Add this experience to your wishlist The Shongololo Express

See more Trains. See best of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.


Warm, tranquil colours surround the rail traveller inside and outside the simple, comfortable, smart Shongololo trains which run on a network covering nine southern African countries. Sixteen-day adventure trips through deserts, along vast shorelines and through wildlife havens are available as well as the 'Dr. Livingstone' tour, the pride of the Shongololo Express, which brings the Victoria Falls, Dar es Salaam and the abundant wildlife of Lusaka National Park to our rapt attention, well over a century after Livingstone first discovered them.
