Introduction

This 7-night safari links three of Southern Africa’s most remarkable destinations: the Khwai River, the Chobe Enclave, and Victoria Falls. The trip begins on the Khwai River, a wildlife-rich area on the edge of Moremi Game Reserve. Here, game drives and night drives take you along river channels and floodplains where elephants, lions, leopards, and African wild dogs are often seen. Birdlife is prolific, and the variety of habitats makes every drive different.

From Khwai, travel north to the Chobe Enclave, an area known for its large elephant herds and predator sightings. Game drives bring you close to wildlife at waterholes and open plains, while evenings around the fire offer time to take in the sounds of the bush.

The safari ends at Victoria Falls, where rainforest trails and viewpoints showcase the scale and beauty of one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. With the chance to add optional activities such as a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River, this is a memorable finale to a week in the wild.

Tour Highlights

  • Explore the Khwai River, one of Botswana’s most productive wildlife areas, with game drives along floodplains and river channels.
  • Experience night drives in the Khwai surrounds, with the chance to see nocturnal animals such as civets, genets, and owls.
  • Watch elephants in large numbers in the Chobe Enclave, a key corridor where herds gather around waterholes.
  • Search for predators including lions, leopards, and wild dogs in both Khwai and Chobe.
  • End the trip at Victoria Falls, walking rainforest trails and viewpoints to experience one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
