South Africa, Botswana & Zimbabwe

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

South Africa, Botswana, and Zimbabwe form one of Africa's great multi-country safari corridors, spanning diverse landscapes from the Cape Winelands and Kruger National Park to the vast Okavango Delta and the thundering Victoria Falls. South Africa draws travellers with its world-class wildlife, vibrant cities like Cape Town and Johannesburg, and acclaimed food and wine scenes. Botswana is renowned for low-density, high-quality safari experiences across the Chobe National Park and the UNESCO-listed Okavango Delta wetlands. Zimbabwe anchors the region with Victoria Falls — one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World — alongside compelling cultural heritage and excellent game viewing in Hwange National Park.

Johannesburg to Victoria Falls: Self-Launched Overland Safari

An 8-day self-launched version of G Adventures' "Johannesburg to Victoria Falls Overland Safari & Participation Camping" — same route through South Africa, Botswana and Zimbabwe, but booked and travelled independently. Trade the tour truck for intercity buses and shared shuttles, the guided camp kitchen for your own tent and supermarket runs, and the group CEO for directly-booked local guides. You'll still sleep under big African skies, glide through the Okavango Delta in a mokoro, see the elephants of Chobe and stand at the thundering edge of Victoria Falls — for a fraction of the group tour price. All costs are approximate backpacker rates in GBP and exclude international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for South Africa, Botswana & Zimbabwe yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
