Trip overview

This is Southern Africa’s great safari circuit, starting in Victoria Falls. After two nights at the Falls you cross into Botswana for Chobe’s river safaris. Then a light aircraft carries you over the Okavango Delta, a vast inland delta of channels, lagoons and islands and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

In the Delta you’ll glide through the reeds by mokoro (dugout canoe), take game drives and guided walks where offered, and fall asleep to hippos and lions calling. It’s one of the finest safari experiences on the continent.
