The Best of Botswana and Victoria Falls

Inspirational safari holiday to Zambia and Botswana

Discover two of Africa's natural wonders, Victoria Falls and the Okavango Delta in one thrilling safari. Also included is a stay in Botswana's Linyanti region with its extremely high concentrations of wildlife. Throughout the trip, you will be pampered in luxury accommodations offering personalized service and expert guiding.

Begin at one of the 7 official natural wonders of the world, the Victoria Falls in Zambia. Stay at Toka Leya and enjoy the dramatic views of the Zambezi River from your expansive deck. Once you have ticked the Falls off your bucket list, you can relax, rejuvenate, or pump up your adrenalin in a host of fun-filled activities in the area. Your Botswana safari follows. You will split your time between the astounding game-viewing areas, the Linyanti / Savute region, and the Okavango Delta flying between them in a light aircraft. These 2 very diverse safari experiences both offer outstanding opportunities for big game viewing and birding seen from activities such as game drives, walks, boat trips, and mokoros (dug-out canoes). Savuti Camp and Qorokwe Camp are both perfectly located for an exclusive experience of this incredible special part of the world.
