This trip was amazing. We had an experience that we never could have got from staying in a lodge. Yes the nights were cold and a tent is not luxury but I would not have wanted to miss a second of it. If you are open to some adventure and bush camping then I highly recommend this trip.

Although we've traveled independently as well as with a number of other tour companies over the years, this was our first trip with G Adventures/National Geographic Journeys. We loved everything about this tour - the itinerary, group size, accommodations, and of course our excellent tour CEO. This was an amazing trip and we hope to travel with G Adventures again!

Victoria Falls & Okavango Delta: 8 Days - January 2026

Trip customizable

Best price guaranteed

The Okavango Delta is the world’s largest inland delta. It is fed by the Okavango River which originates from the highlands of Angola. While the river would have once reached the ocean, now it's swallowed up by a thirsty basin of white Kalahari sands, creating an effect that resembles an outstretched emerald hand, more correctly referred to as an alluvial fan. Join us on this eight-day, guided tour to discover the Okavango Delta as well as other highlights of Zimbabwe like the Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park and the game reserve of Elephant Sands. Please scroll down to the itinerary section for more details.

G made what could have been a logistical nightmare to face alone, an easy and well-run trip through southern and east Africa. The interactions we were able to have with local communities were unforgettable and knowing exactly how our money is helping these regions goes a long way to justifying paying for a tour. All the CEOs were well organised and friendly and I feel like I learned a lot as well as seeing so many beautiful sights. There are improvements to be made in terms of the pricing of optional activities and the intense itinerary but overall, I had a life-changing trip.

This was an excellent trip very efficiently run. Two nights in every location except the last worked well. The accommodation standard was excellent and all the food was very good, including that prepared by the leaders. The trip was a very good mixture of game driving, hiking, a history day and driving days (I enjoy seeing the countryside and I listen to audio books to help pass the time). The last two and a half hiking days in the Drakensberg were a real highlight. Only one day, the hike in Eswatini, failed to impress as it was on a big track most of the time. Overall, this gives a very good introduction to the east of South Africa with not too much time spent in the truck. Oh, and the truck was very spacious and comfortable, not a minibus as I expected.

It was an amazing experience. Everything from booking to accommodation, tour leaders, included activities was top notch. The safaris were wonderful. It was so nice to have everything organized for us. Can?t say enough about CEO, drivers, and general organization. Was a pricey tour but worth every penny, or Rand!

Excellent. Trip of a life time. Very interesting loved to seeing the animals in their natural habitat but the cultural aspect that were the included aspects but also the additional paid excursions. Many of the expert added guides were very very good adding lots to the trip. I especially liked the guide/researcher to the Namibia in the desert who took us for a tour in the desert describing how the flora and fauna survived without rain etc.so very interesting. I also enjoyed the tour in the Botanical Garden in Cape Town, very interesting but too short. The only caution is that if you take this tour, you need to be aware of the long rides, usually necessary due to the isolation of some sites, and lots of early mornings. Always need to be prepared for lots of tipping on a daily basis. Overall, would highly recommend
