Vintage Train to Elgin Mercado Ferroviário
Descrição
Os trens têm uma certa mística inextricável sobre eles - não é de admirar que sejam frequentemente o cenário para encontros românticos, mistérios de assassinato e assaltos elaborados. Talvez seja o impulso imparável para a frente; a intimidade do espaço fechado ou a sensação de aventura e antecipação que evocam. Situado em um país já bonito, o fascínio avassalador do país atrai quando se senta neste trem a vapor enquanto você observa o cenário em constante mudança. Nossos hóspedes passam o tempo no trem fazendo o que mais gostam, seja socializando no bar, lendo um livro, apreciando as vistas, conversando com a família ou fechando os olhos para apreciar os sons suaves do trem.

Itinerário
Os viajantes deslizarão pela Table Mountain ao partirem da Cidade do Cabo de trem a vapor, capazes de ver a enorme montanha em toda a sua glória pela manhã e à noite. O passeio de trem levará 7 horas indo para Elgin railwamarket e voltando.
O majestoso Sir Lowry's Pass se estende até 417 m acima do nível do mar; não é fácil subir de trem. Chegando ao pico, os hóspedes são tratados com paisagens incríveis e vistas panorâmicas de False Bay, Cidade do Cabo e Table Mountain à distância.
O Steampunk, Art-Deco "Elgin Railway Market" possui uma variedade de comida local, bebidas e ofertas de artesanato imersas em um cenário verdadeiramente único. Mantido aquecido por fogos crepitantes no inverno e resfriado por ventiladores gigantescos no verão.

It was a fun day! The Elgin Market was also great, with a good variety of food and stalls to browse. We boarded the train in Somerset West, which reduced the train journey from six hours from the V&A Waterfront to about three hours for the round trip. Overall, it was a great experience, thanks.
We are very happy to know that you enjoyed your day with us 🤩
X2 Pensioners, X2 Adults and X1 <16yo total cost = about R1300. We did the afternoon trip departing from Botrivier Station at 1:30 PM. While we waited at the station we were able to buy coffee, pancakes, delicious home made pies, tartlets, samoosas, and biscuits and other delicious jams, pickles crafts were for sale too. But the train ride itself was the absolute highlight. The little train wanders through the mountains and valleys with spectacular scenery. The youngest in the pwrty had never been on a train before. It was nostalgic, beautiful, very relaxed and an all round delightful experience. I give it 5 stars and highly recommend. Also a big thank you to the staff on the train who volunteer their time and expertise to make it possible. PS. Don't be in a hurry. It was almost 8:00PM by the time we made it back home in Somerset West, from Botrivier.
Thank you for your kind review. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed the experience so much. It really is a beautiful part of our country. We are thankful that the Bot River community volunteer their time to keep the station and precinct clean and presentable. However, none of our staff on the train are volunteers. :) We hope to see you again in the future.
It was an exceptional experience with the family; the staff were friendly, and the journey was full of variety and evoked a sense of nostalgia for train travel from a bygone era.
We are so glad that you and your family enjoyed your trip with us! Thank you for the kind review.

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your trip with us and the beautiful scenery that goes with it.
Great experience Even tho we would of liked the train we initially booked for, in the end it was worth the package
We are so glad that you had a great time! We are thankful that you chose to rebook your seats to those we have available - we look forward to the rest of the train being back from Mossel Bay when the line is repaired!
Anyone looking for a novel experience - this is the one to choose. Super friendly staff have all the knowledge and experience to make the day one to remember. An activity best shared with friends, or one even to find friends. One cannot be disappointed!
Loved the experience from start to finish! The booking was easy. The emails were simple and informative. A WhatsApp group was created and this was so helpful. I especially loved the video on how to get to the parking and check-in. On the day of the trip the WhatsApp updates kept us informed of where we were going, when we'd arrived, when to board again - we were never left guessing because we knew exactly what the plan was. And every single staff member from check-in to John to Sean and everyone in between - absolutely amazing, friendly, helpful, caring, professional and they delivered their service with passion. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.
It is because of reviews like this that we continue to grow and improve our service/offerings! Thank you for taking the time to share your views. Have a great week further!
This was an amazing experience from start to finish. The process and staff were amazingly friendly and helpful from when we entered the parking area, all the way through. Bernie, the train Chaplain was fantastic! He guided us, made us very comfortable and was a delight to engage with. I would highly recommend this trip.
Bernie really brings heart and soul to our train, and to the passengers in his care. We are so glad that he is a part of our team! Thank you for sharing your positive review with us - We really appreciate it!
