Catching the RMS St Helena

Q: I have always wanted to take the mailboat service to St Helena. Would this service still be available early next year? If so, how much does it cost and when does it sail around February? - James Listworth

A: The RMS St Helena service from Cape Town to St Helena is still running. There are voyages from January 26 to February 13 and from February 16 to March 5 next year. The prices vary substantially, depending on cabin choice. Fares are published in British pounds, ranging from 395 to 1783 per person. However, to get the fare in South African Rand for your date of travel you have to contact the Cape Town office on telephone 021 425 1165.
