Luxury South Africa Train Adds a Route

Starting today, South Africa’s luxurious Blue Train adds a route: between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. The two-night journey includes tours of the Kango Caves and Oudtshoorn (a center of ostrich feather production), and a three-hour coastline trip aboard the Outeniqua Choo Tjoe steam train. One-way fares in either direction are about $1,400 to $2,095 per person, double occupancy, depending on the class and time of year. Eighteen departure dates are offered. For reservations, see a travel agent. Philadelphia’s Premier Tours is among agencies offering air/rail packages; tel. (800) 545-1910.
