Welcome to Zimbabwe! On arrival at Victoria Falls airport there is an included transfer to the hotel. The rest of the day is free to relax or head over to the mighty "Mosi-oa-Tunya", the "Smoke That Thunders". Optional activities on offer include white water rafting, scenic flights over the falls or simply a walk into the national park to see the cascades.
Please note: we recommend booking pre tour accommodation in Victoria Falls to enjoy all of the exciting activities on offer and pre booking Victoria Falls activities to ensure availability.
Victoria Falls - Hwange National Park. There's time on the morning of day 2 to enjoy activities in Victoria Falls. We depart mid-afternoon for the 2-hour drive to Hwange National Park. This is Zimbabwe's premier wildlife reserve and our campsite for the night is located within the Private Concession, renowned for its large elephant population.
We enjoy an included morning 4X4 game drive on day 3, and you will have the opportunity to join a second game drive if you choose, or enjoy some time spent relaxing at the campsite, which has its own game viewing deck.
Hwange National Park - Nata (Botswana). Leaving Zimbabwe, we cross the border into Botswana and journey to our campsite in the Nata region, home to the jaw-dropping Makgadikgadi salt pans. We pay a visit to the biodiverse Nata Bird Sanctuary and then it's onto the Makgadikgadi itself during the late afternoon. We'll remain in the area to watch the sunset, a spectacular sight to see over the white salt flats. You may be able to spot flocks of flamingos, zebra, wildebeest, and the occasional ostrich wandering onto the desolate lake bed.
Nata - Maun - Moremi Game Reserve. On day 5 we travel to Maun and switch into our open-sided 4X4 safari vehicles to travel to the Khwai area of Moremi Game Reserve. This beautiful area of complete wilderness, with lush green vegetation and palm trees, is teeming with birdlife and a vast population of wild animals. We camp within the park, where you will be able to enjoy the sounds of the bush as we eat meals and relax at the camp.
Moremi Game Reserve - Maun. There's time for one final game drive early this morning where we hope to spot any species that remain on your list! Then it's back to Maun where the afternoon is at leisure. There is an optional 1-hour scenic flight over the Okavango Delta for those who are interested.
Maun - Okavango Delta. Departing Maun on day 8, we drive around the panhandle to our camp in the northwest of the Okavango Delta. There's a sunset boat excursion this evening where we hope to see hippo, crocodiles and other abundant species in the biodiverse delta. On day 9 we sail deeper into the delta where we can enjoy mokoro canoe excursions and game walks on some of the smaller islands, subject to the water levels in the delta.
Okavango Delta - Caprivi Strip (Namibia). Heading out of Botswana today, we cross into Namibia and journey along the narrow Caprivi Strip to our campsite. The Caprivi Strip is located along the Zambezi River and is a bird-lover's paradise, with many species attracted to the lush terrain near the river. Huge colonies of Carmine Bee-eaters dart about, whilst hippos bathe in the water and crocodiles sun themselves at the water's edge. Here we have plenty of time to relax and take in the tranquil surroundings.
Caprivi Strip - Chobe National Park (Botswana). Day 11 sees us crossing back into Botswana and driving through Chobe National Park, keeping our eyes peeled for wildlife. Known for its large herds of elephants and a population of rare painted dogs, Chobe is one of Africa's premier wildlife destinations.
The next day we further explore the park with an included game-viewing cruise on the Chobe River. There are also further optional game drives for those who would like to book these locally.
Chobe National Park - Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe). Today after breakfast we drive back to Victoria Falls and our tour comes to an end with an included transfer to the airport for your onward flight.
