Premier Classe train reservationsThe Premier Classe offers luxury train travel between Johannesburg and Cape Town, & Johannesburg and Durban. Whilst a notch below the luxurious Blue Train, the Premier Classe offers a higher specification service than Shosholoza Meyl. Housekeeping makes your bed up for you while eating supper & your sheets are removed the following morning during breakfast.
If you're not a smoker, avoid staying near the smoking car.
If you're a light sleeper a train may not be a good idea, as it is noisy on the tracks and the train rattles.
Please contact Yvette Lawton to make a reservation or for enquiries:
