Embark on a 42-day journey through Africa, where you’ll create memories to last a lifetime.

Begin your adventure in the vibrant city of Cape Town, then journey northward through Namibia’s arid lands. Marvel at the incredible Fish River Canyon and explore the breathtaking dunes of Namib Naukluft Park.

Discover Swakopmund’s coastal charm and engage in adrenaline-fueled activities amidst the desert landscape. Venture into the plains of Etosha National Park before gliding through the Okavango Delta on traditional mokoros, encountering hippos and crocodiles up close.

Explore the diverse habitats of Chobe National Park and witness the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls. Journey to South Luangwa National Park, particularly famous for its high concentration of leopards, offering excellent opportunities for sightings.

Continue to Lake Malawi, known for its crystal-clear waters, golden beaches, and vibrant marine life. Then, experience the exotic allure of Zanzibar, wandering through the spice-filled streets of Stone Town and relaxing on the tropical beaches of Nungwi.

On the homeward stretch, descend into the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, marveling at its abundant wildlife and stunning landscapes. Finally, conclude with a wildlife spectacle at Serengeti, experiencing the timeless beauty of Africa’s most renowned safari destination through thrilling game drives amidst its iconic plains.

Accommodation

Enjoy comfortable lodge accommodation.

On this tour, you will sleep at comfortable 2-3 star lodges. In some areas we use permanent safari tents which are equipped with beds. Rooms usually offer en-suite bathrooms and are twin share. If you are a solo traveler (or odd number traveller) then you will need to book a single room as sharing with other guests is not an option.

Remember to bring your own towel, as it may not always be provided.

If your trip visits East Africa, be prepared for more rustic accommodations compared to Southern Africa. You might find yourself going without hot showers, sharing bathrooms, spending long hours on the road, and needing to buy your own drinking water. Despite these challenges, the charm of the local people and the stunning natural beauty, make it all worthwhile.

This tour offers both accommodation and camping options. If you prefer to sleep in a tent, we recommend choosing the camping option. To view details on the camping option please click the link below. (Both campers and lodgers will travel together in the same overland vehicle.)
