The Cape Town to Victoria Falls has been our most popular tour for the last 8 years. There is a good reason for this – it is simply the best tour on the market – great value for money and packed with highlights – this is the perfect tour for a first or fifth visit to Africa! Starting in Cape Town and including the Namib Desert, Etosha National Park, the opportunity to visit Botswana’s two biggest attractions – the Okavango Delta and the Chobe NP – the tour ends in Victoria Falls - one of the world’s seven wonders.
Day 1 South Africa – Cederberg Mountain Region

the vehicle and equipment.
Day 2 Namaqualand – Gariep River
Camp B,L,D
We travel north through Namaqualand
and head for the Gariep River. The Western Cape is soon left behind and we
spend most of the afternoon traveling through the Northern Cape Province of
South Africa. The night is spent on the banks of the Gariep River around the
campfire, getting to know one another. The Gariep River forms the border of
South Africa and Namibia and is used widely for agricultural irrigation in this
arid area.

The Fish River Canyon is 161 km in length and runs from Seeheim to Ai-Ais.

Day 4 Namib-Naukluft National Park
Camp B,L,D
From the canyon we continue on into the remote Namibian hinterland. We arrive

fire.

Those of us who decide to join the Delta Excursion will leave the truck behind and make our way to the base camp. From here we will enter the Delta the following day by using local transport, including mokoros (dugout canoes). Your guides will provide you with a briefing about the next few day’s activities, the environment and the community run tourism operation. If you remain behind then you spend the next few days relaxing at camp.
