On arrival into Maun Airport, you will be met and transferred to your accommodation. The name Maun is derived from the San word “maung”, which means “the place of short reeds”. The afternoon is yours to spend at leisure, either relaxing next to the pool at the lodge or if you are keen for some excitement, book a sunset cruise on the Thamalakane River.

Distance: 65 km Departure: 09h00

After breakfast, you will be transferred to Maun Airport to take a short scenic flight to Moremi Crossing, located near the southern most part of Chief’s Island, situated on a small palm fringed Island called Ntswi. The rest of the time in the Moremi Area is at your own leisure, with the freedom to partake in one of the many optional activities on offer, such as half or full day Mokoro trips, boat cruise, guided bush walks as well as game drives.

In the morning, you will take a flight to Kasane. Once you have arrived you will enjoy an appetizing lunch whilst sailing along the Chobe River on an afternoon boat cruise. Thereafter, you will be transferred to your lodge.
The following day, we will have plenty of time to explore the wilderness on a game drive while taking full advantage of the cool weather and optimal animal activity. The rest of the day is at own leisure where you can relax along the poolside and soak up some sun.

Today, you will be transferred to your lodge in Hwange National Park. You have the opportunity to continue your search for African wildlife on an half day game drive. The rest of the day is spent at your own leisure.

The following day, we start our morning off with a full day game drive where we will enjoy a wholesome lunch whilst taking in the beautiful fauna and flora of the park. Hwange National Park is one of Africa’s finest havens for wildlife and is home to massive herds of elephant, buffalo, and zebra, as well as a very large concentration of giraffe. It is also home to many predators and endangered species, and a diverse birdlife. We end the day off with a special safari painting experience, led by a professional artist, guiding you to create your own masterpiece whilst the sun sets over the horizon.

Distance: 103 km Departure: 07h00

Continuing our trip, we leave Botswana and drive to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Once settled in at your lodge, the rest of the day is spent at your own leisure. The following day, your guide will take you on a tour of the mighty Victoria Falls, known by the local Kololo tribe as Mosi oa Tunya- “ the smoke that thunders”. In the afternoon, we will partake in a potjiekos experience before cruising down the mighty Zambezi River at sunset, basking in the afterglow of the day and return to indulge in your mouth watering potjie creation.

Our safari ends after a delicious breakfast. You will then be transferred to Victoria Falls Airport in time for your departure flight. We hope to welcome you again one day on another of our African adventures.
