Highlights

The Ultimate Water & Wildlife Combination: Experience the world's most powerful curtain of falling water at Victoria Falls, then cross seamlessly to Botswana to explore the continent's highest concentration of elephants and predators along the life-giving Chobe River—a perfect pairing of natural wonders.
Safari by Boat and Land: Embark on two distinct wildlife adventures: a serene morning boat cruise in Chobe for intimate, water-level encounters with bathing elephants and hippos, followed by an exhilarating afternoon 4x4 game drive across the park's diverse floodplains and forests in search of lions and large herds.
Breathtaking Transnational Sunsets: Witness legendary African sunsets from two iconic vantage points: first from the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, and then from the deck of a boat on the Chobe River, where the sky ignites in color over a panorama of drinking wildlife.
A Seamless, Immersive Journey: Enjoy the ease of a single, cohesive itinerary that masterfully blends two countries and ecosystems without the hassle of self-planning. This curated flow from thrill to tranquility allows for deep immersion in each unique environment, maximizing your sense of adventure and discovery.

Day 1 :

Arrival into the Mist

Afternoon: Your personal guide meets you on arrival at Victoria Falls Airport (VFA) or your local hotel with a warm welcome. Transfer to your handpicked lodge in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

Late Afternoon: The First Roar of the Falls. Step into the spray with an introductory guided walk along the Victoria Falls rainforest paths. Feel the thunderous vibration and witness the sheer scale of "Mosi-oa-Tunya."

Evening: Sundowner Serenity. Enjoy a tranquil sunset cruise on the upper Zambezi River. Watch elephants, hippos, and birdlife against a blazing African sunset, followed by a curated welcome dinner at a premier local restaurant.

Chobe by Water & Land

Morning: Cross-Border Safari Begins. After an early breakfast, embark on a scenic transfer to the Botswana border. After a seamless assisted crossing, enter Chobe National Park.

Afternoon: A Feast in the Wild & Land Adventure. Disembark for a delicious buffet lunch at a scenic lodge overlooking the river. Then, climb into an open 4x4 safari vehicle for an afternoon game drive through the Chobe’s diverse ecosystems—from floodplains to teak forests—in search of predators, buffalo herds, and the park’s famous big cats.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Expand all

How does the cross-border transfer between Zimbabwe and Botswana work, and what are the visa requirements?

We handle all logistics for a seamless crossing. Our guide will assist you through the border formalities at the Kazungula border post. Visa requirements vary by nationality. Many passports can obtain Zimbabwe and Botswana visas at the border for a fee (approx. $30-$75 USD each, subject to change). It is critical to verify your specific visa requirements with us before travel and to ensure your passport has sufficient blank pages and validity (typically 6 months beyond your trip).

What is the accommodation style in Botswana versus Zimbabwe?

In Victoria Falls, you’ll stay in a comfortable, safari-style lodge or boutique hotel focused on convenience and atmosphere. In Chobe (Kasane, Botswana), your lodge is strategically located for wildlife access, typically offering river views, pool areas, and a classic safari camp ambiance. Both provide en-suite facilities and reflect the authentic character of each location.

Are meals and drinks included throughout the trip?

Yes, the itinerary includes full board (breakfast, lunch, dinner) while in Botswana, and specified meals in Zimbabwe (e.g., welcome dinner, some breakfasts). Bottled water is provided on all activities. Premium beverages, spirits, and drinks at the lodge bar are generally not included unless specified.

What should we pack for the two distinct segments of this trip?

Pack for dual environments: Victoria Falls town is casual. For all safari activities, neutral-colored, lightweight clothing (long sleeves/pants for sun and brush protection), a warm layer for morning/evening game drives, a hat, sturdy shoes, binoculars, and a quality camera are essential. Don’t forget your passport, visa cash in USD (clean, un-torn bills), and adapters for plug types D/G (Botswana) and G (Zimbabwe).
