Join a small group on this 12 day safari through the wilds of Botswana, travelling overland between comfortable lodges and intimate safari camps. Beginning and ending at Victoria Falls, this journey spans the vast salt pans of Makgadikgadi, the wildlife-rich floodplains of Moremi and the waterways of the Okavango Delta. Explore Moremi Wildlife Reserve by open 4x4, where elephant, buffalo, lion and abundant birdlife thrive across plains, lagoons and woodland. In the Delta, glide by traditional mokoro through channels and lagoons, experiencing Botswana’s iconic wetland landscape at water level. The safari concludes along the Chobe River, home to one of Africa’s largest elephant populations, where a sunset cruise offers close-up wildlife viewing as animals gather at the water’s edge.

This is an outstanding tour that involves significant road travel, superb landscapes and wildlife sightings together with excellent accommodation. Our guide (Nonki) is a lovely lady who treated us very well while maintaining the schedule appropriately.
Absolutely incredible!
This trip is run by one of our local partners, on a departure shared with travellers from other companies.
What's the benefit to you? More departure dates, and dates that reach their minimum numbers sooner, because bookings from several companies go into one group. Your guides live and work in the region.
Who is in your group? Expect a mix of travellers and nationalities, not only people who booked with World Expeditions.
What will we tell you when you book? We advise the name of the local partner at the time of booking, along with any terms of their own, such as an additional deposit. These apply alongside our Booking Terms and Conditions.
Travelling alone? On some partner-operated trips your own room is required. The room options on this page show which applies to this trip.
Based on twin share rooms with private ensuite facilities, these accommodations will provide an extra element to your holiday memories. They may be a collection of individual bungalows or a series of adjoining rooms, based around a central main dining and lounge area.
Safari lodges and permanent tented camps that reflect the character of the area with sublime views and plenty of comfort.
Every departure date advises whether the date is confirmed, and roughly how full it is. Here is what each one means.
If a date shows Guaranteed to go, it runs regardless of further bookings.
It means two travellers are enough to confirm the departure. It could be 2 more to add to the group, or the date only needs 2 people to run. Either way, if you book for two people, the date will become guaranteed to run.
You will know the status before you book. Every date on this page is labelled, and dates marked “Guaranteed to go” are running regardless of further bookings. Where a date has not reached its minimum we either offer a surcharge to operate for a smaller group size so it can still run, or we cancel it. We contact you directly either way.
If we cancel a departure due to not meeting minimum trip numbers, you receive a full refund of everything you have paid us less any non recoverable costs, where insurance may cover you. We cannot refund money committed elsewhere – additional non refundable deposits advised at the time of booking, flights, visas, vaccinations, gear - which is why it is worth waiting for “Guaranteed to go” before booking other arrangements around this trip date. Please read our Booking Terms and Conditions before you book.
Each trip closes online a set time before departure. Permits, internal flights and hut or campsite bookings all have to be arranged before we take payment. Call or enquire as it might still be possible to organise last minute places.
Cancellations happen and places do open up on closed dates, so it is worth being on our list. We can also tell you which nearby date on the same trip has space, which is usually the faster route.
Yes, as a private departure. We can run this trip on a date you choose, for your own group - family, friends, a club, or in many cases, just for the two of you. Tell us when you want to travel and who is coming, and we will build it around that.
Africa's wildlife is wild and unfenced. On many wildlife safaris you may meet them on foot, or from a vehicle. Walking in big-game country carries some risk, and the safeguards are not the same in every country.
Rules on firearms, guide qualifications, group size and how close you may approach an animal are set country by country, park by park. Many incorrectly assume that every wildlife safari in Africa travels with an armed ranger. Several countries prohibit firearms outright. Where an armed escort is required, it is supplied by the park authority.
What is consistent is how these trips operate. You walk in a small group with a professional local guide who knows the country and the animals in it. We do not include captive or hands-on wildlife encounters in any itinerary.
Here is what actually keeps you safe on foot and in a vehicle, why the rules differ by country and park, and how to ...
Your safari vehicle can make or break the experience - ours are purpose-built for comfort, safety and unbeatable wildlife viewing.
