Namibia is renowned for its wide open spaces, its spectacular sunrises and sunsets. The Desert Express schedule has been designed to allow passengers to take in all of these. Guests can relax and mingle in the popular Spitzkoppe Lounge, which like the entire train, is fully air-conditioned. A full bar service is offered on board, which includes specialty drinks and aptly named cocktails. There are 24 fully air-conditioned compartments, in 4 sleeper coaches (named Kokerboom, Oryx, Springbok and Meerkat), each with its own en-suite facilities. Each compartment converts to a private lounge during the day. All rooms are stylishly decorated, and reflecting the name of the coach it is located in with a matching carpet and sandblasting on the doors. |
