Deserts, Deltas and Game Parks (YVC)

Overview

24 days between Cape Town and Victoria Falls or vice versa...

Nothing can prepare travellers for the beauty of the landscape in Zimbabwe and Botswana.  After visiting the mighty Victoria Falls, this trip travels south to Zimbabwe’s Hwange and Matabo National Parks where a local guide will show you the best that the region has to offer. In Hwange, after a visit to a conservation project for wild-dogs, you will take a traditional open top jeep safari though this classic bush park. In Matobo, it’s time to leave the vehicle behind and trek to see bushman cave paintings before taking a walking safari in search of white rhino, a truly incredible wildlife experience. Crossing into northern Botswana you head for the stunning Makgadikgadi Pans, camping at a lovely little campsite for a couple of nights to allow you to explore this fascinating area. Entering the Okavango via Maun, and overlanding through Namibia, you’ll spend 2 nights camping in Etosha National Park before heading south through South Africa to finally finish your journey in Cape Town.
