Insider's View

If you travel in April, you'll enjoy seeing the annual zebra migration in the Makgadikgadi pans, the second largest migration in Africa.

It's possible to transfer between your safari camps by helicopter instead of light aircraft - we highly recommend it for a totally different experience!

We design each itinerary around you, so this suggested itinerary is a starting point that we can tweak or transform into something completely bespoke to you. Call us on 65 3165 4050 to start planning your holiday.

Itinerary

This thrill seekers safari through Botswana is perfect for families with teenagers. With activities galore, the whole family will get out and about on an active exploration of some of the most incredible and scenic areas that Botswana has to offer. Watch wildlife from a game vehicle or on foot and gallop on horseback through the beautifully eerie Makgadikgadi Pans before rounding off your adventure at the mighty Victoria Falls for a grand finale.

  1. Fly to Maun

  2. Days 1-4: Makgadikgadi Pans

    Your family adventure begins as you are flown by light aircraft from Maun into the vast moonscape of the Makgadikgadi Pans. Here you will enjoy a wealth of exciting activities which the whole family will enjoy. Spend the next three days exploring the wonders of the salt pans by quad bike or even by horse-back on a two-hour excursion. The landscape here couldn't be more different to the earlier parts of your safari, and the wildlife is too. Spend time with a meerkat colony (who may climb on your head to use you as a vantage point), ride to the vast upside-down-shaped Chapman's baobab tree, visited by early explorers including Livingstone, and learn about the hunter gatherer Zu'hoasi people, a relation of the San bushmen. End each evening under a canopy of sparkling stars across the clear night sky.

    Accommodation: Camp Kalahari (3 nights)

  3. Days 4-7: Shinde Concession

    Your next stop in Botswana takes you north in a light aircraft to the Shinde Private Concession in the Selinda Concession in the north of the Okavango Delta where you will spend the next 3 nights at Footsteps camp on the Young Explorers safari.

    With exclusive-use of the camp, day-by-day and activities are tailor-made around you. Specially designed to keep the kids entertained, activities allow the whole family to get out and explore the wilderness on a flexible schedule with guides who are highly experienced in working with children. Activities vary from exploring on foot to find animal tracks and spoor, to heading out in a vehicle to find some big game.

    Accommodation: Footsteps (3 nights)

  4. Days 7-10: Victoria Falls - the Zim side

    Your journey concludes in Zimbabwe at the spectacular Victoria Falls. Stay outside of Victoria Falls town for a tranquil stay along the banks of the Zambezi river. Here you are close enough to head into the Falls to experience the true force of the water, as well as being in a slightly more peaceful area to enjoy lazy afternoons if you wish. During your three nights stay we also recommend you head out on a game vehicle for a safari in Zambezi National Park where you could find elephants eating in the bush and lions stretching out for an afternoon sleep. If you haven’t had your fill of water-based activities, you can get back out on the water on a boat cruise or in a canoe to see game from a completely different angle. We think this is the perfect way to round off an action-packed safari holiday.

    Accommodation: Victoria Falls River Lodge (3 nights)

  5. Fly home from Victoria Falls
