Days 1 to 4: Victoria Falls – The Smoke That Thunders
The best way to reach Victoria Falls is by flying to Johannesburg, followed by a short two-hour flight to Victoria Falls Airport (Zimbabwe) or Livingstone Airport (Zambia). We recommend arriving in Johannesburg the night before, as flights to Victoria Falls typically depart in the morning.
You can stay on either the Zimbabwean or Zambian side of the falls—both offer fantastic experiences, but Zimbabwe has the best views of the waterfall. This itinerary is based on a three-night stay at a four-star, mid-range hotel within walking distance of Victoria Falls National Park.
Upon arrival, enjoy a guided tour of the falls or explore at your own pace. Dinners are at your leisure, with excellent restaurants available in town or at your hotel.

Book your activities in advance with us to secure availability—we charge no additional booking fees.
While two to three nights at Victoria Falls is ideal for most travellers, we can extend your stay if you'd like more time to enjoy these experiences.
Days 4 to 6: Safari in Chobe National Park
On Day 4, take a scenic road transfer across the Botswana border to Kasane, the gateway to Chobe National Park. The journey takes just over an hour, depending on border formalities, and often includes wildlife sightings en route.
Your two-night safari stay will be at a beautiful lodge overlooking the Chobe River, where all meals and safari activities are included.
