Safari in Vic Falls, Chobe & Okavango Delta (SA 7 days)

Victoria Falls, Zambia

Arrive at Livingstone International, where you'll be met and transferred to your lodge. Depending on what time you arrive, you should be able to enjoy a sundowner cruise on the Zambezi River, where you might spot hippo, crocodile or elephant. Overnight at Sussi & Chuma Tree House, with your meals, drinks and river cruise included.

Victoria Falls for the adrenalin junkies

Today you'll visit the famous Victoria Falls. The majestic waterfall – a Unesco World Heritage Site – is impressive in full flood (February to end May) and even in low season (October and November). After your walking tour, there are many optional activities to choose from for the rest of the day. Vic Falls is an adrenalin junkie's dream playground, offering bungy jumping, white-water rafting, kayaking, and even a helicopter flip over the Falls to get a different perspective. Note that these activities aren't included, and must be booked and paid for separately. Overnight at Sussi & Chuma Tree House, with your meals and walking tour of the Falls included.

Two countries in one day

After breakfast you’ll be transferred from to the Zambia/Botswana border by road (about an hour's drive), where you'll cross from Zambia to Botswana on a ferry, assisted on both sides of the border by your driver-guide. You'll check in at Chobe Chilwero Lodge, a riverside retreat in the heart of the bush on the edge of Chobe National Park in time for lunch. In the afternoon you can enjoy the sunset river cruise along the Chobe River, or an afternoon game drive in the park. Overnight at Chobe Chilwero Lodge, with your meals, drinks and activities included. 

Charming Chobe

Enjoy a full day at the lodge, making the most of the game drives in 4x4 vehicles to search for wild animals. Chobe has the largest remaining population of elephants in the world, and the bulls are renowned for their enormous size. There are also large herds of buffalo, many predators and antelope such as sable and roan. Overnight at Chobe Chilwero Lodge, with meals, drinks and game drives included.

Island safari

After breakfast, you'll be taken to Kasane Airport for your scheduled flight into the Okavango Delta. The Delta is an extraordinary experience and you'll be spending your time in the heart of the Delta. Chief’s Camp is on Chief's Island in the Mombo Concession of the Moremi Game Reserve. Known as the 'predator capital of Africa', this area is ideal for game viewing. The seasonal water of the delta ensures that the area in front of the camp is always changing – from a dry floodplain teaming with wildlife to a lush and tranquil lagoon.  Overnight at Chief's Camp, with meals and activities included.

Rhino spotting

Chief's Camp is located in the only area in the Okavango Delta that has both black and white rhino, completing the Big Five. You can take part in seasonal mokoro (traditional dug-out canoe) excursions, depending on water levels in the seasonal channels. Look out for some of the delta's 400-plus species of birds, including African fish eagle and Pel's fishing owl. Overnight at Chief's Camp, with meals and activities included.

'Till we meet again

You'll be flown to Maun from where you can either fly to Livingstone or Johannesburg to connect with your flight back home. Note that the Maun-Johannesburg or Maun-Livingstone flight isn't included (but can be included, depending on your preference).
