Luggage and Space
Although Tangula's suites are roomy and comfortable, trains
in general offer limited storage. Each suite has enough storage
space for two suitcases each less than 33 x 70 x 50 cm (13
x 28 x 20 inches), therefore guests are advised to make arrangements
for excess luggage which cannot be stored within the suite.
Tangula can assist guests with arrangements for their luggage
to be stored in their booked pre-boarding hotel or to be forwarded
to them ready for their onward journey after disembarkation
from the train.
Dress Code
Throughout the day guests are advised to wear casual, comfortable
clothing and shoes appropriate for walking during off-train
excursions. Check with your travel professional for special
items you might want to pack for your destination and the
time of year you are traveling.
Dining room attire is casual during the day; evening attire
is smart casual, such as casual dresses or pants for ladies,
and sport shirts and slacks for gentlemen. Ties and jackets
are not required. Casual daytime attire is not considered
acceptable after 6:00pm. Footwear and shirts are required
in all public areas of the train.
There are bathrobes and slippers in each private suite for
your use during the journey, however, they are not to be worn
in public areas. No laundry service is offered on the trains. |
