Safaris, houseboats and thundering waterfalls

This trip is all about the element of water: immerse yourself in the diversity of Botswana and experience safaris on land and water. The first few days are spent on a classic safari in an off-road vehicle or on the water in a mokoro. The journey then continues on a small houseboat on the Chobe River. Observe the animals from your cabin and take trips to the banks in the small tender boats to see which animals are drawn to the water. At night, you will be lulled to sleep by the gentle waves and the grunting of the hippos. At the end of the journey, the thundering waters of Victoria Falls await you - the harbingers of "the thundering smoke" can be seen and heard from afar

Day 4 - 7

Cruising Chobe River

Today you continue with the small bushhopper - this time to Kasane airport. From here, you will be taken by land and boat to your accommodation for the next few days. The small houseboats travel leisurely back and forth along the Chobe River between their mooring points. Watch the hippos as you brush your teeth. The small tender boats bring you even closer. Enjoy the days on board.

Day 8 - 9

Victoria Falls

Today you leave the small houseboat for your last stop. You return to Victoria Falls. Here you will spend the last two nights of your journey. A must here: of course a visit to the "thundering smoke" or Mosi-oa-Tunya as the Victoria Falls are called in the Kololo tribe. Enjoy a final sundowner cruise on the Zambezi, a last safari before the journey comes to an end here in Victoria Falls.
