South Africa The trip starts here

You'll spend the first few days in Cape Town exploring all the best highlights. You can look forward to a hike to Table Mountain, a visit to Cape of Good Hope, delicious wine tasting, Hout Bay and Cape Point National Park just to highlight a few of the included activities. From Cape Town you'll head North along the West coast until you find yourself situated at Orange River on the border to Namibia.

Namibia Canyons & Deserts

First stop in Namibia is Fish River Canyon - an iconic sight in Namibia and the second largest canyon in the World after Grand Canyon. After spending some time admiring the natural wonder it's time to move further into Namib desert where you'll both get to explore Sossusvlei and Swakopmund. Amongst others are some fun dune climbing and 4x4 drives in the desert. You'll go from desert to safari when you reach Etosha National Park. Enjoy some exciting game drives and spot the amazing wildlife before heading towards the border to Botswana.

Botswana Okavango Delta & local villages

You cross into Botswana from Namibia and the first stop is Okavango Delta. The World's largest inland delta that creates one of Africa's greatest concentration of wildlife. Here you'll be sailing in a local Mokoro, go for an epic bushwalk and much more. From Okavango Delta you move on to Maun and the small local Chenoga Village near Makgadikgadi Pans. Next up is Zimbabwe and Vic Falls!

Zimbabwe

One of the most spectacular highlights on this trip is of course the Amazing Vic Falls. This natural wonder doesn't need further introduction, but the optional things you can do here might do. When you're at Vic Falls you can opt in for some bungeejumping, white water rafting or a scenic helicopter ride above the massive waterfall. You have a few days here, so there will be time to explore the town as well.

South Africa The end of your trip

After a couple of days with small stops in both Bulawayo in Zimbabwe and Limpopo in Botswana you end this group tour upon arrival in Johannesburg. We have added an extra post night for you so you can explore the city. If you want to stay longer, just let us know and we'll sort it out. From Johannesburg you fly back home, if you want to of course. If you want to continue your trip, we can also help with that.
