Itinerary

  1. Day 1

    Pretoria to Mpumalanga

    Your African adventure starts as you leave Pretoria and head east toward Mpumalanga Province. The landscapes shift and change as you travel, making your way to where the group tour begins. It's a long drive through different terrain, so settle in for the journey and get your first real sense of South Africa's geography.

    Meals
    Breakfast, Dinner
  2. Day 2

    Kruger National Park

    Early this morning you'll head out on an open vehicle game drive through Kruger National Park with a guide who knows the reserve inside and out. The park is home to over 500 bird species and 150 mammal species, so keep your eyes open and camera ready. You'll spend most of the day scanning for wildlife, and there's a good chance you'll see everything from big cats to elephants to zebras.

    Meals
    Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

    Included Activities

By evening you'll reach your campsite in Matobo, settling in for the night in this remote region.

  5. Day 5

    Matobo National Park

    Matobo National Park doesn't get as much attention as some other destinations, but it's worth the visit. You'll take a guided walk through the park with an expert who'll help you spot wildlife and navigate the landscape safely. The combination of natural scenery and historical significance makes this a worthwhile day to see something a bit different.

  6. Day 6

    Matobo National Park to Livingstone

    You'll travel through the Zimbabwean countryside toward Victoria Falls, then cross into Zambia to reach Livingstone. This is your final night with the group, so it's a good time to reflect on the week and spend time getting to know your fellow travelers. There's something special about that last evening together.

    Livingstone

    On your final day, you have choices to make. Victoria Falls is right there if you want to see it up close.

After that, your African adventure comes to an end.

    I found this to be such a touching experience. I really enjoyed being immersed into the culture and wildlife shown to me by each guide we came across, particularly Justin our leader and Gladman our driver. Justin made the experience safe, enjoyable as well as educational. Can’t wait to go back to Africa.

    What is the Adventure Pass?

    Other
    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten April 2015

      Every Overland tour has an Adventure Pass which is paid to your tour leader in Africa at the beginning of the tour (or pre-paid by arrangement prior to your tour). This is separate and in addition to the Tour Price, and covers selected park entries, activities and excursions along the way where payment goes directly to the supplier to ensure local suppliers benefit directly from the income.
