deep into the game-rich plains of the iconic Etosha National Park. Fusing the slow, elegant romance of a bygone era with the rugged, timeless terrains of Southern Africa, this journey offers an unparalleled window into the shifting scenery of South Africa and Namibia before pulling into its final seaside destination.
