Enjoy a walking tour to Victoria Falls, spanning both the Zambian and Zimbabwean sides. The thunderous roar of the falls can be heard over 40km away, and the spectacle of spray and mist rises to heights over 400m. It’s no wonder the local tribes once referred to this natural wonder as Mosi-o-Tunya, “The smoke that thunders.”

Sundowner Cruise on Zambezi River

In the afternoon, delight in a relaxing sundowner cruise on the Zambezi River. Cruise along the riverbanks, viewing the spectacular scenery of nature’s sanctuary. Keep an eye out for hippopotamuses, crocodiles, and a variety of wild birds, all while sipping your drink against the backdrop of an African sunset in brilliant shades of red and orange.

Fed by floodwaters from faraway Angola, this seasonal environment is home to a diverse array of species, including large herds, predators, and birds. Enjoy morning and afternoon activities in the Okavango Delta. Spanning 15,000 square kilometers of water channels, lagoons, and islands, this wilderness sanctuary is one of Africa’s most incredible natural wonders. Glide through the channels on mokoro or powerboat excursions, immersing yourself in the authentic and unobtrusive beauty of this wetland paradise. The delta’s wildlife is prolific, offering excellent opportunities to spot larger predators, herds of elephants and buffaloes, and a variety of plains animals.
