About this trip

Three of Southern Africa's big draws in one trip: Cape Town, Kruger, and Victoria Falls, with Chobe thrown in for good measure. You start with Table Mountain and the coast, then fly north for proper Big Five safari territory.

Kruger means early starts, open-air game drives and campfire nights under wide skies. From there you head to Victoria Falls and the Zambezi for a change of pace, then Chobe for some of the densest elephant country in Africa.

It's a lot of ground covered in 11 days, but each stop earns its place — this isn't a checklist tour, it's three distinct landscapes that each show you something different.

What you'll do

  • Ride the cable car or hike up Table Mountain
  • Big Five game drives in Kruger National Park
  • Sunrise starts and campfire nights in the bush
  • Stand before Victoria Falls and take on the Zambezi
  • Watch elephant herds move through Chobo National Park
Good to know
  • Covers a lot of distance — Cape Town, Kruger, Victoria Falls and Chobe are all a flight or long drive apart
  • Early starts are part of the safari routine, not optional extras
  • Suited to travellers keen on wildlife and adventure over slow, single-base holidays
