Zimbabwe & Botswana

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Zimbabwe and Botswana together form one of Africa's premier safari destinations, anchored by iconic landmarks like Victoria Falls — one of the world's largest waterfalls — and the vast Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site teeming with wildlife. Botswana is renowned for its high-quality, low-volume ecotourism, with the Chobe National Park and Moremi Game Reserve offering some of the continent's best elephant and big-game sightings. Zimbabwe draws travellers to Hwange National Park, the ancient ruins of Great Zimbabwe, and adrenaline activities around Victoria Falls including white-water rafting and bungee jumping. Together, these two countries offer a compelling mix of wilderness, culture, and adventure for both independent explorers and group travellers.

Zimbabwe & Chobe Safari Self-Launched: Victoria Falls to the Okavango

A do-it-yourself version of G Adventures' 11-day Zimbabwe & Chobe Safari, running from Victoria Falls through Hwange and Chobe National Parks and finishing in the Okavango Delta near Maun. You'll swap the operator's private group transport and lodge stays for intercity coaches, shared safari vehicles, budget lodges, hostels and tented camps, and self-booked activities (Victoria Falls day tours, walking safaris, Chobe river cruises, mokoro trips). Same wildlife, same landscapes, same iconic experiences — booked your own way at a fraction of the group-tour price. All costs are approximate per person in GBP.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Zimbabwe & Botswana 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."
