    The itinerary was very fast-paced. We packed in a lot of great experiences. I enjoyed the small group size. Our energetic CEO Shaun was fantastic and kept us up to date on the itinerary and what to expect from day to day. He was very knowledgeable. It was a trip of a lifetime! Definitely add to your bucket list!

    This tour was the best compared to the other trips available online and only had 5 days of camping compared to others. Although it's action packed it also felt relaxing and you will have an unforgettable experience in each country. We were extremely lucky with our kind and knowledgeable CEO Kirstie and would recommend asking for her if you do this trip! Our highlights were victoria falls in Zimbabwe, the safari cruise in Botswana and camping in the delta (camping was in large tents and you slept in your sleeping bag on stretchers off the floor), hiking the dunes in Namibia and Safari drive in Etosha! We saw lions, rhinos, giraffes, hippos,elephants crocs and many more! The trip requires early starts with a wake up time usually between 5.30-7am, it's not physically demanding apart from if you hike the namibian dunes. There are very long drives around 7-9 hours when you have to cross into Namibia and Cape town. It is best to have USD cash in Zimbabwe but everywhere else it's better to have a travel card. For each place they will take you to an ATM but in some countries it's difficult to find a bureau for exchange. Most breakfasts are included but there's lots of additional costs for lunches (this will mainly be in SPAR supermarkets) and dinner (mainly at the hotels/ lodges) and optional activities mainly in Botswana and Namibia. You'll also need to factor in tipping all your guides, drivers, meals etc into your costs. Overall, this tour was incredible and would highly recommend it to others!

    I dont eat any meat at all so I am wondering what the food will be like.

    Meals

  • P

    Peter

    Asked on March 22nd, 2025

    Is it possible for us to arrive in Johannesburg on July 21st at around 1:00 p.m. and is it possible to leave from Victoria Falls on July 28th at around 1:00 p.m.? Do you accommodate three people in one tent, or do you need two? If the group is to consist of at least 10 people, is it possible that the trip will not take place if there are fewer? Can we make a preliminary reservation at the time of purchasing the plane tickets?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      You are able to arrive anytime on day 1 and depart anytime on day 8 so arriving and departing around 1:00 pm will work! Only two people can share a tent. Since you have an odd number of travellers in your party, let us know if you/someone would be happy sharing with another solo traveller of the same gender on the tour free of charge OR if you would prefer to add the 'My Own Room' single supplement, we can do so for an additional cost. All of our trips are guaranteed departures and have no minimum amount of travellers needed. If you would like you can hold your spot on the tour for 48 hours before applying payment.

    • P

      Peter

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      So how can we pre-book the aforementioned trip for 24 hours and does it cost anything?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      It is a no-obligation hold so no payment is needed! In order to hold the space instead of clicking 'confirm dates' you can choose 'hold space for 48h' on the website next to the date you are interested in!

    • P

      Peter

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Can additional attractions be booked at a later time?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten March 2025

      Yes, you can add on any pre-bookable activities later.
