Welcome to Southern Africa-Zimbabwe, South Africa, and Botswana.

On this bespoke journey >> https://bit.ly/44eYYrO our clients visited both Botswana and South Africa.

Here's some of the special experiences on the trip:

🏨Stay at the Silo, a Cape Town property overlooking the V&A waterfront. The historic converted grain silo is part of Liz Biden's Royal Portfolio collection of luxury hotels and lodges.

🐟Pass the charming village and fishing harbor in Hout Bay as you wind along a scenic coastal drive.

🌊Explore the flora and fauna of the Cape of Good Hope where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet.

🐧Wander wooden walkways to see penguins nesting amongst the rocks and splashing in the sea.

🍷Visit Cape Town's golden beaches, bountiful vineyards, and maybe even some golfing greens.

🐘Transfer to a private reserve within the Kruger area where there's an abundance of big game like lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino to see with expert rangers on walking safaris.

🦛Get up close to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe where you'll stay in a lodge with uninterrupted views of the crashing falls and the relaxing hippos.

🚁Soar over the falls in a helicopter, watching rainbows over the mile-wide Zambezi River plummeting into the huge chasm. These falls are twice as high and one and a half times as wide as Niagara Falls!

🛶Travel to Botswana where you'll stay in the game rich Duba Plains Reserve in the Okavango Delta. The camp here offers game drives, guided walks, and mokoro rides to experience this wetland ecosystem.

🦁In the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, learn about predators like the Kalahari black-maned lions and plains game.

🦒Go on morning and afternoon game drives in search of giraffe, leopard, and brown hyena.

🌿Learn about the wildlife with San Bushmen on an educational walk.

✨Sleep out on the deck for a unique safari memory to end this trip!
