Safari summary

Safari starts in Windhoek and ends in Victoria Falls
This is one of our most popular safaris. It provides a great combination of some of Southern Africa’s biggest attractions. We will start in Windhoek and after a four day visit to Etosha National Park which is Namibia’s and one of Africa’s biggest and best known parks, we will continue up to the Caprivi Strip of Namibia. Here we will explore the lesser known Bwabwata and Mahango National Parks as well as the big rivers in the Caprivi, the Okavango, Kwando and Zambezi Rivers. Finally, we will move on to Chobe National Park in Botswana and finish off in Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. We will do lots of game drives and boat cruises and stay in top quality lodges along the way. We can extend this safari to include Sossusvlei and Damaraland in Namibia as well as the rest of Botswana and/or Zambia.

Itinerary

Day 1

DAY 1: Windhoek to Etosha National Park After breakfast at your hotel in Windhoek, your guide will load your luggage into the vehicle, and we will set off northwards towards our exciting first destination of this safari; Etosha National Park!

Day 2

DAY 2: Etosha National Park (Southwestern side) We will explore the southwestern side of world famous Etosha park today, going for a morning drive after breakfast and returning to our lodge for lunch and a break in the heat of the day. We will return to the lodge after our afternoon game drive to enjoy dinner. Remember to look up before settling into your bed tonight – the African night sky, undisturbed by city lights out here in the bush, is truly amazing.

Day 3

DAY 3: Etosha National Park (Southwestern to eastern side) We have another full day to enjoy Etosha today, but we will also slowly make our way to the eastern side of the park, where we will overnight today. We will stop at Halali camp in the middle of the park for lunch. Tonight we will be at another comfortable lodge just outside the park’s Von Lindequist gate in the east, where we will sit around a fire after dinner, chat about the day’s sightings and enjoy a spectacular African night sky.

Day 4

DAY 4: Etosha National Park (eastern side) We will enjoy morning and afternoon game drives in Etosha’s game-rich eastern section today, returning to our lodge in the heat of the day for lunch and to relax. After another fantastic day in the park, we will return to our lodge and freshen up. We will then enjoy dinner and a good night’s rest. Tomorrow we are off to the Caprivi!

Day 5

DAY 5: The Okavango River We will leave Etosha relatively early this morning after breakfast, making our way northeast. The Caprivi with its lush green woodlands and big wide rivers is completely different from what we have experienced in Etosha, and a further illustration that Namibia is not all dust and sand!It is a long drive for us today to get to the western side of the Caprivi, but it will be worth it. Our lodge is situated on the banks of the mighty Okavango river.

Day 6

DAY 6: Bwabwata and Mahango National Parks After breakfast this morning we will do a mixture of game drives in Bwabwata and Mahango National Parks, as well as a boat cruise on the Okavango river if we didn’t do one yesterday afternoon. Between game drives we will have lunch back at the lodge while enjoying more stunning views of the Okavango river. We will also return to the lodge for dinner and another night under the great African sky.

Day 7

Chobe

DAY 7: The Kwando River We start the morning with breakfast after which we proceed further east along the Caprivi Strip. After a drive of about 3 hours we will reach our next lodge and have lunch. It is situated on the banks of the beautiful Kwando river. In the afternoon we will explore this section of the Bwabwata National Park, or maybe even venture into the Mudumu National Park, with a mixture of game drives and boat cruises. Tomorrow we cross the border into Botswana!

Day 8

Chobe

DAY 8: Chobe National Park After breakfast this morning you will be transferred to Kasane, driving through Katima Mulilo, the unofficial capital of the Caprivi Strip and a town that played a vital role in the South African Border War. After settling in at your lodge in Kasane you will enjoy a sundowner drink while revelling in the great view over the Chobe river.

Day 9

Victoria Falls

DAY 9: Chobe National Park Your entire day is dedicated to exploring Chobe! You will do a game drive and a boat cruise and depending on the time of the year, you will decide which to do first.
