The 4 Night Victoria Falls and Chobe Safari is an ideal tour for travellers with limited time who want to see Victoria Falls and experience a Chobe safari. The Chobe National Park of northern Botswana and Victoria Falls are quite close to each other, so it just makes good sense to combine these two major Southern African attractions, and this is done by enjoying 3 nights aboard the Chobe Princess Houseboat on the Chobe River. The Chobe Princess is officially located in Namibian territory but to access the boat we take you through Botswana territory (the town of Kasane), and then you enter Namibia by boat via Impalila Island.

Today you board your flight at the OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg for the Victoria Falls Airport in Zimbabwe. On arrival at Victoria Falls, you will be met and transferred to the Victoria Falls River Lodge, where you will spend the next (1) night on a fully inclusive basis in a luxury tent on the banks of the Zambezi River.
Nestled deep within the Zambezi National Park on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, all tented suites have unobstructed views of the Zambezi River, a splash pool on the private deck, and are equipped with all of the amenities that you could need to make this your home away from home.
In the afternoon you will be collected for a sunset cruise on the Zambezi River including drinks (beer and wine) and light snacks.
After breakfast depart on a guided tour of Victoria Falls, before being transferred by road & boat via Botswana to Namibian territory, where you board the Chobe Princess Houseboat for 3 nights on a fully inclusive basis.
Days spent enjoying the many activities offered on the Chobe Princess. This includes boat-based game viewing on the banks of the Chobe, guided fishing, island walking, or a visit to a local Namibian village. The opportunity exists, as an optional extra to take a guided game drive in Chobe National Park.
The Chobe Princess has been recently refurbished to create a fresh new look capturing the beauty of the Chobe River and translating that into all the furnishings aboard the boat. Each room is tastefully decorated with stunning views over the river, there is a splash pool and the top deck has been converted into a viewing platform with unspoilt views of the surrounding landscapes.
This morning after your breakfast you will be transferred by boat to Impalila Island to clear customs before re-entering Botswana. Here you are met and transferred by road directly back to the Victoria Falls Airport, Zimbabwe. Here you will board your outbound flight back to OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, South Africa.
