You will be met this morning to start your scheduled tour of the falls. It’s a truly awe-inspiring experience – the sight, the sound, the smell; the humbling feeling that here indeed is Nature’s Supreme Masterpiece. Guests will be accompanied through the rainforest by one of our qualified Guides who will give a brief history of the falls s as well as detailing the flora, fauna, bird & wildlife and other points of interest. 

After this experience you will head nearby to enjoy a scheduled lunch at the Lookout Café. Perched on the rim of the Batoka Gorge, the Lookout Café is a fusion of spectacular views and exquisite food. The African Contemporary styled restaurant is designed to emphasize its unique panoramic view of the Victoria Falls Bridge and Batoka Gorge, which forms part of the spectacular backdrop. 

Return to your hotel with the rest of the day at leisure or ask us about pre-booking one of the many optional activities on offer.

Today after breakfast you will pack up and transfer across the border to Botswana and on to Ngoma Safari Lodge for the next three nights, a boutique lodge that offers unrivalled panoramic views over the game-rich floodplain and Chobe River. Expect a vast and diverse array of wildlife as knowledgeable guides take you on safaris through the Chobe National Park, lazy afternoons by the pool and stunning dinners under African stars.

Ngoma is set on a plateau, overlooking the Chobe River and floodplain. All eight thatched river-facing suites have spacious internal and external living areas, a large luxury bath, an inside and outside shower, air conditioning, overhead fans, mini bar, tea/coffee facilities including a Nespresso machine. In addition, each suite has a private ‘refresh and relax’ pool conveniently located in the external living area. All rooms are equipped with three-quarter beds that can be converted to a king size bed.

Game Drives
Game drives are conducted in the mornings and afternoon/evening, they can also be taken as a full day drive with picnic lunch. They usually last about three hours each and are conducted along the river systems of the Chobe area. The wildlife in the area is prolific and chances are good to see some of the larger predators, herds of elephant and buffalo. Night drives are conducted in the early evening offering one a chance to see the smaller more nocturnal animals with spotlights on the Chobe Forest Reserve.

Boat Safaris
Adventurers can recline in comfort on a riverboat cruise, as it gently navigates over the still water of the Chobe River. Revel in the breathtaking scenery of a sun drenched sky brushed with myriad pink hues, whilst sipping on decadent cocktails mirroring similar tints. The cruise affords guests an opportunity to view the Park’s wildlife from an unusual perspective, as they congregate around the river edge. Marvel at the mighty elephant splashing in the shallows, the dramatically horned roan antelopes grazing near the shore and the stealthy lions that rule over the plains.

After a chance for a last morning game drive and breakfast you will be transferred to Kasane airport for your flight to the Khwai airstrip. On arrival you will be met by your guide and transfer to Machaba Camp for three nights.

Machaba Camp is a traditional style camp nestling in the game-rich Khwai area. The Khwai Concession is a 35 000 hectare reserve located in the north eastern section of the world-famous Okavango Delta and it shares its westerly border with the Moremi Game Reserve. Nestled in a riverine tree line, the camp offers privacy, spectacular river views and excellent food – enveloped in a layer of warm hospitality. Should you wander away from the comfort of camp you can spot a wealth of land and water-based wildlife.

Game Drives
Game drives are conducted in the mornings and afternoon/evenings at camp. They usually last about three hours each and are conducted along the river systems and flood plains around the camp. The wildlife in the area is prolific and chances are good to see some of the larger predators, herds of elephant and buffalo and all the plains animals that occur here. Night drives are conducted in the early evening offering one a chance to see the smaller more nocturnal animals with spotlights.

Walking
Walking safaris are also conducted generally in the morning with armed guides. The walks are leisurely and time is taken to observe the smaller things in the bush that one normally misses when driving. Walking is weather dependent, or dependent on the condition of the terrain.

Mokoro Safaris
This is a dug out canoe poled by an experienced poler in the shallower waters of the Okavango. It is a great way to see the waterways and is tranquil and quiet. These excursions take place in the mornings or longer day trips can be arranged. Explore the islands around camp and come back rested and rejuvenated.

Please note water activities are subject to sufficient water levels in the Delta.

After a last morning safari activity and breakfast you will be transferred to the airstrip for your flight to Maun. On arrival at Maun you are assisted for your onward flight.
