Kruger Shalati The Train On The Bridge is a unique train-hotel permanently stationed above the Sabie River in South Africa’s famed Kruger National Park.
The Kruger National Park stands as South Africa’s most beloved reserves, offering up some of the most iconic game viewing opportunities in the country. The stronghold of the Big 5, it continues to lure in safari-goers looking for something a little different, and this is exactly why a stay at Kruger Shalati is highly sought after.
This luxurious locomotive hotel is settled on the old, disused Shalati railway bridge which runs across the Sabie River. Looking on the map, you’ll find it close to Skukuza Camp in the southern region of the reserve where the closest entrance is the Paul Kruger Gate.
If you’re travelling here by road, the travelling time amounts to around five hours from Johannesburg. If heading into the area from above, you can fly into the Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport (KMIA) located on the park periphery and get a private transfer to the hotel. Complimentary airport transfers can be arranged from Skukuza Airport.
