Also available in D-F-ES on request. What makes this safari unique is our small-group approach, with only 4 to 10 guests ensuring space, comfort, and personal guiding. On late drives, the game viewer turns into a star viewer when the guide unzips the canvas roof, revealing the African night sky above you. Tours are guided in English, with German, French, and Spanish available at a supplement. Explore the vast, genuine wilderness of Zambezi National Park or Chamabondo. We depart before all other safari companies in Victoria Falls, giving our guests the rare chance to enter the park first, when wildlife is most active and the bush is still quiet. This early access increases the opportunity for animal sightings. You will search for elephants, buffalo, giraffes, hippos, antelope, and—if luck is on your side—lions and other predators moving freely through this unfenced, truly wild landscape. This is not a zoo or a staged attraction, but real Africa as it is meant to be experienced.
