South Africa, Victoria Falls, Rovos Rail & Eastern Oriental Express Adventure

Luxury rail journey across Southern Africa and Southeast Asia

Illustration of South Africa, Victoria Falls, Rovos Rail & Eastern Oriental Express Adventure

Railbookers operates this 19-day, 18-night independent rail package that spans Southern Africa and Southeast Asia. The trip begins in Johannesburg, where travelers learn about South Africa's history and go on safari in Pilanesberg National Park. Travelers then board the Rovos Rail, described as luxurious, for a journey through Hwange National Park to Victoria Falls. From there the trip continues toward Southeast Asia, where the trip's own name points to the Eastern & Oriental Express, though the description available to us stops short of covering that portion in detail. It suits travelers who want a long, high-end rail journey spanning two continents rather than a single-region trip. Priced from $18,659 USD per person.

What to know before you look closer

  • The trip includes a flight between the Southern Africa and Southeast Asia portions of the journey, alongside the named rail segments.
  • Railbookers does not publish a day-by-day itinerary for this package in our records, and the description available to us cuts off before detailing the Southeast Asia and Eastern & Oriental Express portion; confirm those specifics directly with them before booking.
