Starting in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, this 22-day journey sees you relaxing in tropical Zanzibar, trying your hand at water sports at Lake Malawi, and visiting the adrenaline capital of Africa, Victoria Falls.

You then finish off your trip with spectacular game drives in the Chobe National Park, Botswana, and the Kruger National Park, South Africa.

Dar es Salaam is Tanzania's main port and a hub of commerce and industry. Set up camp on a beach just outside the city and spend some time exploring its vibrant markets while you prepare to head out to Zanzibar.

Zanzibar is characterised by winding cobbled alleyways, lush tropical forests, and sandy white beaches lined with leafy palms, but it has an intriguing past to go along with its tranquil beauty. The island was once a major trading centre for spices and slaves, as well as a base for many of the 19th century explorers who journeyed to Africa - including the likes of Burton, Speke and Livingstone.

A variety of activities can be enjoyed during your stay. Take the popular Spice Tour, relax on the beach, or go snorkelling and diving off beautiful coral reefs in the company of flamboyantly coloured tropical fish.

Cross back onto the African mainland and spend a further night in Dar es Salaam. Then drive across country towards Malawi, passing through the compact Mikumi National Park en route.

The enormous Lake Malawi covers almost a fifth of the country's area, providing a livelihood for many Malawians - regarded by travellers as some of the friendliest people in Africa.

Camp beside the sparkling waters of the lake for a few days, mingling with the locals, relaxing on the beach and enjoying a variety of water sports.

Leave Lake Malawi and head into Zambia. Cross the mighty Luangwa River and pass through the capital city of Lusaka, continuing on towards Livingstone.

Arrive here on day 13, set up camp on the lush banks of the Zambezi River, and get ready to visit the adrenaline capital of Africa - Victoria Falls.

At 100 metres high and 1.7 kilometres wide, the Falls are one of the 7 natural wonders of the world, and there's no shortage of excitement on offer here. From world-class white-water rafting and bungee jumping, to exhilarating hippo-dodging canoe trips and spectacular microlight and helicopter flights, this place is a highlight of any African safari.

From Livingstone, journey to Chobe National Park. Chobe is home to magnificent flora and fauna, but it is most famous for its staggering elephant populations. Some 40,000 of these majestic beasts are thought to roam the area.

A late afternoon cruise along the Chobe River provides the chance to spot hippo and crocodile basking in the shallows as elephant and antelope quench their thirst. It is also at this time of the evening that leopard and lion slowly rise from their slumber in anticipation of a fruitful night's hunting.

After a night in Chobe, cross the Kalahari of southern Botswana on the way to South Africa and the world-famous Kruger National Park. Spend 2 days here and embark on morning and afternoon drives, as well as a thrilling night safari. On the final day of the tour you leave the Kruger National Park and travel through the scenic Mpumalanga region, arriving in Johannesburg in the early evening.
