THE
GARDEN ROUTE SPECTACULAR
2 days & 1 night aboard
the most luxurious train in the world
Cape
Town - Worcester -
Ashton - George
This spectacular 550-kilometre 24-hour trip runs between Cape Town and George during the summer months and is rated one of the most beautiful in the world.From
the Mother City the train, with the Hex River Mountains as
a backdrop, travels through the Tulbagh Valley towards Worcester.
Grapes are grown in vast quantities in this area, and apart
from several co-operative wine cellars, there are a number
of brandy distilleries. The KWV Brandy Distillery is visited
on the George to Cape Town leg.
The
train continues along the Breë River Valley towards Robertson,
home of the largest brandy distillery in southern Africa,
and then onto Ashton, largest producer in the southern hemisphere
of canned fruit, jams and vegetables. On the Cape Town to
George leg a stop is made to sample the wines of a local wine
estate. Then it is on towards the coast passing through stations
such as Merwepoort, and South Africa's third oldest town,
Swellendam. Leaving
the coast behind the train passes near Mossel Bay, a commercial
seaport that enjoyed a boom in the 1990's due to the discovery
of offshore oil. George is a quiet inland town, founded in
1811 and named after King George 111. Available to our guests
is the optional 67km stretch between George and Knysna aboard
the local Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe run by the Transnet Museum.
