Today I’m taking the famous Rovos Rail luxury train for 96 hrs across South Africa. Join me on this adventure from Cape Town all the way up to Joberg. Together we’ll experience what’s been named the world’s most luxurious sleeper train, from inside the best room onboard (the Royal Suite) to the various dining rooms, the observation deck and even my ensuite bath!
I used my friend Jarvis’ luxury travel agency: https://theluxurytraveller.com to book this trip. He assisted no end in arranging all the finer details of the this once in a lifetime adventure.

No gym? 😱 NRZ is better.
I have NEVER heard him say the food was bad. I mean cmon.
It was an absolute treat to watch this episode of yours.. Its my aim now to take my family to this train trip.. All said and done mate, i am head on heels over your tims. Which one are they.. I want to gift one for myself…
When i came to home tired from job, at night i used to watch your videos. It feels me happy and energetic.

4 says is nothing I am at the moment on Rovos Rail Coppertrail train which last 14 nights!
Fantastic! But you have to go with somebody! No rice (risotto), pasta, salami…. no fruits!
ooh I would like to dive into that bed headfirst

1986 my birthday
It pains me when I see you having to mix with the common man, the common muck, the common scum.
Wow.
I love your channel and can not live without it but it is maybe time for a new mic? Kind regards from Sweden
I really love your videos and your attention to the details, explaining the difference foods along with history of the areas. Nice one, hope you enjoyed this trip as much as I enjoyed watching the video. Xx
I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of this man’s videos, and enjoy them. But can someone explain the NASA thing to me? Is he just a big fan?
Load shedding…!! I had to chuckle. I was watching the video in the dark due to loadshedding. As the word LoadShedding popped up on the screen, the lights came back on.
I am rather surprised with loadshedding that it also effects trains. They should have run with diesel-powered if they were going to be effected
I’d like to travel with this guy for just one day. Always finds some of the best ways to travel that I’ve not considered previously
brilliant
Is there no wildlife left there?
Retro look, throw back, I love it! Reminds me the good ole days! You lookin like a hellava boss!
It's interesting to see the luxury of the train contrasted with the corrugated steel shacks outside Joburg.
bruh on a 10k train ride and the first thing outside after departing the station is a shanty town. wtf kind of world is this.
I haven't been watching long, so have been catching up on your adventures. This is one of my favorites, along with the Orient Express. This is the only way I'll get to travel. Thank you for taking us along.
hey im in that country and i was at that station and also f*ck loadshedding power is off twice for 2 hours everyday
What kind of Timberlands are those?
That bed looked absolutely lovely!!!!! I know you slept like a baby!!!
This so cool
That is sooo awesome! I would love to travel like that one day. You have the amazing smile
After 3 drinks he rebels against the tie
Amazing.
We need to get you a shoe horn for your fancier trips.
Welcome to Beautiful Sunny South Africa 🇿🇦 enjoy your videos
Can anyone tell me what the music is in the background throughout the video. It’s relaxing, perfect chill song
I love watching your videos but I can only dream of actually experiencing the first hand
This and Bald and Broke are now among my favorite travel and exploration channels. 😉
If you want some duck and alligator again come to my lakehouse down southern US sometime
I live in Reno Nevada and the nicest train I’ve ever been on is Amtrak
I love watching your train videos. So interesting to see the different types of sleeper trains in different countries! I’d love to see a review of the Ghan in Australia.

After that "adventure" to Istanbul you've earned every second of this luxury! I think your bathroom on the train was bigger than the one in my apartment! 😂
Did you work of NASA or something?
I'd reckon it'd be funny as hell as crew member when you hear someone going: "Well, welcome to my bathroom".
The food look like shit.. luxury ai…
Do you smoke on the smoke breaks
