VICTORIA FALLS AND BOTSWANA
This is a journey with fantastic nature experiences. "Mosi oa Tunya" - the smoke that thunders - is a fitting description of the spectacular Victoria Falls that stretch over 1700 meters on the border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. From here it is a short way to some of the very best game reserves in southern Africa. Botswana is the ultimate safari destination with its vast national parks and a myriad of wildlife. Here we find, among other things, the largest elephant population in Africa!
DAY 1: VICTORIA FALLS
On arrival you will be picked up at the airport and driven to the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge which is beautifully situated on the Zimbabwe side, just 4 km from the thunderous falls. The lodge has been voted "Best Safari Lodge" in Zimbabwe 11 years in a row. At sunset you can enjoy a drink while watching elephants and antelopes gather around the waterhole just below the hotel. Already here the safari experiences start!
DAY 2 AND 3: VICTORIA FALLS AND CRUISE ON ZAMBEZI
You walk through lush rainforest at the Victoria Falls. Local guides tell the story of the falls and about the flora, fauna and bird and wildlife life here. When the water flow is at its largest, it drops 10 million liters per minute down the 100 meters high slope. It creates a fog and rainbow that just breathes you away! In the evening there is a river cruise on the Zambezi. It is possible to see hippos and crocodiles from the boat. In the dry months, elephants and antelopes come to the shore to get to some smaller islands in the river.
DAY 4: VICTORIA FALLS
There is no lack of activities to fill the days with. Victoria Falls is the place in the world where there are most adrenaline-filled activities in one place. We can also arrange helicopter tours over the falls, called the "Angels' flight". Magic! Please ask us for advice!
DAY 5: BOTSWANA
Now is the time to sharpen all senses and find camera and safari clothes. You will be driven across the border to northern Botswana where you will explore the beautiful Chobe National Park. Accommodation at the great 5 star Ngoma Safari Lodge inside the national park. From your exclusive suite, you look down on the Chobe River, the lifeblood of the area. Here you can catch a glimpse of elephants, zebra, buffalo and other animals coming down to the river to quench your thirst and cool off.
DAY 6 AND X: SAFARI
Chobe National Park is also called "Home of the Giants", where we find the world's largest elephant population. In addition to the elephants, Chobe is also known for its large lion population. You can choose between foot safaris, open country raft safaris, night safaris or full day safaris with boat cruises and picnics.
DAY 8: DEPARTURE
You will be picked up at the safari lodge and driven to the airport for your return journey. Or what about a few days on a beach in beautiful Mozambique?
