96 hrs on Worlds Best Luxury Sleeper Train - Rovos Rail Royal Suite

Today I'm taking the famous Rovos Rail luxury train for 96 hrs across South Africa. Join me on this adventure from Cape Town all the way up to Joberg. Together we'll experience what's been named the world's most luxurious sleeper train, from inside the best room onboard (the Royal Suite) to the various dining rooms, the observation deck and even my ensuite bath!

Thanks so much for coming along on this adventure with me. I have a packed next few months coming up (Millie is returning to the channel too)... but if you have any suggestions of unique luxury trains, planes or even ships let me know :)

The main reason I watch these is so I can enjoy and imagine luxury without having to pay for it but he is just a joy to watch as he travels the world with us and makes me feel so happy the more I watch these

I've recently discovered your channel and can't tell you how much I've enjoyed watching your adventures. Being chronically ill, I'm unable to do this kind of thing myself so it really is lovely to be able to experience them through you.

Being South African born and bred, and having driven across the Karoo, it all looked so familiar. There is a energy in the ground in Africa and unless you have been there you don't understand it. It made me feel both so homesick but also proud to see the scenery, the sunsets and the beautiful train and proper luxury from a era long ago that is far more luxurious than anything modern that is touted as 'luxury' or 'premium' which don't hold a candle to this - this is proper old school luxury and attention to detail at it's finest. A fabulous video and journey and a new subscriber to your channel too! Thanks again fella.

Gotta say, I love your direction and shot framing. It must be so much work taking establishing shots, sitting yourself walking into a room from behind, etc. All the blocking, framing, and editing are top notch!

I cannot help but have a big cheesey grin on my face as I watch this lovely young man on his adventures and feeling excited for him. His English manners and infectious smile really help make this such a pleasurable channel to watch no matter where he is in the world.

I just howled with laughter at the Istanbul train flashback 🤣 The Sweatbox Express!! From odious to opulent indeed. This one looked absolutely phenomenal!

Kid is making the push to 1M. So proud to have been here since 36K and the incredible job that you’ve done! Watch you as a fam for inspiration “one day”. Thank you Will!

Can’t believe there is enough water for a full bath on the train. That is so amazing.

[nicolejupiter]

Awesome to see my home country represented. After moving to another country, I realised just how much South Africa prides itself on customer service and a tailored experience. There’s nothing quite like it!

[eggrollyummy]

can i just say how much i appreciate all the love and work you put into your videos. i've been binging your channel for the past several weeks which have been quite stressful for me, but your videos bring me a great deal of comfort. it's so lovely seeing you experience so much of what this world has to offer and your pleasant journeys are a much needed reminder of how worthwhile and incredible life can be. i missed millie this train ride but im glad to see she's returning soon. thanks again so much for all the care you put into your channel! <3

[tripstracka]

Wow! Pretty smooth Will. Another great adventure you’ve brought us. Thank you as always.

[aaronredbear]

As a South African it's pretty awesome to see it displayed under such a good light.
It's not an authentic South African experience without loadshedding however but I'm glad it didn't majorly impact your enjoyment of the journey.
Keep up the great content!

looks like such a magical experience✨ not jel at all 👀

OMG I did a similar journey from Cape Town to Pretoria 10 years ago on ROVOS rail in the deluxe suite on my 40th birthdays and it is a journey I will NEVER forget… As you say, the food and the service were both amazing and I would do it again in a heartbeat… My journey was (sadly) only 2.5 days, but Kimberly and the BIG HOLE was quite spectacular… I get your point that you needed down time, but you missed out… That hole is HUGE!!! Thank you for bringing back memories for me… Just GORGEOUS!!!

[kkristine]

I love your humor! Thanks for taking us all along with you. I'm a solo traveler myself so it's fun to watch someone traveling alone and what they do.

[kourtneyk]

Ugh why can’t more trains be like this? This looks like an awesome experience

I don’t subscribe to many channels as I’m not a huge social media type of person but I literally cannot wait for the latest of Will’s travel adventures. The way they are edited, the honest and frank opinions all done with massive charm are just intoxicating to watch. I am so envious of Will’s travels but not at all in a negative way as they are put together so inoffensively. This has been the best video to date in my opinion and although I have never been to South Africa I would do this trip all day long. Cheers Will, already looking forward to the next video.

It’s a complete package to watch-drinks, food, scenery & the gorgeous train.❤️

I love this train, I did my travel agent practice on this train and a year later my tour guide practice. Love this train.
