ITINERARY: |
|
Day 1
Depart USA
Depart the USA on your overnight flight to London.
Day 2 Enroute
Arrive in London early this morning, where day rooms are
available for freshening up. Later this evening, depart on
the overnight flight to Lusaka.
Airport Sun Inter-Continental
Day 3 Arrive Lusaka-South Luangwa (D)
Arrive in Lusaka early this morning. Welcome to Zambia!
After you have cleared customs and immigration, you’ll be
met and transferred for the short light aircraft flight to
Mfuwe International Airport. Your guide awaits at the
airport for a scenic drive to your camp overlooking the
Luangwa River. You’ll have time to settle in and enjoy lunch
or afternoon tea (depending on what time you arrive). Later
this evening, enjoy a night game drive.
Nkwali Camp
Day 4 South Luangwa (BLD)
Enjoy a hot bowl of porridge around the campfire at dawn
before setting out on your morning game drive or walk. South
Luangwa National Park is the largest of four parks in the
Luangwa Valley. The valley is a rift valley similar to that
in East Africa, although it is believed to be older. Thanks
to its rich volcanic soil, the valley has a rich,
diversified vegetation - which in turn supports a large
number of herbivores. On your game drives or walks, you
might spot some of the animals that are unique to this area,
like puku, which is one of the smaller types of antelopes.
Return to the camp around mid-day for lunch and perhaps a
siesta before a night game drive to take a peek into the
nocturnal animal world.
Nkwali Camp
Day 5 South Luangwa (BLD)
Choose your activity for today. You might want to take a
picnic lunch and explore further afield in the park. Another
“special” animal to watch for is the Thornicroft’s giraffe.
These giraffe differ from the Maasai or Rothschild’s giraffe
- their legs below their knees are almost white and their
faces are quite light or white. The main part of their body
is covered in dark patches, while their neck is covered in
lighter patches.
Nkwali Camp
Day 6 South Luangwa-Livingstone (BLD)
Bid farewell to the Luangwa Valley and board your light
aircraft flight to Livingstone (via Lusaka). Upon arrival,
you will be met and transferred to your lodge overlooking
the Zambezi River. This afternoon, choose from a variety of
activities - perhaps a sundowner cruise on the Zambezi?
Nkwali Camp
Day 7 Livingstone (BLD)
Rain slickers are appropriate as you start the day with a
tour of nearby thundering Victoria Falls! Every minute over
144 million gallons of water cascade down 324 feet to the
Zambezi river below. After a tour of the Falls, you may wish
to visit nearby Mukuni Village where you can see first hand
the local way of life.
The River Club
Day 8 Livingstone-Okavango Delta (BLD)
A light aircraft flight takes you over the Falls as you fly
to Kasane and then to your intimate camp deep in the
Okavango Delta. From your birds-eye vantage point, you get
your first glimpse of the wetland paradise spread out below.
The River Club
Day 9 Okavango Delta (BLD)
Days are unstructured in the Delta. Depending on the water
levels, you might choose to game view by water or by land.
Some camps offer game walks, a super way to gain a different
insight into the wildlife of the area.
Choice of Accommodations
Day 10 Okavango Delta (BLD)
A final day in the Delta allows time for your choice of game
viewing activity.
Choice of Accommodations
Day 11 Okavango Delta-Depart (B)
Bid farewell to this amazing labyrinth of channels as your
light aircraft flight takes you to Maun where you continue
to Johannesburg and then overnight to London.
Day 12 Arrive USA
Arrive in London this morning and connect to your flight to
the USA, arriving back later today. |
