Southern Africa Overland: Canoes & Camp-Outs - October 2026

My experience was unforgettable and I made memories that I will cherish for a lifetime. To step away from my part of the world and immerse myself in the African bush, cooking dinner, sitting around the fire, camping, sharing stories, and observing the wildlife was recharging, healing, and most of all- transformative. I truly enjoyed my time in Africa and am already looking forward to when I can go back.

The Southern Africa Safari trip was incredible! was an amazing tour guide with so much knowledge about South Africa and its surrounding countries. was also a great TM in Namibia. I had the time of my life on this trip and I wish I could do it all over again! It has got me so excited to go back to Africa and do more exploring of these beautiful countries.

I really enjoyed the trip and the way camping was mixed into the other accommodations. However, it would have been nice to have some more options for Cape Town add-ons, even if we couldn’t do all of them. I.e see Nelson Mandela’s prison. I also think the township tour should be an inclusion. The walking safari in Zambia was a bit too expensive though, considering we only did like 30-40min of walking. was fantastic in the way he welcomed us to his home country and spoke about life in Africa.

This was a once in a lifetime trip and I highly recommend taking it! The logistics it takes to move through 4 countries in 11 days is a lot, and it was extremely smooth with contiki. The trip manager was top notch, he was knowledgeable, informative, caring and respectful. The add ons add up, make sure you are prepared for that, but every add on I did was absolutely worth it and I would recommend taking advantage of all the add ons you can. One thing to call out is in Kruger you truly camp in tents (I would not define this as “glamping”) it cooled down enough for us to be semi-comfortable but be prepped to rough it for two nights. Even with the camping, Kruger and the guided safari drives was the highlight of the trip. If you can, take this trip!! You won’t regret it.

This trip was incredible! The activities available ranged from climbing red sand dunes and star gazing in the desert, to getting up close to giraffes, zebras, and lions on safari and kayaking with seals jumping up onto the boat. Our guide Often did an amazing job of showing us the highlights of Namibia. Long stretches on the road but the view of the beautiful and changing landscape along the way made it all so worth it! Would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to explore the path less travelled and immerse themselves into Namibian culture.
