CHARTER TRIPS
Very successful overnight trips from one to ten days have
been undertaken with special interest groups. Business incentive groups, historical
tours, private parties and bird shoots are just a few of the special charters
we have hosted during the past 11 years. Within reason, and subject to availability,
the chartered train can go anywhere there is a railway line in the sub continent
of Africa.
The costing for these trips is based on distance, time, the
number in the party and the number of coaches required to house the party.
Rovos Rail is a private train company running on the rails of the National Railways
and our tariff is determined by the number of coaches run at a given time and
the distance covered: added to which are the costs of locomotive crews, train
inspections and watering facilities. Therefore, each charter request has to be
individually costed. The following itineraries and costs will illustrate a few
options. Please note the prices are approximate and are valid until the 30th September
2002.
