This 16-day journey through Southern Africa takes you from the thundering majesty of Victoria Falls in Livingstone, Zambia, to the wildlife-rich plains of Botswana’s Chobe National Park and Okavango Delta. After immersing yourself in the beauty of nature, travel to vibrant Gaborone and the bustling metropolis of Johannesburg, where you’ll experience a mix of culture and urban adventure. The trip culminates with a thrilling New Year’s celebration in Cape Town, exploring its scenic coastline and iconic landmarks. It’s the perfect blend of safari, natural wonders, and unforgettable city moments!

Hi everyone! My name is Faith, and I’m a solo traveler and travel blogger, always on the hunt for new or repeat adventures. I’m beyond excited to share this incredible journey with all of you. I’ve explored this route before and can't wait for that deja vu moment. This trip feels special – combining the best of nature, wildlife, and vibrant cities. I’ll be documenting the experience along the way. I’m looking forward to enjoying the adventure and sharing it with you all!

On this journey, you’ll experience a variety of accommodations (Just like what you see in the pictures)that perfectly blend comfort and the essence of each destination. In Livingstone, enjoy the rustic charm of tented accommodation near the Zambezi River, offering an authentic wilderness vibe with modern comforts. In Kasane, you'll stay in a bush lodge’s tented accommodation, immersed in nature and close to wildlife. Transition to charming chalets in a bush lodge in Maun, providing a cozy, safari-inspired experience. As the trip progresses, we shift to urban retreats with city guest houses in both Gaborone and Sandton, offering a more intimate, relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the cities. Finally, wrap up the adventure at a beach guest house in Cape Town, where you can unwind with coastal views. Each person will have their own room, though couples are welcome to share, ensuring privacy and comfort throughout the trip. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
