About the trip

This G Adventures National Geographic Signature journey sets off in Cape Town, where Table Mountain dominates the skyline and the Bo-Kaap’s colourful houses offer a glimpse of the city’s diverse history. Visitors engage with the city’s past, including a private tour of the Nelson Mandela Foundation and the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg.

The expedition moves north to the savannah of Kruger National Park and Thornybush Private Game Reserve in South Africa, with morning and afternoon safari drives that look out for the Big Five. Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe presents opportunities for a private guided tour and a dinner cruise on the Zambezi River, with the thundering falls nearby. The Chobe River in Botswana adds photo safari cruises to the programme.

Further immersion comes in Botswana’s Makgadikgadi Pans, where wildlife safaris continue over several days, before the journey concludes with motorboat and mokoro excursions through the channels of the Okavango Delta. The mix of activities and regions offers a paced introduction to Southern Africa’s landscapes and cultures, underpinned by expert guides throughout.
