Begin your unforgettable journey with two exhilarating days in Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Marvel at the breathtaking beauty of "The Smoke That Thunders" on a guided tour through Victoria Falls National Park, where misty rainbows and thunderous cascades create a truly awe-inspiring experience. As the sun sets, indulge in a premium dinner cruise on the tranquil waters of the Zambezi River. Sip on fine wine and savor gourmet cuisine while drifting past hippos and crocodiles, with the golden hues of the African sunset painting the perfect backdrop. These two days are the perfect blend of adventure, luxury, and natural wonder. We will also have a bit of down time to acclimate. Optional add ons such as a falls helicopter ride can easily be added.

Your adventure continues with a scenic light aircraft transfer from Victoria Falls to the heart of Hwange National Park, where Verney’s Camp awaits. Nestled under a shady grove of teak trees, this classic safari camp offers an intimate connection to the wild. Over the next three days, embark on twice-daily game drives led by expert guides, giving you the chance to witness elephants, lions, and an incredible array of wildlife in one of Zimbabwe’s richest ecosystems. Between safaris, relax and savor freshly prepared meals and refreshing drinks, all served with the warm and attentive hospitality that defines the African safari experience. Verney’s Camp offers the perfect balance of comfort, authenticity, and untamed wilderness.

Next, journey deeper into the wild as you transfer to Deteema Springs Camp, located in one of Hwange National Park’s most predator-rich regions. Known for its rugged beauty and high concentration of big cats—especially lions—this area offers thrilling wildlife encounters around every corner. Spend your days exploring the surrounding landscape on expertly guided game drives, where sightings of lion prides, leopards, and cheetahs are frequent and unforgettable. The camp itself is perched above a natural spring, drawing a steady stream of animals right to your doorstep. Between adventures, unwind in the comfort of your tented suite and enjoy gourmet meals and sundowners with a view, surrounded by the raw sounds and sights of Africa's untamed heart.

Your safari adventure reaches new heights as you board a light aircraft and then transfer by road across the border into Botswana, arriving at the stunning Ngoma Safari Lodge in the world-renowned Chobe National Park. Perched on the edge of the Chobe River floodplain, Ngoma offers sweeping panoramic views and has recently undergone a luxurious remodel in 2026, blending modern elegance with the charm of African design. Each spacious suite features a private plunge pool, indoor and outdoor showers, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the wild beauty of Chobe right to your doorstep. Spend your days on immersive game drives and river safaris in search of the region’s famous elephant herds, and return each evening to gourmet dining, exceptional service, and the soothing sounds of nature. Ngoma is the perfect finale to your journey—sophisticated, serene, and steeped in safari magic.
