VICTORIA FALLS
Area Overview
Victoria Falls is the 7th wonder of the world! Located in Zimbabwe, situated in the heart of Southern Africa and entirely landlocked. 12% of its land is allocated to National Parks and Game Reserves.
Undoubtedly, the country's most iconic attraction is the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world, locally known as Mosi-oa-Tunya, or the "Smoke That Thunders" because of the spray made by the mass of water dropping 100 meters below in the gorges. Victoria Falls is twice the size of Niagara Falls and stretches across a significantly longer distance. Visitors can get up close to the falls, but be prepared to experience some splashing.
The Victoria Falls, now in it's 150 millionth fantastic year, - its zenith in about May each year. It’s a truly awe-inspiring experience—the sight, the sound, the smell—and the humbling feeling that this is indeed nature's supreme masterpiece. No photograph can begin to depict reality. And nothing prepares you for your first sight. .
The Victoria Falls present a spectacular sight of awe-inspiring beauty and grandeur on the Zambezi River, forming the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe—the largest sheet of falling water in the world and significant worldwide for its exceptional geological and geomorphological features and active land formation processes with outstanding beauty attributed to the falls, i.e., the spray, mist, and rainbows.
David Livingstone was the first European to see the Victoria Falls in 1855. The Scottish explorer is believed to have been the first European to view the falls, and he named them Victoria Falls in honor of Queen Victoria.
While in Victoria Falls, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy a delightful cruise on the Zambezi River for a different perspective of the falls, especially during sunset. You can also opt for a thrilling helicopter ride over the falls. For a unique experience, consider having afternoon tea at the classic Victoria Falls Hotel. Additionally, if you're interested in shopping, Victoria Falls is an excellent place to purchase local souvenirs, artwork, and handcrafted carvings.

DAY 4-6 | Linyanti Wildlife Reserve
LINYANTI WILDLIFE RESERVE
Safari Days
📍 Linyanti Bush Camp
LINYATI WILDLIFE RESERVE
The Linyanti River is a permanent watercourse and is thus a magnet for the wildlife of northern Botswana and a destination for migration from the dry areas of northern Botswana. Game viewing is therefore excellent, especially during the dry winter months when surface water from rainfall has disappeared in other areas.
In terms of fauna, lion is common along with spotted hyena. Leopard frequent the larger trees in the riverine forest. Antelopes such as kudu, impala, reedbuck and steenbok will be found all year round. The area is a stronghold of waterbuck; these are found in few other areas. Giraffe are stalwarts here as are warthog and baboon. Wild dog traverse the area and are most likely to be seen in July and August in the Linyanti.
The presence of large game in this region significantly increases during the dry season, attracting substantial herds of impala, blue wildebeest, giraffes, and buffaloes, along with the world's highest concentration of elephants. The area is also home to multiple packs of wild dogs, and sightings of lions, leopards, and cheetahs are frequent occurrences. Nighttime drives present opportunities to encounter nocturnal creatures like civets, genets, honey badgers, and spring hares.
ACTIVITIES
Morning and afternoon game drives will deliver excellent game viewing experiences and since the Linyanti, Selinda and Kwando reserves are privately-managed, you'll be treated to off-road driving for close-up encounters as well as exciting night drives and guided nature walks.
Safari days!
A typical day on Safari in Africa! Each day on safari in Africa is a magical experience, whether you’re exploring the savanna on foot or in a 4x4 vehicle in search of the Big 5 or taking to the sky in a hot-air balloon to witness the Great Wildebeest Migration. Every single day is steeped in the promise of a unique adventure and cherished memories.
Although each day is unpredictable to a certain extent, based on the time of year or location, there is a general format or schedule that safaris tend to follow, but, as a rule, safaris do follow a familiar rhythm that combines thrilling game viewing with ample time to relax in between—a dream vacation in anyone’s book. One rule of thumb is that there are usually two game drives a day: one in the early morning and one in the late afternoon, when animals are at their most active.

LINYANTI EBONY CAMP
Linyanti Ebony Camp is a place for travelers who want to experience Africa as it once was—wild, remote, and deeply immersive. Tucked away in a private concession on the edge of the Linyanti Marshes, the camp offers an extraordinary sense of exclusivity, with vast open landscapes, minimal vehicle traffic, and some of Botswana’s most diverse wildlife. Elephant herds move through the area in impressive numbers, predators thrive, and game viewing feels unhurried and intimate. With expert guides and flexible safari activities, every drive, walk, or water-based excursion feels tailored and personal rather than routine.
What truly sets Linyanti Ebony Camp apart is the balance it strikes between raw wilderness and understated luxury. Spacious, airy tents blend seamlessly into the environment, offering comfort without breaking the connection to nature. Days unfold at a gentle pace—sunrise game drives, afternoons listening to birdsong from your deck, and evenings spent around the fire under vast, star-filled skies. This is a camp for guests who value authenticity, privacy, and meaningful encounters with wildlife, leaving not just with photographs, but with a profound sense of having experienced one of Africa’s last truly wild places.

KHWAI REGION
Safari days!
📍 Khwai Lediba Camp
KHWAI REGION
A wildlife-rich and diverse ecosystem that offers a mosaic of lagoons, shallow flooded pans, open grass plains, and wooded woodlands is located on the boundaries of the well conserved Moremi Game Reserve. Without a doubt, one of Botswana's most picturesque regions is the Khwai region. Take advantage of the traditional Khwai village's cultural offerings while staying at Khwai Leadwood.
The Khwai Concession is a private reserve adjacent to the world-renowned Moremi Game Reserve, separated from this reserve by the Khwai River. Dominated by grasslands, permanent flood plains and large areas of Mopane forests and home to large herds of elephants take their bath next to hippos, whilst being watched by lechwe antelopes. As the Khwai concession lies outside the parks, it offers the freedom and flexibility normally only possible with the heavier price tag of a private concession. Go off road for a closer look at sightings, night drives in search of nocturnal species, and with a little advanced planning, head out on game walks to check wildlife on foot!
During the dry season, many animals migrate down from the Linyanti area because the Khwai River provides a reliable source of water, attracting many antelopes, giraffes, buffalos, and zebras. There are also numerous bird species, particularly egrets, cranes, vultures, and various eagle species that specialize in catching catfish.
ACTIVITIES
During your time here, you’ll spend most days exploring the narrow Khwai river, which forms the natural boundary to the Moremi Game Reserve the south. The Khwai river is a beacon for wildlife and plays host to leopards talking Letswe in the long grass, lions swimming from the banks to save their cups during territorial disputes and crocodiles competing with while dogs for a meal of Impala.

KHWAI LEDIBA CAMP
Full board, excl. premium drinks | Laundry included
Situated along the picturesque Khwai River, opposite the Moremi Game Reserve, this camp, formerly known to seasoned Botswana safari enthusiasts, has undergone a significant transformation. Now positioned further west within the Khwai Community Concession, it offers a completely new experience. While its simplistic design may evoke memories of Botswana's traditional safari era, when adventurous travelers camped in the wild, it has evolved considerably from its original nomadic concept.
Maintaining its stunning riverside location overlooking the wildlife-rich game reserve, Khwai Lediba now sits approximately half an hour west of Khwai Village, close to its sibling camp, Khwai Leadwood.
Surrounded by lush vegetation comprising majestic leadwood trees and riverine forests lining expansive floodplains and the Khwai River's banks, the area teems with wildlife year-round.
Serving as a crucial water source linking Botswana's northern reserves of Chobe and Linyanti with the Okavango Delta, the river attracts diverse wildlife species, including elephants, lions, leopards, and wild dogs. During much of the year, the floodplains transform into shallow lagoons adorned with water lilies, attracting numerous colorful bird species. Away from the river, pockets of mopane woodland interspersed with natural pans provide additional watering holes, drawing various animal species.
Featuring only 7 tented chalets, six doubles, and one designed for families, the camp retains its intimate atmosphere. Simple yet contemporary, the chalets feature unadorned poles supporting canvas shade roofs, set on slightly elevated wooden decks. Tented walls adorned with mosquito netting create an open ambiance, while en-suite bathrooms boasting indoor and outdoor showers allow guests to immerse themselves in the natural surroundings.
Activities at Khwai Lediba revolve around guided game drives in open-sided 4WD vehicles, whether during the early morning, late afternoon, or after dark. Depending on water levels, guests may also enjoy walking safaris or mokoro (dug-out canoe) excursions.
Guided game drives explore both the Khwai Community Concession and Moremi Game Reserve. In the private reserve of Khwai, guides may venture off-road for closer wildlife encounters and conduct spotlit night drives, activities not permitted in Moremi or Botswana's national parks. Similarly, guided walks vary in length and route based on wildlife movements and seasonal factors.
