    Day 1

    Victoria Falls Airport Pickup and Signature Deck Sunset Cruise

    When you arrive at Victoria Falls International Airport (VFA), you will be picked up and transported to your hotel. Since the time of your flight will determine the pickup time, it is crucial that you give us your travel information in advance. A visit to Victoria Falls is incomplete without a breathtaking sunset cruise, and the 'Signature Deck' of our flagship Zambezi Explorer is the ideal option for this. The top 'Signature Deck' is utterly sophisticated, with deep-set sofas that echo the earthy tones and river blues seen in the surroundings. You will have unobstructed views from the 6 m elevation, excellent canapés, and the services of a specialized mixologist. A selection of our wines, craft beer, and artisanal spirits are also available throughout.

    Accommodation: The Palm River Hotel.

    Main destination
    Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

    Day 2

    Private Guided Tour of the Falls and Night Game Drive

    Day two begins with an 8:30 a.m. pick-up from the hotel lobby for a guided tour of Victoria Falls. A driver/guide will pick you up. The tour takes you through portions of the Victoria Falls rainforest to the cliffs opposing the enormous waterfall. At 4:00 p.m., you will be escorted to a private reserve about 7 miles from town. You will enjoy a late afternoon game drive till dusk. Travel in an open, well-equipped 4X4 vehicle across a shifting scenery of stunning basalt plains to the Kalahari dunes and teak trees of the Nakavango Private Game Reserve. At sunset, you'll stop at a beautiful view point to have some beverages and refreshments, stretch your legs, and talk about the day's activities with other travelers. At nightfall, the spotlight shines, allowing you to view what happens at night in the African wilderness. Wine, chilled beer, and light snacks round out the three-course barbecue dinner.

    Day 4

    Game Drive and Safari Boat Cruise at Chobe National Park

    You'll love early morning wildlife drives in Chobe National Park. Tea and coffee are available before and during the game drive. After the game drive, between 9:30 and 10:00 a.m., you will have a full breakfast. It is the greatest time to see large cats such as lions, leopards, and cheetahs. Late in the afternoon, you will go on a boat safari excursion along the Chobe River, passing through Chobe National Park. The excursion starts at 3 p.m. It is one of the finest experiences to watch the game from a boat since you will be closer to the animals.
