Explore a variety of biomes
A biome is a community of animals and plants that share common characteristics for the environment in which they live. Biomes can include a variety of habitats and as such, support different animal and life forms. This package covers several biomes enabling you to enjoy a wide diversity of wildlife in a single trip.
Experience a walking safari
This package includes the opportunity to take a walking safari, which is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the world of plants, seeds, insects, reptiles and animals and gain insight into a larger complex ecosystem. Not to mention the thrill of experiencing the size, scent and sounds of an untamed animal in the wilds. Please note walking safaris are subject to seasonal conditions.
See the mighty Victoria Falls
One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, the locals call Victoria Falls “Mosi-oa-Tunya”, which means "smoke that thunders" in honour of the roar of the water plunging into the Zambezi River below. You will now be able to tick Victoria Falls off your life’s bucket list.
Explore the Okavango Delta
Explore Botswana’s prized jewel, the Okavango Delta. Over 11 000 km3 of seasonal floodwater travels from the neighbouring Angolan Highlands to fill this inland river basin creating a home to more than 2 000 plants, 450 bird, 65 fish and numerous large mammal species. Take to the waters during flood season which offers unique opportunities to experience the Delta's diverse wildlife and stunning landscapes. Please note water-levels may affect availability of water-activities.
Our packages are inclusive of meals, selected alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, wildlife activities, conservation levies and internal transfers
