Arrive into Victoria Falls Airport and be met for a private road transfer to the iconic 5 star luxury Victoria Falls Hotel to spend 2 nights in a Classic Room including breakfast.
Built in 1904, the historic Victoria Falls Hotel is an icon, its gracious colonial architecture leading out to expansive terraces and lawns overlooking the Victoria Falls Bridge. Décor includes the memorabilia and old-world charm of a bygone era, a nod to the pioneers and explorers whose fame lives on, immortalised in the hotel’s elegant style.
Using the mist from the Falls as a beacon, stroll through attractively landscaped gardens along a private pathway, to the scenic Victoria Falls rainforests. High Tea is served on the terrace, a delightful tradition which fits so well with the atmosphere and ethos of this luxurious hotel.
We highly recommend you embark on a two hour Sunset Cruise on the Zambezi Royal to experience the sights and sounds of the Zambezi River. This is a spacious and contemporary cruise boat seating a maximum of 28 guests.
Depart Victoria Falls by private road transfer travelling west to cross the border into Botswana. Then take a light aircraft deep into the bush to Selinda Private Reserve where you will be met at the airstrip for your 4×4 transfer into Selinda Explorers Camp.
Spend 3 nights in a Meru style tent, fully inclusive with its expedition-style decor complete with ensuite bucket showers and flushing toilet. With the wildlife viewing activities mainly focused on guided walks and canoe trips followed by open vehicle game drives, this area is a wildlife hotspot which is home to huge herds of elephant and buffalo. It is here that lion, the endangered African wild dog, sable and roan antelope are all spotted on a regular basis.
Depart Selinda Explorers Camp and take a scenic light aircraft flight to the Okavango Delta.
The Delta is a heavenly waterworld teeming with animal and birdlife! It lies in the heart of Botswana’s Kalahari desert and exists due to the Angolan rains flooding down the so called pan handle each year and fanning out into a myriad of water systems.
Spend 3 nights at Shinde Camp in a Classic Luxury Safari Tent, fully inclusive of all meals, drinks and safari activities.
Nestled on a lush palm island in the heart of the northern Okavango Delta, Shinde is an intimate, classic camp located on the edge of Shinde Lagoon, which simply teems with animal and birdlife. Shinde is so well located in the delta that it offers both land and water based game viewing activities. This is a super combination allowing for 4×4 game drives with your personal guide in specially designed game viewing vehicles, as well as motorboat and mokoro safaris to explore this aquatic wonderland. We ensure maximum of 4 guests in each vehicle. On top of that adventure, there are also walking safaris and fishing enthusiasts can try their hand at catching tilapia or tigerfish.

This classic camp, consisting of four custom-designed tents, transports us back to authentic safaris, but with a modern twist and hospitality. The camp’s focal point is the Bedouin-style main area consisting of a lounge and separate dining room.
Subtly placed under the shade of the riverine forest, the camp is designed in the style of the early explorers both in philosophy and practice. Whiling away afternoons under the canopy of African ebony and mangosteen trees, interspersed with walks and canoeing, make this a respite from the ‘daily grind’ of a traditional safari.
This authentic tented camp draws on traditions of the classic East African safari with beautifully detailed campaign style furniture made from recycled hard woods, and soft furnishings from Zanzibar and the East.
The custom-designed semi-permanent tents consist of two rooms plus veranda, as well as a private open air ‘bustani bathroom’ with hot water bucket showers and flush loo. All tents are at ground level, including the main lounge and dining area. This is an unassuming camp, light on its footprint but heavy on its experiential luxury.
The atmosphere of the camp is one of bush elegance with relaxed bohemian style, complemented by attentive staff, private professional service and fabulous food.
