Visit the iconic 'Smoke that Thunders' - Victoria Falls, where the mighty Zambezi River plunges an awe-inspiring 108 metres into misty gorges below. Then, head to the Chobe Riverfront in Chobe National Park, which hosts massive concentrations of elephants, hippos and other wildlife, including four of the Big 5 (lion, leopard, elephant and buffalo).
This safari offers epic wildlife viewing and cultural experiences. Enjoy activities every day, from river cruises on the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers to game drives, a helicopter flip above Victoria Falls and, for the more adventurous, bungee jumping and river rafting – and so much more.

Timing
The best time to safari in Botswana’s Chobe is during the cool, dry months from June to October, when wildlife gathers at scarce water sources. Victoria Falls is at its fullest from February to July (peaking in April). It offers the clearest visibility from August to January, when low-water levels create the ideal conditions to visit Devil’s Pool and go river rafting.

“Magical Hideaway”
Sonja Deutschendorff, AG German safari expert: "I absolutely loved Chobe Bakwena. It felt like living in a magical forest hideaway. Relaxing in the treehouse, surrounded by birdsong, with the Chobe River flowing below: all a short 15 minutes from Chobe National Park."
"Wild bliss"
Benjamin Lederer, AG Victoria Falls safari expert: "Sitting on the deck with a drink in hand, I watched buffalo at the waterhole as the sun set. In the distance, I could hear the thunder of the Falls."
"End in the Okavango"
Our destinations expert, Nadia Lautenbach, says, “Easily extend your safari to the magical Okavango Delta - after cruising the mighty Chobe with crocs and hippos, you could soon be gliding by mokoro through the reeds, spotting tiny jewel-like frogs.”
