Introduction

This Safari is a journey of discovery that starts in the city of Gold, Johannesburg and you launch straight into high adventure with a Hot Air Balloon Safari over the Magalies River Valley and Wildlife Viewing in the Pilanesberg National Park on the very first day of your Safari in Africa.

We continue on into the Living Kalahari Desert to immerse ourselves in the San Culture. From this arid environment, we travel a mere three hours to the vast inland delta of the Okavango Delta located in North Western Botswana.

We meet another culture and a totally different culture of the Tswana people. We can enrich our lives in the silence of the floodplains of the Okavango Delta being poled along by a poler in the Mokoro "dugout" Canoe that is a central part of their culture.

The absolute highlight of your Safari is the interaction with the Meerkats at Ntentwe Pan and we finish our voyage of discovery at the spectacular World Heritage Site of Victoria Falls. Our last adventurous highlight of the Safari is a 20-minute Helicopter Flight over Victoria Falls and down into the spectacular Batoka Gorge.

You may need to consider another holiday now to recover from this Safari!
