Spend a few days discovering the great wonders of Botswana as you cover thousands of kilometres in an adventure overland truck to witness pure African magic. Sit back and enjoy the scenery from your window as you pass through various landscapes, and share your sightings with the other passengers.
This adventure African safari will have you sharing accommodation with other guests, and allows you to bond with them as you prepare meals and experience the Botswana wilderness together.
A representative will meet you at the departure location this morning and drive you to Etosha National Park. Take it easy, unwind, and relish the journey to Etosha National Park. Your Tour Leader will greet you at Etosha National Park and acquaint you with the tour, your truck, and other travellers.
The sound of thirsty animals making their way to the waterhole fills the peaceful evening spent in the reassuring glow of the setting sun, where your campsite is nestled on the edge of a waterhole.
After leaving Etosha, you travel through The Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA), an incredible transboundary conservation project that unites the areas of five African countries. You will spend the night on the Kavango River before continuing toward the border with Botswana.
Today you will take a leisurely boat ride on the stunning Kavango River before leaving for Maun, the town that serves as the entrance to the Okavango Delta. Spend the day viewing the landscapes and dusty roads from your window. After you have settled in to your Maun accommodation, you will prepare for your next adventure, the Okavango Delta.
Your epic exploration of the Okavango Delta starts today. Teeming with wildlife, the Okavango Delta is known as “the river that never finds the sea”, you will discover the channels of crystal clear waters that run over the arid Kalahari.
Sit back and watch as you spot red lechwe and sitatunga prance through this wildlife sanctuary. Mokoro boats allow you to fully experience the magic of the delta through sound and sight. Sit back and watch the action of the wilderness unfold as the mokoro sails through sparkling water channels.
Spend the day discovering the secrets of the Okavango Delta - one of Africa’s greatest natural wonders on a full-day game drive in Moremi Game Reserve. This evening you will arrive at Khwai to share and compare all the amazing sightings while on safari.
The Botswanan salt pans are passed en route from Khwai to Nata today. Before meeting the Nomad truck in Maun, you will pack up camp and leave at first light in the open 4x4 safari cars. The stunning scenery and rich cultural legacy of Botswana are on display throughout the picturesque trip from Maun to Nat
A wildlife encounter or two is always possible before you get to your overnight accommodation in Nata, so keep an eye out.
A guided drive this morning takes you to the Nata Pans, which serve as a breeding place for numerous water species, such as thousands of flamingos and pelicans (birds that migrate according to seasonal patterns).
After that, you will travel from the Nata Kalahari sands to Kasane, arriving in time for lunch and a little nap before leaving in the afternoon for Chobe National Park.
Chobe is renowned for its abundant elephants - you can admire these wonderful creatures at the riverfront. A leisurely boat cruise, followed by a meal around the campfire is the perfect way to end the day.
Leave behind Kasane and cross the border to Zimbabwe to see the Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River in all its glory. There are plenty of ways you can explore Victoria Falls. View the Zambezi River gushing through the Batoka Gorge, and venture on optional activities that range from adrenaline-pumping bungee jumping, a lovely high tea at Victoria Falls Hotel, shopping the craft markets, or a boma dining experience.
Spend your last day doing whatever excites you. Whether it is white water rafting, observing the smoke and thunder of the Victoria Falls from a helicopter, or exploring the attractions of Victoria Falls. Exchange telephone numbers with new friendships made.
This tour is a limited participation tour and your assistance is required with washing up duties, food preparation, loading and unloading of your own bag, keeping the truck and cooler box clean and general helping around camp.
