    The experience was absolutely fantastic, camping at some of the most beautiful campsites I have seen and waking up to explore more of Africa's national parks and activities was a fantastic experience to have. The staff were great fun and alway fantastic at helping when there was ever a problem.

    Can't imagine a better way to get such a good insight into a complete different world within only three weeks. This way to travel is saving so much time, because you don't need worry about a thing, like travel preparations, transportation, accomodation and so on. Everything is being taken care of, but you still feel free to do the things you like, together with the friends you make within the group.

    Asked on January 7th, 2025

    Can we find flights to arrive by Livingston instead of Victoria Falls? How can we get to the camp site from Livingston airport? How long does it take and what is the cost? Can you also explain the camp facility, whether it is glamping with bathroom and shower in the unit, or not?

      We don't offer a transfer from Livingstone but you could always arrange that in advance locally, alternatively find a connecting flight to Victoria Falls. The drive itself is very short, around 30 minutes excluding any border crossing delays.
