Hi Mel & Monique,
Just to confirm that we have received the voucher for reservation Knott, Germ – Dbn – Germ. I wish to thank you, Mel and Bernice for the prompt and efficient service that we have received, it was my first on-line booking, and you all made it seem so easy.
Kind regards, Willy and Lenie Knott

Hi Bernice,
I would like to thank-you for your professional and wonderful service in handling our booking. We had an unforgettable experience with tasty food and excellent service. The sleepers we clean, the bedding crisp and at night the beds were made. The crew were professional and friendly and made you feel welcome. Traveling by train is one of the greatest South African experience’s one can have. I am unsure of why many South African’s don’t take this travel option as a lot of foreigners do. It seems they know something the locals don’t. Keep up the good work. See you next year August! (With more guests this time). Regards Kevin Rack

Hi Monique & Bernice,
I just want to thank you for the service from you, we had a great trip to PE - we have no complains whatsoever only compliments ...from booking the tickets, friendly staff in the train and the food was good too. Keep up the great work!!! -Phumza

Dear Mel,
Please accept my gratitude to the professional service delivered transporting my vehicle from Cpt to Jhb. I do confirm that all went well and I did collect my vehicle in good state in Jhb station. Once again thanks for your valuable support and I will definitely reference your service to other guys; -Regards Eugenio

My Mom's Review
My Mom travelled Premier Classe last week and was extremely happy. She said, great service, fantastic meals, and the timings were spot on. She (My Mom) told us that she met wonderful people on the train and will do the trip all over again, any time, in a hurry. She absolutely loved it. She also said: The showers were clean and big, she was given a night gown and amenities,... In fact she was so busy, she hardly had time to talk to us on the mobile phone inbetween breakfast service, midmorning tea, four course lunch, high tea and five course supper... -Karin Fischer

Dear Monique and Bernice,
Thank you so much for your phenomenal services. I loaded the car yesterday morning in Johannesburg, I flew to Cape Town and now have just picked it up at Cape Town Station and back to work as normal. Thank you very much, Genito Maure

I would never have expected to find a massage therapist on the Shosholoza Meyl! And after a 14 hour flight from Australia it will work wonders on a tired body! Louis J Nel

Thank you very much Monique for your fast and efficient service. You make booking with Shosholoza Meyl a breeze. I hope we have more people like you in service. Regards Phillip Wihase

Hi Bernice,
I want to thank you for the excellent service from all at African Sun Travel. Our journey from Johannesburg to Cape Town via the Shosholoza Meyl Premier Classe Train was a highlight of our visit to a wonderful Country. I look forward to returning and will probably add a trip to Durban via rail. Oh and the Malva Pudding on the train was the best we had during our visit. -F Scott Hughes

Dear Melloni and Bernice,
My wife and I have now returned to the UK from Southern Africa.I thought that you and your team would like to know that our trip on the Shosholoza Meyl overnight train was excellent. The experience far exceeded our expectations. The accommodation, staff courtesy, subsistence and company of our fellow travellers made the journey to Cape Town memorable. It was a real adventure. Who needs the Blue Train! There's no better way to cross the mighty Karoo than on the Shosholoza Meyl. Keep up the good work. Best wishes Bob and Sally Jennings

Thank you Mel,
We are now back from our trip to Africa. The train was fantastic. A great way to see country we would have otherwise just flown over. Thank you for your part in our holiday. Andrew & Kirsty Biddle

Thank you very much Mel!!

Hi Mel,

Regards Hennie Cotzee

Dear Bernice and Charmaine,
Thank you both so much for your help in booking the Shosholoza Meyl Cape Town to Johannesburg train for me, my wife and children during our trip to South Africa. This worked perfectly and we were so glad to have made the train trip and seen the beautiful countryside in a way which is not possible otherwise. We will strongly recommend this to friends. The staff were helpful and polite. With kind regards to you both. -Rupert Mitford and family

Good day Meloni,
Just a word of thanks for the arrangements you have made for my dad on his recent trip on the Shozaloza meyl.  They have returned yesterday and being over 70 they only have compliments for the train, the services and especially the security. They enjoyed trip and looking forward to next year, doing it again. Thank you once again. Regards Helena Jacobs

Hi Bernice.
Got back to the UK. Just beautiful!! The food and service were first class. A big thank you to all that made the trip possible. Regards Stuart and Fiona

Hi Bernice,
I just wanted to say thanks so much for arranging the transport of my car, I received it earlier today. The service was efficient, cost effective and professional!! I will definitely be making use of your services for both of my parents cars that need to be shipped to Cape Town next month. -Kristy

Hi Bernice,
Thanks for a very efficient and convenient service. All went well and received my 4x4 happily on Friday. Thanks for your patience and explanations.
Regards Greg

Hi Bernice.
I would just like to say how much I enjoyed the train trip and the service was wonderful. I will recommend it to anyone coming to South Africa. A wonderful way to start my time here. Thanks so much for all your help with this. -Chris Sutton

Hi Bernice.
We have just had the most wonderful experience travelling on the Shosholoza Meyl Premier Classe train from Cape Town to Johannesburg. Our accommodation, which included toiletries, slippers and the loan of white, fluffy gowns was superb. Tea, coffee and warm muffins were served in the Executive lounge on Cape Town station whilst our luggage and car were put onto the train. Lunch was a 3 course affair followed by mid-afternoon tea, coffee and cakes. Dinner, comprising of 5 courses was served with a choice of South Africa's top wines - what more could one wish for with the Karoo as your back-drop. Breakfast didn't disappoint either. The staff were most attentive and went out of their way to meet our every need. Upon arrival at Johannesburg (45 minutes before the scheduled time of arrival) our car was speedily off-loaded. We were a little worried at media reports about the non-operating of the Premier Classe train but were assured, that it would be running as scheduled and we were not disappointed. We would certainly recommend travelling on the train both here and overseas - it brought back wonderful memories of train travel of a bye-gone era.  ROSEMARY KIRCHMANN

Hello Bernice,
There were some reviews on the internet, that said the train was fantastic and complaints that the booking process was hard. I must say I have been pleasantly surprised by the ease and efficiency of your booking process and I will be sure to comment on the relevant trip advisor sites to that effect. Kind Regards Beverley

Hello Peter,
The whole process was faultless. I'd heard much about the experience and they were all spot on. Thank you for your assisting my numerous 'stalking' phone calls but I've another 2 vehicles to bring down and looks the only way to do it. As you may gauge from the pictures - a most civilised experience, had by all. Many thanks Jeremy Lea

Hi Bernice.
During last week I travelled from Cape Town to Johannesburg via the Shosholoza Meyl and back. I just need to thank you and congratulate you on excellent services rendered. From the service to the cleaning it was absolutely memorable.  I have advised all my friends and family to try this mode of travel (even though it is so very long.......) Once again thank you and I hope to travel this way again. Mrs S. De Klerk, (my daughter Miss A. De Klerk and my grandson - Mr A. De Klerk).

Hello Peter,
Just a note to say thank you for the service that your company arranged for us to moved our car from Johannesburg to Cape Town. Travelling from Hermanus on Friday, we found the directions given to us by your colleague on how to get to the Cape Town station spot on. When we arrived at the station, we found the train had arrived more than 30 minutes early. My motor car was already waiting for me on the platform. The paperwork took no more than a minute and we were on our way. A first class experience!  Thank you once again.

Hello Bernice,
I wish to bring to your attention the wonderful service I received from Meloni in the matter of a booking I was making. I couldn’t have the day I wanted as it was fully booked and she went to endless trouble to sort out alternatives for me. And all in a friendly patient manner. Such service is a joy. Unfortunately today one does not always meet with the likes. Please let her know how pleased I am. With thanks Mrs Shirley Hardy

Hello Peter,
I would like to take the opportunity on behalf of myself and my wife to thank all Premier staff for the journey from Cape Town to Jhb on the 23/04/2011. Due to the goods train derailment we had to be taken by bus to Worcster. We can only but have respect for the proffesional way we were treated by all staff from the Train Manger to Catering and security. Catering was of the best! Being an ex Spoornet employee and taking my spouse on our 35th wedding anniversary, we will surely cherish our trip and experience for a long time. Regards Wessel and Elsabe Strydom

Hi Guys,
Just to thank you for your help. We dropped off the cars this morning and it was all well organised and a pleasant experience. Thanks ! David Bowman

Hi Bernice,
Thank you so much – I am so very impressed with your amasing service , for you to go the extra mile and meet my parents personally is unheard of. Please pass on the message to your Manager to let them know that we are very thankful for all your efficient help and wonderful service. This is a very special trip for them with it being 40th wedding anniversary and with your help it is going to be a trip to always remember and cherish. You are truly a star.
Kind Regards Beverley Benjamin

Hello Peter,
I just wanted to say what a lovely trip we had on the Shosholoza Meyl, I really enjoyed every minute and the staff were all super-friendly and efficient. I would recommend this to anyone (and already have). Going by train to Joburg was something I have wanted to do for a long time, and now I'm only sorry I waited so long. Kind regards Linda Steele
