This 3-day Victoria Falls and Chobe safari combines one of the world's greatest natural wonders with one of Africa's best wildlife destinations — all in a short, well-paced itinerary.
Stay two nights in Victoria Falls and enjoy a relaxing Zambezi sunset cruise, a guided tour of Victoria Falls, and a full-day Chobe safari in Botswana including both a river cruise and a game drive.
With all transfers arranged — including cross-border logistics — this tour is ideal for travellers who want wildlife, scenery, and ease without the stress of planning.
A journey from Durban to Victoria Falls exchanges the Indian Ocean for the Zambezi while keeping water at the heart of the experience. Subtropical beachfront and warm coastal light give way to basalt gorges, rainforest mist and Chobe's broad wildlife-rich riverfront — all without you managing a complicated two-country plan yourself.
Because Durban journeys often need careful connections, the programme centres on a simple two-night Victoria Falls base. Once you land, transfer, lodge, cruise, Botswana transport and guiding work as one arrangement: a calm Zambezi evening, a full Chobe day, then the Falls on your final morning.
The itinerary suits KwaZulu-Natal couples, families adding wildlife to a beach holiday, honeymooners and solo travellers who prefer coordinated ground logistics. Flights sit outside the land price because connection costs change; we can search routings, align transfers and quote extra nights or upgrades if you want more time.
Depart from King Shaka International Airport and plan around the complete journey to Victoria Falls Airport, including connection time. Routings change, so avoid relying on an old airline schedule.
A morning departure from Durban that reaches Victoria Falls by early afternoon is ideal when available. Let us check the timing before you pay. Flights are excluded from the package but may be arranged and linked to the land services.
Arrive in Victoria Falls and transfer to your lodge. Settle in, relax, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
In the afternoon, cruise along the Zambezi River at sunset with drinks and light snacks. Look out for hippos, crocodiles, and abundant birdlife as the river glows in the evening light.
Overnight at your Victoria Falls lodge.
After an early breakfast, travel to Chobe National Park in Botswana for a full-day safari experience.
Begin with a Chobe River Cruise, famous for close-up wildlife viewing and large elephant herds along the riverbanks. Enjoy a buffet lunch at a riverside lodge before heading out on an afternoon game drive through Chobe National Park.
Expect sightings of elephants, buffalo, plains game, and predators such as lions and leopards.
Return to Victoria Falls in the evening for your second night.
After breakfast, explore Victoria Falls on a guided tour, walking the rainforest paths and visiting the best viewpoints.
You may choose to add an optional helicopter flight for unforgettable aerial views of the Falls and Batoka Gorge.
A transfer and table reservation is provided at Lookout Café for lunch (meal at own cost), before your transfer to the airport for departure.
