Inspirational natural wonders vacation to Botswana and Zimbabwe
This adventure safari trip combines two countries, Botswana and Zimbabwe, and three very different regions, the Okavango Delta, Victoria Falls and Hwange National Park. Fly by light aircraft into Gomoti Plains Camp and stay in an eco-luxurious canvas tent, perfectly situated to experience the land and water-based game-viewing opportunities and get to grips with all that the Okavango Delta has to offer. Sandwiched in the middle is a stay at Victoria Falls Safari Lodge, perfect for safari activities within the Zambezi National Park and close enough to visit the Falls for your obligatory photos.
Finally fly to Verney's Camp, offering designer tents in a private concession of the Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe. In this park, the size of the herds and the variety of animal species is spectacular where you will likely see buffalo and elephant herds, leopards, lions and African wild dogs.
