Sure, you've tracked lions and photographed charging elephants, but that doesn't mean you've seen Southern Africa. Some of the world's finest vineyards, huge sunflower farms, and Karoo thirstlands full of wild ostrich: These are what you'll be chasing on the famed, lavish Blue Train . And you'll hit the can't-miss cities as well: historic Pretoria (set amid the violet blooms of its famous Jacaranda trees) and one of the earth's most beautiful locales: Cape Town. Tickets are priced seasonally. See www.bluetrain.co.za.
