The Great Wilderness Exploration Safari

Victoria Falls – Zambia & Botswana

11 Days | 10 Nights

From $15,439

Visit the legendary Victoria Falls and stay in an Authentic Safari Style Lodge on the banks of the Zambezi River.  Enjoy a leisurely shaded boat cruise along the Chobe River before embarking on your Deluxe Camping Safari and Wildlife Viewing Adventure reminiscent of the Great African Explores.  This journey takes time to explore Botswana’s true wilderness areas in the scenic north where some of the largest herds of elephants, large cats, and African wild dog roam.  Travel from the diverse wildlife rich Linyanti and Chobe river systems to the famous blue green wetland of the Okavango Delta.  Accommodation is a combination of luxury camps and fully serviced camping, all in private concessions offering unrivalled remoteness and sense of space.  One of the greatest features of this journey is the large number of zebra, giraffe and buffalo that congregate on the floodplains and the large herds of elephants that feed along the Linyanti river banks.
