Starting in Tanzania, you have the opportunity to get up close to the amazing wildlife in the Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater, home to Wildebeest, Zebra, Gazelle, Giraffes, Elephants, Rhino and big cats - the opportunity to spot wildlife on offer is second to none. As well as the safaris, we will visit Masai villages, and stay in a local village at the foot of Mt. Kilimanjaro, before we head to the coast. We'll take a short ferry crossing to the exotic island of Zanzibar, and enjoy a tour of Stone Town and a spice farm, as well has having several days to relax on the beautiful white sandy beaches at the north of the island. Here there are also many water sports options, including snorkelling, scuba diving, jet skis and kite surfing.
From Zanzibar you take a flight to Lusaka or Victoria Falls to re-join the truck (flight not included). After seeing the falls we visit Chobe National Park in Botswana, and the pan handle of the Okavango Delta in Namibia's Caprivi Strip. Continuing through Namibia we go on safari in Etosha National Park, famous for its desert elephants, before continuing south to Ozohere Himba Village and Cape Cross Seal Colony. After passing shipwrecks sitting on the desert sands of the Skeleton Coast, we’ll visit Swakopmund, known as the adventure capital of Namibia where thrilling activities, such as skydiving, sandboarding and scenic flights above the stark landscape of the mountainous dunes are available. Coming towards the end of our trip, our next highlight is Namib-Naukluft National Park and Sossusvlei where we'll climb up the famous Dune 45 in the Namib Desert and see the ancient scorched black trees in the Deadvlei clay-pan. Finally we travel to Windhoek, Namibia’s capital and journey’s end.
