About this trip
An overland route through Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia, built around wildlife, wilderness and time under an open sky rather than ticking off cities.
Days centre on Chobe National Park, where hippos, crocodiles and elephants gather around the water, and on a wilderness camp where you learn survival skills from local San people.
It's a compact eight days that moves through big, open landscapes — a small-group way of covering a lot of ground without over-scheduling it.
What you'll do
- Watch hippos, crocodiles and elephants at the water in Chobe National Park
- Learn wilderness survival skills from local San people

Your free day in Victoria Falls
Landing early, staying on, or filling free time? The best-rated day experiences in Victoria Falls — you book on Viator (we may earn a commission).
Worth it if you want immersive wildlife and Delta camping with a solid group vibe. Think twice if you need clear pricing upfront and consistent vegetarian catering.
- Okavango Delta bush camping and Chobe game drives genuinely outstanding; guides Nina, Robbie, and Mike excellent at group dynamics and local knowledge.
- Hidden costs throughout: meals not included despite itinerary suggesting local food options, compulsory Delta 'tip' unlisted, expensive forced purchases when no alternatives exist.
- Vegetarian catering inconsistent and poor; despite advance notice, some received only vegetables while others got steaks, leaving dietary needs unmet.
- Day 8 Botswana-to-Namibia drive offers no actual Namibia experience; early morning starts often followed by hours waiting around at new locations.
