The origin of African pride

1986, British-born South African businessman Lohan Voss founded the train company and named it "the pride of Africa". Its original intention is only to realize the dream of exploring wild animals by train with family. Now "the pride of Africa" has become synonymous with top luxury trains. Lohan also transferred all other industries and devoted all his energy to building his own train empire. In the past 20 years of Our Days, the "African Pride", known as the "luxury cruise ship on the tracks", has won the favor of countless celebrities and romantic couples with more than ten classic tourist routes, covering all over South Africa and southern Africa. The "pride of Africa" with aristocratic descent and its antique carriage have a history of 100 years. The interior decoration of the box is elegant, with a strong Victorian retro mood. On the "Pride of Africa" train with an average speed of only 70 kilometers per hour, you can see the beautiful scenery of Yuan Ye in Africa along the way. At the stops along the way, you can also relive the legendary experiences of African developers and explorers in the past.

The whistle sounded in the ear, and Mr. Rohan Voss, the owner of South Africa's "Pride of Africa" luxury train, personally boarded the platform to make a speech. The ladies and gentlemen whose names were read out walked on the red carpet one by one and boarded the train with the conductor. Smoke is sprayed into the air from the chimney of the steam locomotive, water vapor permeates the platform, and fine smoke like snowflakes slowly falls in the sky. The scene in front of us is not from an old Victorian movie. This is the welcoming ceremony held at the private bus station in Pretoria, the pride of Africa, before the train leaves.

When the train leaves Pretoria, tourists put on goggles and stick their heads out of the train to enjoy the scenery-African green Yuan Ye, residential courtyards with blooming flowers, flocks of cattle and sheep pastures changing in front of them like vivid African documentaries. Lying in the big bathtub with Victorian claws in the bathroom, you can enjoy the spectacular sight of ostriches and antelopes running with the train through the big window opposite the bathtub while taking a bath. Occasionally, I will see flamingos living in groups in the lake. Walk through the floor-to-ceiling glass door at the end of the train at night. Sitting on the bench of the observation deck at the rear of the car, the fresh air mixed with the faint scent of grass is refreshing, and the starry night sky is refreshing. The train stopped at Kimberley, a famous diamond city in South Africa, and Magfindan, an ancient town in the wilderness. In the early years, countless diamond miners failed to leave the harsh land of Kimberley alive. Now tourists can enjoy the fun of safely panning for diamonds here. Majefontein was once the battlefield where the Boers hit the British hard. Look at the museum in town that keeps Queen Victoria's letters to boost the morale of the army. Or drink a glass of local beer with an ancient organ in a pub, and you will feel the vicissitudes of history.

Before arriving at the terminal in Cape Town. The endless green hills and vast grape fields remind people that the picturesque Cape Town has arrived. At this time, take a sip of South African red wine served by the waiter. I can't help but revel in the fantastic romantic atmosphere of luxury trains.

"The pride of Africa" is the beginning of a dream. It is also the destination of dreams. Before the end of the trip, tourists always fill out postcards at the bedside. I threw it into the mailbox on the train with my dream, looking forward to the next journey of "pride of Africa"
