We booked it through Yvette Lawson at Luxury Trains South Africa who was extremely helpful in organising our tour, pick ups and explaining everything to us. Would definitely book again Mai Van riel2025-03-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice traintrips, full of luxury.

I very rarely leave online reviews, but felt compelled to do so to vouch for Tertius and his company. Tertius was, quite simply, excellent in helping me and my family plan our two week trip to South Africa. I first encountered Tertius when I needed assistance booking a trip on Rovos Rail, whose own bureaucracy made it hard to book directly. Tertius was awesome in helping guide me through the process and followed up repeatedly in the months after I booked to make sure things were going smoothly. He also went above and beyond to help with the rest of our trip. Even though we booked our lodging and safari travels independently, Tertius voluntarily helped arrange shuttle and travel details--while refusing a further commission, no less--and checked in with me multiple times during our trip just to see if everything was going smoothly. I couldn't recommend Tertius more highly. Heather Cullimore2024-12-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Rovos train was a ‘bucket list’ trip for us & we feel very lucky to have been able to do this. Yvette from Luxury Trains & Safaris made the process so easy, and any questions or issues we had were very promptly sorted out. We were travelling from NZ and going on safari beforehand so were a little hesitant about the process of ticketing, luggage & accomodation. Yvette helped us throughout and kept in great contact. We would not hesitate to recommend this company if travelling to South Africa. Sergio Perrella2024-11-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My wife and I spent around 10 days in SA, starting from CapeTown and then crossing to Pretoria traveling the Blue Train. The train trip by itself is a lifetime experience . Nice people, nice accomodtions and nice food. Two nights crossing SA was fantastic.. Returning to CapeTown we spent a week walking around in the wonderful city, with goegeous views and places to visit. Thanks to Mr. Tertius Bester from "Luxury Trains & Safaris" we stayied in nice hotels with fantastic location. Thank you again "Luxury Trains and Safaris. We will come back. nancy paton2024-10-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tertius of Luxury Trains and Safaris booked my safari in October 2024. He was a joy to work with. He was knowledgeable about the different lodges and had great suggestions on itineraries. He even suggested adjusting the timing of the trip to get us better pricing. He double-checked our reservations before we arrived and kept in touch all the while we were on the trip. I will definitely use Tertius and Luxury Trains and Safaris again and I highly recommend his services. sam frederick2024-10-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome vacation a must for everyone!! Steve Edewaard2024-06-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tertius from Luxury Trains set up a 3 day tour of Capetown area for us. From the Hotel, to the transportation, to the tours we could not have asked for a more perfect trip! Our guide was very knowledgeable about all aspects of Capetown. In the short time we had they did the best to make sure we saw the most. Table mountain, Cape Hope, wineries, botanical gardens, and an beautiful tour along the coast. Highly recommend this company and the excellent care they provide!
