ITINERARY: |
|
Day 1
Depart USA
Depart the USA on your overnight flight to London.
Day 2 Enroute
Arrive in London early this morning where the day is at
leisure until this evening's overnight flight to
Johannesburg.
Day 3 Arrive Johannesburg
Arrive in Johannesburg late this afternoon. Walk directly
from the airport to your hotel located just across from the
terminal. The remainder of the evening is at leisure. -
Airport Sun Inter-Continental
Day 4 Johannesburg-Victoria Falls - BD
Transfer to the airport this morning for the flight to
Livingstone. After settling into your charming lodge, choose
from a variety of activities. You may wish to enjoy a game
drive in the Mosi-Oa-Tunya Park. - The River Club
Day 5 Victoria Falls - BLD
Activities at your lodge are flexible and personalized just
for you. You might want to start off the day with a visit to
the "smoke that thunders", spectacular Victoria Falls. The
Falls are over 5,500 feet across and more than 300 feet
high. Each minute, more than 150 million gallons of water
form an amazing "wall of water" as they crash to the gorge
below. Later, you might like to visit a local village or
perhaps visit the Livingstone Museum where many of David
Livingstone's notes are on display. - The River Club
Day 6 Victoria Falls-Okavango Delta - BLD
Transfer to Livingstone Airport and enjoy a scenic flight
over Victoria Falls and on to Kasane in Botswana. A light
aircraft transfer takes you over this wetland paradise to
your choice of camp deep in the heart of the Okavango Delta.
Later, choose from land-based or (if available) water-based
game viewing activities.
Day 7 Okavango Delta - BLD
One of the highlights of a stay in the Okavango is the
excellent bird-viewing. Pels Fishing Owl, reed cormorants,
house darters, kingfishers, fish eagles and much more dot
the reeds along the water-line. Why not take a mokoro
excursion and glide quietly through the water observing
wildlife along the way.
Day 8 Okavango Delta / Moremi Reserve - BLD
A change of pace today as you move to your camp in the
Moremi Reserve, a 275,000 acre sanctuary northeast of the
Okavango Delta. The Moremi is known for its population of
predators, so be on the watch for lion, cheetah and leopard
all on the prowl.
Day 9 Moremi Reserve - BLD
Moremi is well known for its large concentration of
elephants and you can spend an entire day observing these
gentle giants. Thanks to a project to save wild dog, Moremi
is one of the few places where wild dog is frequently
spotted, so keep your eyes peeled. The reserve is filled
with giant mopane trees, distinguished by their
butterfly-shaped leaves and their massive height which can
reach more than 80 feet high. You might want to take a
nature walk and learn more about the vegetation and flora
with a knowledgeable guide.
Day 10 Makgadikgadi Pans - BLD
The giant salt pans of the Makgadikgadi stand in vast
contrast to the fertile Okavango Delta and provide a unique
game-viewing experience. After settling into your camp, game
viewing might reveal species such as the brown hyena,
suricates, gemsbok and the great black-maned Khalihari lion.
- Jack's Camp
Day 11 Makgadikgadi Pans - BLD
Your luxury camp is reminiscent of a traditional East Africa
safari camp and provides the perfect base for your
exploration of the desert wildlife as well as the
archaeology of the area. Why not try a quad bike ride on the
salt pan - or a walking safari with bushmen trackers. The
choice is yours. - Jack's Camp
Day 12 Makgadikgadi-Cape Town - B
A light aircraft flight takes you to Maun where you connect
to the flight to Johannesburg, and on to Cape Town. - Cape
Grace
Day 13 Cape Town - BLD
Today enjoy a tour of the Cape Peninsula. Travel to the Cape
of Good Hope Nature Reserve and spend time exploring the
rocky coastline. Take the funicular ride to the lighthouse
at Cape Point and enjoy the magnificent views. Visit
Boulders Beach to see the African Penguin before returning
to Cape Town. Tonight, enjoy sampling a variety of
traditional dishes at the African Cafe. - Cape Grace
Day 14 Cape Town - BL
Spend the day exploring the wineland towns of
Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek, with wine tastings as
you go! Stop for lunch at one of the restaurants in the area
before visiting Boschendal. End the day with a wine-tasting
in Stellenbosch before heading back to Cape Town. - Cape
Grace
Day 15 Cape Town-Depart - B
The day is at leisure today until an early afternoon
departure for the airport to board your overnight flight to
London.

Arrive in London this morning where you connect to the
