Zimbabwe/ Botswana Guided Tour Itinerary

Travel to Zimbabwe and arrive at Victoria Falls International Airport. Transfer from the airport to your hotel. After lunch, enjoy a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River.

Start the morning with a game drive in Zambezi National Park. The afternoon is at leisure. In the evening, enjoy a special dinner under the stars. This dinner is set far from the city lights near Zambezi Park, and after your meal you can enjoy beautiful Milky Way views.

Morning transfer to Hwange National Park. In the afternoon, enjoy a game drive. Overnight at Hwange Safari Lodge.

Spend the day on a full game drive in Hwange National Park with packed breakfast and lunch. Photo hunt for lions, leopards and elephants.

Today you will transfer to another majestic park in Botswana. Overnight at Kwalape Safari Lodge.

Enjoy a full-day game drive in Chobe, followed by an evening cruise, where you will have the opportunity to see animals coming down to the river.
