Summary
Spend eight days on a once-in-a-lifetime-wildlife tour through Southern Africa that really can’t be topped. Visit Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park, track animals on foot and view resident wildlife from an open-vehicle. Later, search for the “big five” in South Africa’s Kruger National Park and experience the unique traditions of the local people. This is authentic Africa right before your very eyes.
Itinerary
Day 1
Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls is a great base to kick-off a southern African adventure to see some natural wonders and take part in some exciting activities. Arrive before your tour starts and opt to get up close (and wet from the spray) while awing at the immense Victoria Falls, raft the whitewater of the mighty Zambezi, or for the more adventurous, bungee jump with Victoria Falls in view.
Day 2
Victoria Falls/Matobo National Park
Begin the day early with Victoria Falls thundering in the distance. Then, climb into the Lando and enjoy the scenery along the way to Matobo National Park. It will be a full travel day.
Day 3
Matobo National Park
Set off in an open wildlife safari through Matobo National Park in Zimbabwe. Visit a Khoisan cave with historic paintings, learn about edible plants, and wildlife conservation efforts.
Day 4
Matobo National Park/Tshipise
Spend most of the day travelling in the Lando before crossing the border into South Africa. In the evening, relax at the campsite and opt to enjoy the mineral pool located nearby.
Day 5
Tshipise/Kruger National Park
Spend the full day on a wildlife safari drive within the 5 million acres of Kruger National Park. Search for the “big five” and travel through the vast savannah stopping at prime viewing areas like Hippo Pool, the Kruger Tablets, and the Red Rocks.
Day 6
Kruger National Park/Greater Kruger Area
Spend another day on a safari drive through Kruger National Park. Please note there is also the option to embark on the safari in a 4x4 vehicle instead. Later, sit down for a traditional dinner with the group and take part in some local dancing.
Day 7
Greater Kruger Area/Johannesburg
Spend the day in the Lando enjoying the scenery en route to Johannesburg, which is also South Africa’s largest city. There will be some free time in the evening to find a place for dinner on your own.
Day 8
Johannesburg
Depart at any time.
