Kruger Shalati The Train On The Bridge has become a 'must do' safari stay in a number of ways. Permanently stationed on the historically-rich Selati Bridge above the Sabie River in the iconic Kruger National Park, Kruger Shalati offers the most unique luxury accommodation in a re-envisioned train.
As a restored locomotive, the train-hotel Kruger Shalati pays homage to the guests who explored the park nearly 100 years ago while welcoming new explorers from near and far.
The train accommodation offers 31 rooms, consisting of 24 carriage rooms and 7 bridge house rooms. The glass-walled, large train rooms allow for infinite views along the length of the Sabie River and are designed to ensure comfort. All rooms provide guests with a high-star luxury experience, accompanied by fine dining and other leisure experiences on site. Aligned with the floor level of the train lies a deck with a pool, offering guests the unique experience of taking a dip while watching crocodiles, hippos, and elephants just meters below.
Game viewing activities include morning and evening guided game drives led by well-trained ranger-guides in the Kruger National Park, offering a wildlife experience that ranks among the best in Africa.

My husband and I are grateful that Leigh-Ann Croeser was very patient with us in planning our trip to South Africa next year. She was knowledgeable and listened to what we wanted to see and a couple of times when we needed to change our itinerary and budget. She was very responsive to our concerns. We feel lucky to have her arranging our trip and we highly recommend her to anyone who wishes to visit South Africa.

Leighann took patience and long hours to craft our itinery as we were uncertain of what we want as this is our first visit to Safai. She contacted us after our inquiry to understand our need. We were uncertain about our length of stay and our budget. She patiently guided us and adjusted the itinery to meet our needs and budget. Very thankful and would recommend her to anyone to plan the trip. Now waiting for the trip to commence,
