Botswana is Africa’s most exclusive safari destination, where camps and lodges accommodate less than 20 guests per night, ensuring that their experience on safari and inhouse is intimate and completely curated. This luxury vacation focuses on the game areas of Botswana; the cherry on top is an extension to magnificent Victoria Falls.

Arrive in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site situated on the Zambezi River between Zimbabwe and Zambia, spanning over 5,600 feet wide and dropping around 354 feet into the gorge below. Its immense beauty and powerful cascades make it a must-visit destination for travelers to Southern Africa. Your two-night stay in Victoria Falls includes a welcome sunset cruise on the Zambezi River during which you may see hippo and elephant, plus a private guided comprehensive walking tour of the Falls.

Cross the border to Botswana where you will spend two days game watching in Chobe National Park, renowned for its vast landscapes and diverse wildlife. Home to Africa's largest concentration of elephants, it offers exceptional game viewing experiences, including safaris and river cruises along the Chobe River. Chobe’s rich ecosystems make it a prime destination for nature enthusiasts and photographers alike. Your accommodation is at Chobe Game Lodge which has a unique all-female guide pool.

From Chobe, fly by light aircraft to Savute Marsh, renowned for its dramatic landscapes and prolific wildlife. Home to predators like lions and hyenas, as well as vast herds of elephants, it offers thrilling game drives and opportunities to witness the raw beauty of the Southern African wilderness. The Savute Channel is a dynamic waterway known for its fluctuating water levels. It attracts diverse wildlife, offering prime game-viewing opportunities amid its picturesque landscapes. You have three night at Savute Safari Lodge and three days to enjoy game activities in the area.

Finally, fly by light aircraft to Moremi Game Reserve, nestled within the Okavango Delta, a vast inland delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and one of Africa's most remarkable wilderness areas. The Delta’s labyrinthine waterways, lush islands, and diverse habitats support a plethora of wildlife, offering unparalleled safari experiences amidst breathtaking landscapes and pristine wilderness.

Moremi Game Reserve is a wildlife haven teeming with diverse ecosystems from lush floodplains to dense forests. Moremi hosts a rich variety of fauna, including the Big Five. Here, you have three nights at Camp Moremi and three days to enjoy a wide range of game activities, from drives, to walks, to dug-out canoe rides on the tranquil waterways of the Delta.

At the conclusion of your vacation, you will fly by light aircraft over the Delta to Maun where you can connect to Johannesburg or other fascinating Southern African destinations. May we suggest Cape Town?

Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi Game Reserve

Moremi, hunted by the Bushman as long as 10,000 years ago, was initiated by the Batawana tribe and covers some 4,871 km2, as the eastern section of the Okavango Delta. Moremi is mostly described as one of the most beautiful wildlife reserves in Africa. It combines mopane woodland and acacia forests, floodplains and lagoons. It is the great diversity of plant and animal life that makes Moremi so well known.

The idea to create a game reserve first originated in 1961 and was approved by the Batawana at a kgotla in 1963. The area was then officially designated as a game reserve in April 1965 and was initially run by the Fauna Conservation Society of Ngamiland. Moremi was then extended to include Chiefs Island in 1976. In August 1979 the reserve was taken over by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks. A further extension was added as recently as 1992 and now the reserve contains within its boundaries approximately twenty percent of the Okavango Delta.

Chobe National Park

Chobe National Park

The Chobe National Park, which is the second largest national park in Botswana, has one of the greatest concentrations of game found on the African continent. Its uniqueness in the abundance of wildlife and the true African nature of the region offers a safari experience of a lifetime. The park is divided into four distinctly different eco systems: Serondela with its lush plains and dense forests in the Chobe River area in the extreme north-east; the Savuti Marsh in the west; the Linyanti Swamps in the north-west and the hot dry hinterland in between. A major feature of Chobe National Park is its elephant population currently estimated at around 120,000. The Chobe elephant are migratory, making seasonal movements from the Chobe and Linyanti rivers, where they concentrate in the dry season, to the pans in the southeast of the park, to which they disperse in the rains.
Destination Guide
Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls

The town of Victoria Falls is a pleasant place, created for visitors. There are hiking routes and rental bicycles. There are also trinket shops, selling everything from cheap T-shirts to antique African musical instruments. Carvings of masks and animals are a tradition around the area (as is the bargaining required to purchase them for a reasonable price). The Victoria Falls Hotel, a short walk from the falls, still operates in full colonial splendor and should be seen even by those not staying there. Visit Crocodile Ranch and Craft Village - a fascinating glimpse into Zimbabwean culture. Visit Livingstone, just across the border in Zambia— more than just a tourist town and more character than Victoria Falls. Another appealing side trip is to Chobe National Park, in neighboring Botswana. Chobe is one of the finest game parks in the world.
