Rovos Rail Honeymoons and Romance

By taking couples away from the world of cellphones and computers, TVs and DVDs, iPods and radios, plus outside distractions that might detract from time together, Rovos Rail fosters romance.

(Note: Cellphones equipped for international roaming will work and laptops can be powered in cabins using a provided current adaptor, but the public spaces are strictly no-tech.)

Guests who book deluxe suites can choose from twin beds or a double one. In some cabin configurations, the bed stretches from wall to wall, so users must climb onto it from the foot.

Whatever your bedroom arrangements, the gentle rocking of the train can lull you to sleep.

Before that, though, you may find a heart-warming arrangement on your bed when you return from dinner: The bottle of domestic champagne, two glasses, and romantic rosebuds are compliments of Rovos Rail.
