Our compass then points to South Luangwa National Park, a crown jewel of Zambia’s tourism, before unfolding towards the magnificent Victoria Falls – a playground for thrill-seekers and nature lovers alike.

Get to know Botswana’s beautiful creatures, from cruising the Chobe River to canoeing through the Okavango Delta waterways., Head out on bush walks in the Khwai Conservation Area, and enjoy exciting game drives in the Moremi Game Reserve.
