A day-by-day breakdown of what to expect and where you'll be staying.
Day 1, Johannesburg to Timbavati
An early departure from Johannesburg as we start our scenic drive through Mpumalanga and the breathtaking vistas of the
Lowveld. Blyde River Canyon, God’s Window and Bourke’s Luck Potholes will be some of today’s highlights.
Day 2 to 3, Kruger National Park
An early morning as we visit a wildlife rehabilitation centre before entering the world famous Kruger National Park. We spend the next 2 days game driving through the park taking in the bush sights and sounds as we search for the 'Big 5'.
Day 4 to 5, Kruger National Park to Nata (via Polokwane)
We travel north west and head to the Polokwane Game Reserve which we explore on foot. The next day we cross the border to Botswana and make our way to Nata; skirting the edges of the Makgadikgadi Pans.
Day 6, Nata to Livingstone (via Kasane)
Driving through Kasane, we cross into Zambia and settle just outside Livingstone. Get the adrenaline pumping and enjoy plenty of optional activities while we stay here.
Day 7, Livingstone
With a day full of adventure, be sure not to miss the Bungee from Victoria Falls bridge, World class White Water rafting or abseil down Batoka Gorge. For the less adventurous there is horse back safaris, elephant back safaris, and the ever popular 'Flight of the Angels'.
Day 8, Livingstone to Chobe National Park
We cross the border into Botswana and head to Kasane where we set up camp on the banks of the Chobe River. The Chobe River forms a border between Botswana and Namibia and Zambia. Listen out for the resident hippos!
Day 9, Kasane to Kasane (via Chobe National Park)
There is the option of a early morning game drive should you wish to spot some game as they come out for a drink in the cool, crisp morning. After lunch we have the option to jump on a boat for a cruise along the Chobe River, to spot some more of the world's largest mammals and some of the smallest bird species.
Day 10, Chobe National Park to Maun
Today, after an early morning start, we travel to Maun - the base camp for the Okavango Delta region. We pass by the stark and endless-looking Makgadikgadi Pans so keep an eye out for Elephant and Giraffe as well as birdlife.
Day 11, Okavango Delta
Today is a free day for you to spend at your leisure. The variety of optional activities range from game walks to swimming. Relax and take in the beauty of your surroundings.
Day 12, Okavango Delta
Early morning and late afternoon game walks give you time in the middle of the day to relax, chill out and enjoy your surroundings. Why don't you have a go at poling your own mokoro? It is not as easy as it looks!
Day 13, Maun to Khama Rhino Sanctuary
We drive south and visit the Khama Rhino Sanctuary, established to breed with both White- and Black Rhino. We take a game drive to view these amazing creatures as well as other grazing animals.
Day 14, Khama Rhino Sanctuary to Johannesburg
We make our way south to the bustling city of Johannesburg where our tour will come to an end.
