AFRICA SAFARIS & WILDLIFE CRUISE

ZAMBEZI QUEEN AND WILDLIFE VIEWING BOAT IN THE PRESENCE OF CHOBE RIVER ELEPHANTS

THE CHOBE RIVER

Stare wide-eyed as Africa’s largest population of elephants freely swim and splash about. Listen to the grunt of the hippo resting nearby, the calls of more than 450 native bird species or the sight of zebras and giraffes roaming by the water. This is just a fraction of what you will experience on the Chobe River, which supports a diversity and concentration of wildlife unparalleled anywhere else on the continent. The life-giving Chobe runs through the northern part of Botswana’s Chobe National Park, passes through the game-rich “Four Corners” region where Namibia, Zambia, Botswana and Zimbabwe meet, and later tumbles over the precipice at Victoria Falls.

LIONESS SCOUTING THE AFRICAN WILDERNESS

SPECTACULAR PARKS AND RESERVES

Expansive natural reserves, such as South Africa’s 7,500 square-mile Greater Kruger National Park; Zimbabwe’s Hwange Game Reserve; and Tanzania’s iconic Tarangire and Serengeti national parks, also give you the chance to witness wildlife, such as Africa’s “Big Five” (lions, leopards, rhinos, elephants and water buffalo).

INCREDIBLE PEOPLE WITH FASCINATING STORIES

Equally as memorable to your Africa Safaris & Wildlife Cruise are the local people you will meet along the way – and their backgrounds will fascinate you. One such individual you may meet on our itineraries is Thulani Madondo, Co-Founder of Kliptown Youth Program, which has provided solid education assistance and more than 7,000 meals each week for over 900 children in Soweto since 2007. His story will forever touch your heart.

ASTOUNDING UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITES

Protected for their historical significance, ecological diversity or immense natural beauty, some of Africa’s most spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Sites can be explored on our itineraries. From Zimbabwe’s thundering Victoria Falls, one of the largest waterfalls in the world, to the massive Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area and Cape Town’s Robben Island Museum, we ensure our guests experience the very heart and soul of Africa.
