Get under the skin of Botswana by heading in to two of its most beautiful and wildlife rich areas before spending a few days relaxing at the iconic Victoria Falls to round the trip off.

This trip highlights the very best of what both Botswana and Victoria Falls have to offer; amazing wildlife, stunning landscapes to explore and a wonderful range of activities. With some wonderful places to stay thrown in to the mix, this is the ultimate adventure whether you are travelling as a couple, a group or friends of even as a family.

You will start your adventure with a flight from the safari town of Maun in to the Khwai Concession, a stunning wildlife area which borders the world-famous Moremi Game Reserve. The advantage of staying in Khwai is that they don’t have the restrictions in place in Moremi, so you can enjoy both night drives and guided walks, which really enhance the safari experience. From Khwai you will fly north to the wilds of Linyanti, a breathtaking wetland area renowned for its unique wildlife viewing experiences, especially the superb lion sightings. From your base in a remote corner of the region you will explore with your guide and enjoy some of the most incredible game viewing experiences you could ever wish for. Next up will be a flight to Kasane where you will be met and transferred across the border in to Zambia for a stay on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River. Here you can sit back and relax, as well as take the chance to explore the region. As well as trips to the Victoria Falls you will be able to enjoy all manner of activities – the perfect way to round off any trip to Africa.

The safari and Victoria Falls combination is a superb way to enjoy some time in Africa, blending adventure and wildlife viewing with plenty of time to relax from some of the most delightful properties that the two countries have to offer.
