Cape Town, Victoria Falls & Botswana Holiday - 13 Days

Contact a specialist about our cape town victoria falls and botswana holiday

The following twin centre holiday includes a stay in three different countries, South Africa, Zambia and Botswana. Beginning in South Africa you will spend 5 nights in the Cape region exploring the beautiful city of Cape Town and the famous Winelands. From here it is time to experience Zambia's famous Victoria Falls before venturing into Botswana's Okavango Delta and the Linyanti / Savute regions which offer some of the greatest wildlife viewing not only in Botswana but Africa as a whole.

If you have more time to spare and would like something a little different you could add on a desert experience in the Kalahari or Makgadikgadi regions of Botswana.

Below is simply an example of how to combine these three regions. Mahlatini will tailor a trip along these lines choosing locations and hotels that meet your individual requirements.
