It’s clear we just can’t get enough of Africa based on everyone’s requests and how quickly these trips are filling up! This is a trip designed to experience the finish line of Africa's greatest migration - the Okavango Delta! Millions of animals and hundreds of species find their way to this part of Botswana to soak up the waters revealed annually by natural flows.
After several days of luxury safari, the trip continues to South Africa's tourist paradise - Cape Town. The city is one of the most popular places to visit on the continent. Expect to enjoy dramatic coastline, vibrant city life, historic sites, Table Mountain, and a trip west of the metro area along the world-famous garden route.
