Just as symbolic of mankind’s efforts is the Cape to Cairo railway – the 19th Century dream of empire-builder Cecil Rhodes. He never saw the great project finished (there’s still a 500-mile gap in the rails even today), but what has been built is an extraordinary tribute to man’s ingenuity and it is the inspiration for our very own unique route northbound from Cape Town to Cairo. It is also the perfect way to see this remarkable continent at first hand, in luxury. The epic journey over 6,000 miles from one end of the Africa to the other is now possible and to complete this immense voyage we use a combination of the Pride of Africa train, a private jet and a five star Lake Nasser cruise ship.
