Bushtracks Express Dinner Excursion from Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe)

The Bushtracks Express offers a magical and romantic dinner as it runs along the track from the historic Victoria Falls Bridge. This is a luxurious steam train harmoniously paired with modern air-conditioned comfort and cuisine.

You are collected in the late afternoon for a 15 minute road transfer to the railway station. (There’s a safety talk from the guide en route.) On arrival at the station, you enjoy seeing the train ‘in steam’ which makes for a wonderful photographic opportunity. The train departs to the iconic Victoria Falls bridge to enjoy views of the Victoria Falls at sunset.

The Bushtracks Express consists of three carriages lovingly restored to their former glory by Rohan Vos of Rovos Rail. There’s a club car, dining car and observation car. Step back into a gentler time when life moved to the slow beat of the steam locomotive, with the freedom to move around the carriages. There will be a variety of drinks and a five course dinner prepared by the Victoria Falls Hotel. The dinner continues as you return to Victoria Falls during this unique safari. You are transferred back to your hotel to arrive by 9pm in winter (April to October) and 9.30pm in summer (November to March).
