Nairobi to Cape Town Nairobi to Cape Town Overland

This trip is the perfect blend of wildlife and culture, exploring the great game parks of East Africa and getting to meet the locals on community projects that we support. Rather than just go for a game drive in the Serengeti we actually camp out in the park for 2 nights, and you shouldn't miss the chance to go game viewing from the air on a hot air balloon safari, as well as seeing the Ngorongoro Crater. We explore the stunning Usambara Mountains, visiting small villages and going on walks through the surrounding bush, before heading to the beaches of the Indian Ocean, ending the trip on the idyllic and exotic island of Zanzibar.

Southern Africa is home to some of the continent's finest game reserves, and travelling overland means that we can stay right in the heart of the wildlife hotspots. Beginning at the magnificent Victoria Falls, we'll take a safari in Chobe National Park, which feels like walking into a wildlife documentary - all the animals you could ever hope to see are here. In the Okavango Delta we'll canoe through lush waterways threading through the wilderness, and you can get up close to the game in mokoro canoes. We head overland across the Kalahari to Namibia for a stay with the Bushmen, and camp in the superb Etosha National Park before travelling down the forbidding Skeleton Coast. We'll journey through the starkly beautiful Namib Desert, crossing into South Africa and ending our unforgettable trip in Cape Town.
