About the Blue Train<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Suite-categories:<\/strong> There are two different suite-categories, De Luxe and Luxury (see below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cuisine:<\/strong> While The Blue Train lives up to its 5-star reputation in every sense, its cuisine surpasses even the highest expectations. It could be said that dinner will be the most unforgettable experience of your adventure. On board chefs regularly refresh their menus to intrigue and tantalise your palate, as they prepare their signature dishes using the freshest of local ingredients. And indeed, there\u2019s a menu for every taste. Whether you require Kosher or Halaal meals, or gluten-free vegan options, simply make your needs known at the time of reserving your passage. You\u2019ll also need to reserve your ideal dinner sitting. Our very elegant Dining Car comfortably accommodates 42 guests in a single sitting and, in the event of having more guests on the train, meals are served in two sittings to ensure all our guests experience utter luxury and decadence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dress:<\/strong> As the sky darkens over the landscape, you adorn yourself in your finest silks and satins, diamonds and pearls, tuxedos and ties, as you prepare to relish a banquet glowing with the camaraderie of new friends or dine entwined in the subtle intimacy of a table for two \u2013 or even if you opt to dine in the privacy of your own suite \u2013 you become aware that every taste you\u2019re about to experience is a memory in the making, a tantalising highlight on a menu of magical moments. For days on the train dress is smart casual. Evening attire is more formal \u2013 for the gentlemen a jacket and tie is a minimum requirement while for ladies we suggest cocktail \/ evening dresses or suits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Trains: <\/strong>There are two Blue Train sets \u2013 simply referred to as Train Set 1 and Train Set 2. The former can accommodate a maximum of 52 guests and is available for use during charters. Train Set 2 is the weekly \u201cschedule\u201d train running between Pretoria and Cape Town. It accommodates a maximum of 80 guests and includes a paraplegic suite and a Conference Car. Each of the two trains consist of a Baggage Van, Power Car, Personnel Car, Club and Lounge Cars, Kitchen and De Luxe and Luxury accommodation coaches.<\/p>\n\n\n The De Luxe coaches each have four suites that measure 4 X 2 metres. One of these contains a double bed and a \u00be size bath tub with handheld shower, while the others have twin beds with showers. The De Luxe Suite will forever alter your definition of what style and class entail. From your elegant and relaxing lounge during the day, it transforms into a subtly-lit bedroom of indulgence during the night, bedecked with goose-down and 100 per cent percale-cotton bedding, from your individually-controlled air-conditioning system, under-floor heating, opulent marble and gold-fitted bathroom, its scented bath salts and plush monogrammed towels, to the electronic entertainment options on offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your De Luxe suites are your home-away-from-home lounges. Relax in knowing that all suites are fitted with WI-FI service that is complimentary to all our guests. Use the telephone system in each suite to dial your butler, at no extra charge, for an ap\u00e9ritif or even call family and friends across the Atlantic and relay your Blue Train experience at a minimal fee. An act of alchemy transforms your sitting area into a restful night-time sanctuary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Price exampels: <\/strong>Pretoria to Cape Town High season: 01 September 2022 \u2013 15 November 2022, De Luxe R31,915 per person.
