At the celebrated Sossusvlei Dunes, rising from acacia-dotted desert pans, hike the dunes as the morning light changes the colors from mauve to burnt orange, and explore by 4WD. Optional balloon safaris offer stunning aerial views.
In the heart of the lush Okavango Delta, search for wildlife by 4WD and mokoro (dugout canoe). An exclusive private reserve on fabled Chobe National Park’s western edge, Linyanti’s riverine forests, grasslands, and waterholes along the Savuti Channel are habitat for zebra, giraffe, buffalo, lion, wild dog, hyena, hippo, and more. Explore on guided walks, by 4WD, and from special gameviewing hides.
Experience the natural wonder of Victoria Falls, known to locals as Mosi-oa-Tunya, “The Smoke that Thunders.” Options include rafting, helicopter flights, and a sunset cruise. Depart on Day 14.
