Cape Town to Joburg Adventure (DATJ)

Africa Zambia, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Botswana, South Africa

Like action, adventure and wildlife documentaries? Then you’re going to flat-out love this trip. The itinerary reads like a special double-issue of your favourite travel mag: towering sand dunes, impossibly deep canyons, game drives in Etosha, Kruger and Matobo National Parks, the bone-shaking roar of Victoria Falls, Shangaan village tour, campouts under a sprawling blanket of stars—and that’s just a sample! With expert CEOs and loads of optional activities available each day, you’ll run out of time before you run out of things to do, see and experience.

Highlights: Cruising the Okavango Delta in dug-out canoe, meeting the San Bushmen, marvelling at Fish River Canyon, gazing out across Victoria Falls, spotting the Big Five in Etosha and Kruger national parks, walking in search of rhinos and searching for wildlife from a 4x4 in Matobo National Park, witnessing Shangaan traditions, discovering the less-visited Zimbabwe.
