The romance of rail<br />
Seven reasons why a stay on the Kruger Shalati should be on your romantic bucket list!<br />
The truly spectacular views from your<br />
bedroom ... be it one of the two dozen<br />
Carriage Suites on the Train on the Bridge<br />
or the seven Bridge House Suites, sitting<br />
adjacent to the bridge in a picturesque<br />
garden setting with the train’s gentle glow as<br />
your backdrop. All are opulent, with a hint of<br />
the 1920’s rail safari. The views are equally<br />
marvelous from the lounge and dining<br />
areas and the swimming pools, which overlook the<br />
Sabie River ... the river flows all year-round, drawing<br />
animals and birds that come to quench their thirst.<br />
The fact that you’ll be recreating<br />
history. The Kruger Shalati - The Train on<br />
the Bridge, sits on the exact spot where the<br />
train would park overnight close to 100 years<br />
ago, when visits to the Kruger National Park were<br />
first allowed. The refurbished train is permanently<br />
stationed on the historically rich Selati Bridge<br />
above the Sabie River ... a unique experience<br />
with luxury accommodation and activities<br />
reminiscent of days gone by.<br />
The option of a romantic turndown<br />
... with rose petals scattered around<br />
the room, a scented bubble bath<br />
and a bottle of Moët champagne or<br />
Steenburg Brut sparkling wine on ice.<br />
