The adventure
Two iconic countries, endless adventure — all in under two weeks. Kick things off in Cape Town, soaking up the views from the top of Table Mountain before jetting to Johannesburg for a full week of safari magic in Kruger National Park. Track the Big Five, feast on mouthwatering South African braai, and visit Jane Goodall’s Chimp Eden to learn about inspiring conservation efforts. Then, cross into Zimbabwe to feel the raw power of Victoria Falls up close. From vibrant city life to deep community connections and heart-pounding wildlife encounters, this trip packs Africa’s best into one unforgettable journey.
Arrive at any time. Attend an evening welcome meeting at the joining hotel before an optional group dinner.
Enjoy breakfast and then depart for Table Mountain. Ride to the top on the cable car and explore the area on hiking trails leading to scenic views before riding back down. Spend the afternoon on your own partaking in one of the many optional activities in the area. Tonight, choose to attend another group dinner to celebrate your beautiful day in this vibrant city.
Transfer to the airport in the morning and fly from Cape Town to Johannesburg. Settle in to your hotel and prepare for the next leg of your adventure.
Depart Johannesburg early to get a jump start on today's long drive. An included lunch along the way will break up the drive and give you a chance to stretch your legs. Arrive to your lodge accommodations in the late afternoon, just in time to freshen up for dinner with the group.
Wake up bright and early today for an included bush walk. Take this opportunity to get up close and personal with the incredible nature that surrounds you. Enjoy a picnic lunch after the walk and then a few hours of well earned rest back at the lodge. In the later afternoon set off on a safari drive to view the wildlife in Kruger National Park. When you return, enjoy an included Braai dinner to get a true taste of South African fare.
Enjoy an early start this morning to enter the park and enjoy the full-day safari drive through Kruger in search of the Big Five. After an exciting day out in the wild, arrive late afternoon to your lodge and enjoy some local fare during dinner this evening.
Another full day in Kruger awaits. Hop into a 4x4 to enjoy a more intimate wildlife safari drive, one offering a fresh perspective of the scenery and animals around you. Finish the day with a delicious dinner with your fellow travelers.
Spend a free day in the area and choose which optional activities are best for you. Possible options include a morning or afternoon safari drive in Kruger National Park, or a full-day tour along the Panorama Route to set those photography skills to the test. The route offers unbelievable views at every turn and traverses the Great Escarpment via thrilling mountain passes.
After breakfast at the lodge, witness first-hand the large role conservation plays in Kruger and the surrounding areas on an educational visit to The Jane Goodall Institute Chimpanzee Eden, commonly referred to as Chimp Eden. This animal sanctuary for rescued chimpanzees is located in the Umhloti Nature Reserve and a tour here is the perfect way to celebrate a visit to South Africa. Arrive to the lively city of Johannesburg in the early evening and enjoy a group dinner at the hotel.
Leave South Africa behind today and head to the epic wildlife and scenery of Zimbabwe. After breakfast the group will travel to the airport in Johannesburg and catch a flight to Victoria Falls. Upon arrival, there will be free time to get settled and relax before an included group dinner hosted by the Lusumpuko Women’s Club, a G Adventures-supported initiative.
It’s time for a free day of exploration in Victoria Falls, home to the world’s largest sheet of falling water, and considered one of the Seven Natural Wonders. There are many activities to choose from like white water rafting, bungee jumping, the Bamba tram, or you can prebook the Victoria Falls helicopter ride. Come back together with the group in the evening for the Simunye Theatrical Show for a captivating performance and where dinner will be served.
