Hi, I think you might enjoy the Belmont Simplon Eastern and Oriental Express from Singapore to Bangkok. And if you want to get your feet wet have a look at the SS Sudan the last original paddle steamer to ply the Nile from Luxor to Aswan. I can recommend both trips. But in truth Sir your take on any travel experience will be entertaining!👍

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.

Rewriting de-lee-ted comment. The American Orient express was a train that ran until 2008 when the economic crash happened. It was the level of quality and comfort seen in this video above. Great to see that there are still trains that run like that in the world. Thankfully, many of the cars of the AOE got "saved" and are now in the hands of private individuals, collectors, museums, heritage railroads, and historical societies.

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.

I swore I’d never do one again, but I absolutely love the look of this train. It’s a shame the scenery stays pretty much the same throughout the journey, however I think taking it very easy & relaxing this train for a few days would be the most wonderful experience. I had never heard of Rovos before, but I’m glad I do now!

Yesss! I've been hoping you would try out the Rovos Rail! I'm so excited to watch this! Edit: This video brings back so many memories when my parents were on the train quite a few years ago. They filmed their journey on their video camera and I would always watch it as a kid. And of course it won't be South Africa without loadshedding making an appearance. I'm actually surprised that it also affects the train electricity network. It's a shame you didn't go on the Kimberley museum and Big Hole tour. The Big Hole is definitely something to see. Thank you for this video and for the amazing memories you brought back.

The bathroom's twice the size of the one I have at home! Also, in comparison with the Orient Express - the journey's both longer and cheaper but still just as luxurious - just depends on the flight prices to SA, I suppose.

I am a proud South African to see this trip through our beautiful country and to have Will experience our daily loadshedding was only slightly embarrassing for us. However I would love to see if he did the trip via train overland to Kenya also with Rovos. On a different note and maybe sadly, the state of our railway stations and abandoned trains was heartbreaking to see

Absolutely stunning period details in those cars; six star menu; amazing Africa scenery; world class service. What's not to love about this trip? Price is surprisingly well placed for such an experience. In some ways, reminds me of the Ghan's platinum service across Australia -- and certainly affordable in compare with the Orient Express service. I plan to take this trip based exclusively on your video.

Just noticed the counter reach 400k between the videos I watched, so congratulations on reaching 400k !! Discovered the channel a few days ago and since I dont get to travel much and have a massive fear of planes as well as a love for train travel. This is just giving me such a great opportunity to experience some form of travel through the eyes of someone else. It is lovely to see what kinds of trains are out there and even the aviation videos make me feel a little less sceptical about the idea of plane traveling. Cheers to many more fun rail bound and aviation adventures !!

I have been to Joberg and also Liberia, although Joberg was beautiful and exciting, I cannot say that I fell in love with Africa, but glad others enjoy it! However, I enjoyed watching your trip - and the wonderful suite, the food of course, and your banter! Thanks for another trip - I flew for Pan Am thirty years ago and got to experience the world and all its fascinating cultures - I guess that I enjoy the cities much more than the rural, especially in Africa! Thanks again!

The way you talk and present your journeys lets me dream on being on the same journey. Looking forward for your next vlogs.
