Cape, Desert & Delta
This is an epic journey across South West Africa, on which you travel from highlight to highlight. Go sightseeing in South Africa's scenic Cape region, climb massive sand dunes in Namibia, and learn about traditional cultures in the Kalahari Desert. In Botswana's Okavango Delta you'll observe game on guided walks and cruise the waterways in a dugout canoe before finishing in Zambia at the natural wonder of the Victoria Falls.
Escape into untouched wilderness
After exploring cosmopolitan Cape Town you’ll walk in the rugged mountains of Cedarberg. Heading north you cross into Namibia and gaze into the Fish River Canyon, comparable in size to the Grand Canyon, and climb the towering red sand dunes at Sossusvlei, the highest in the world. The seal colonies and rugged cliffs of this desert coastline are simply amazing.
Game Drives & Victoria Falls
Travelling inland you’ll experience the best game parks in the world! In Etosha NP discover elephants, herds of antelope and lion around the waterholes. Crossing into Botswana you overnight at a Bushman settlement in the Kalahari before exploring the unique ecosystem of the Okavango Delta by mokoro (dugout canoe) and on foot. The finale to this amazing journey is “the smoke that thunders” - Victoria Falls.
