Nine-century Victoria style trains and exclusive private platforms, 11-square-meter compartments and 16-square-meter royal suites; viewing decks, restaurants, bars, cigar bars, mini libraries - all available. This is the world's most spacious luxury special train, "Pride of Africa". Luxury train travel began between 1854 and 1896, during which a wave of railway tourism swept through Europe. Royalties, senior government officials, big tycoons and celebrities all enjoyed traveling by luxurious trains, making the "Orient Express" the favorite among European aristocrats at that time.
