Overview

A four-nation loop around the Zambezi's "four corners", where Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana and Namibia meet. In five days you see both the Zimbabwean and Zambian sides of Victoria Falls, cruise and game-drive in Botswana's Chobe, and visit Namibia's Impalila Island.

Four nights are spent in carefully selected lodges with daily breakfast, and all the road transfers and border crossings between the countries are handled for you by professional driver-guides — a lot of Africa, logistics-free.
