A Touch of Wilderness - Botswana and Mauritius
A unhurried safari from the Victoria Falls to the Okavango Delta, culminating in the Indian Ocean with the 5 star luxury of Mauritius.
The Victoria Falls are the perfect place to start any adventure in southern Africa. The pace of life is relaxed, the Zambezi glides majestically past, elephant come to drink, hippo laugh and the sun slips into the water. The River Club is a gloriously luxurious lodge set up-river from the Falls.
Then like the Zambezi as it crashes over the falls, the holiday moves up a gear and the action really starts. Fly to the heart of Botswana’s big game country. Here wild dog, lion, leopard and cheetah compete. The day begins early, is exciting and ends around the fire with stories to tell. King’s Pool is a luxurious camp situated in the Linyanti, an unspoilt wilderness to the north of the delta.
Nxabega camp lies a short flight away in the Okavango Delta. From here, you can glide by mokoro (traditional dugout canoe) through the shallow water channels and lily covered lagoons in search of bird life and tranquillity. Hippo and crocodile collect in the deeper waters and game comes down to the water’s edge to drink.
Back down into low gear and head off to Mauritius for a little self-indulgence, warm waters and sun. The Oberoi brings new levels of style to Mauritius: each room is a separate villa (many with a private plunge pool) offering total privacy. The food is excellent, the water sports extensive and the service unbeatable.
