Tour Overview

Embark on an eight-day, once-in-a-lifetime wildlife adventure through Southern Africa that’s simply unmatched. Explore Zimbabwe’s Matobo National Park, tracking animals on foot and spotting wildlife from an open safari vehicle. Then, venture into South Africa’s Kruger National Park in search of the “Big Five” and immerse yourself in the rich traditions of the local communities. This is genuine Africa, unfolding right before your eyes.

Itinerary

Arrive before your tour starts and opt to get up close (and wet from the spray) while awing at the immense Victoria Falls, raft the whitewater of the mighty Zambezi, or for the more adventurous, bungee jump with Victoria Falls in view.

Itinerary Notes

This is a camping-style adventure, meaning most nights will be spent at campsites, with a few basic hotel or hostel stays at the beginning and end of the tour. While campsite facilities across Africa are generally comfortable, some locations may be more basic than others. Though a few days of “roughing it” may be challenging for some, the reward is unparalleled: sleeping under the African stars, being immersed in nature, and witnessing incredible wildlife right outside your tent—a truly unforgettable experience.
