Botswana & Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls | Okavango Delta | Kalahari Desert

Botswana

The awe-inspiring majesty of the Victoria Falls and the abundance of wildlife in Botswana’s remote, almost untouched, wilderness areas offer a dizzying mix of luxury, romance and adventure. Founded on encouraging exclusive, low-impact eco-tourism, Botswana is justly renowned for superlative safaris.

Fly-in safari

Depart on an overnight to Johannesburg. On arrival, connect with the morning flight to Livingstone for a three-night stay in a stunning honeymoon suite in the romantic Islands of Siankaba, in the Zambezi River, upstream from the majestic Victoria Falls.

Travel into Botswana for three nights in a spacious and tented room at intimate Selinda Camp in the Linyanti, a wilderness area outstanding for game and remarkable for predators - including hippo-eating lions, cheetah and leopard. Enjoy the spectacle of the wildlife passing over the floodplains from the privacy of your large verandah; capture the sights and smells of the bush on morning and evening game drives in open Landcruisers and bush walks.

A scenic flight by light aircraft transfers you to intimate Kwara Camp for a three-night stay on a forested island in a private concession in the Okavango Delta. The honeymoon suite has a special bathroom with an antique slipper bath on the traditional ball and claw feet. Track big game in open safari vehicles and by boat; glide through the permanent waters in a dug-out canoe.

Fly to Deception Valley Lodge for three nights’ exploration of the enigmatic Kalahari landscapes with San guides. Experience one of Africa’s oldest cultures and admire the ancient skills that enable the Bushmen to survive in this harsh environment. Game-viewing is easier in the dry season, but what passes for a rainy season in the Kalahari brings a miraculous burst of wildflowers, a profusion of butterflies and great birding.
