Itinerary:
Day 1: Johannesburg
Sawubona – welcome to South Africa! Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting at 6 pm. If you arrive early, we recommend visiting the eye-opening Apartheid Museum to start your journey with some crucial history before meeting up with your group. After your important meeting this evening, why not head out for an optional group dinner and get to know your newfound travel companions? Your leader can point you in the right direction with bar and restaurant recommendations.
Accommodation: 1 x Hotel
Day 2: Kruger National Park
Rise and shine for an early departure from Johannesburg, the ’City of Gold’ and head off on an adventure of a lifetime. Be prepared for a long drive, but rest assured, it is well worth it. A truly unique African experience unfolds as you enter the Greater Kruger National Park ecosystem en-route to our campsite. In the evening, choose to relax at your camp, located in Kruger National Park, or perhaps head out on an optional night drive with the park guide. The optional night drives are a chance to spot nocturnal animals and perhaps even a night-time predator or two – maybe catch a lion or hyena out hunting, or perhaps an impala out in search of a late-night feed. Meals: Breakfast,Dinner
Accommodation: 1 x Camping (with facilities)
Optional Activities:
Day 3: Kruger National Park
After breakfast, embark on a full-day 4WD safari through Kruger National Park.

The day will be spent game viewing, birdwatching and stopping at various waterholes and viewpoints. Later on, take a night drive with the park guide for a chance to spot nocturnal animals and perhaps even a night-time predator or two – catch a lion or hyena out hunting, or an impala out in search of a late-night feed.

Accommodation: 1 x Camping (with facilities)
Day 4: Greater Kruger National Park - Black Mambas HQ
Head to the outskirts of Kruger National Park, where you’ll be lucky enough to camp for the evening with the Black Mambas at their headquarters. The Intrepid Foundation is proudly partnered with Helping Rhinos, which directly supports the work of the Black Mambas - the world’s first all-female anti-poaching unit. Made up of a team of 36 young African women, the Mambas patrol 20,000 hectares of the Balule Nature Reserve, part of Greater Kruger National Park. Turning a traditionally male-dominated industry on its head, they’re putting their female prowess to work protecting the wildlife of Kruger National Park in an unconventional kind of way. You’ll join them on a bush walk to learn how they find and destroy snares firsthand. Enjoy a special dinner by lantern light, and later, relax by the campfire with the Mambas as they share stories about their path to becoming Black Mambas and conservation work.

Accommodation: 1 x Camping (with facilities)
Included Activities:
Day 5: Goo Moremi Gorge
Say farewell to The Black Mambas and head straight for the Botswana border as you travel towards Goo Moremi Gorge. On arrival, perhaps stretch your legs with an optional guided hike through this beautiful national heritage site where perennial streams have carved deep gorges into the hills. Along the hike, you can stop at beautiful waterfalls cascading into deep pools surrounded by lush vegetation. The gorges are home to many birds that feed on fish and small crabs in the pools and are breeding grounds for the endangered Cape vulture. Baboons and rock rabbits live on the cliffs above the gorge and, though very elusive, leopards, hyenas and kudu can also be found here. Meals: Breakfast,Dinner
Accommodation: 1 x Chalet
Optional Activities:
Day 6: Nata
Today, you’ll journey from Palapye to Nata. Your lodge is situated on the edge of the amazing Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, covering some 12,000 square kilometres, this is one of the largest salt flats in the world. On arrival, take a 3-hour excursion in an open vehicle to explore these seemingly endless plains in the Nata Bird Sanctuary. Surrounded by the Kalahari Desert, the pans are naturally dry and salty for a large part of the year. During this time the arid landscape has an eerie feel to it as heat mirages disorientate the senses. Then, after the rains hit, it becomes a grassy refuge for migratory birds and animals. Tonight, enjoy a good nights rest in a comfortable lodge. Meals: Breakfast,Dinner
Accommodation: 1 x Lodge
Day 7: Victoria Falls
Today you’ll travel on to Victoria Falls, crossing the border into Zimbabwe in time to have lunch on the banks of the Zambezi. Continue to your permanent tent, set within a large rest camp. After settling in, you may want to set out on a highly recommended optional trip to visit Victoria Falls. Spanning about a mile wide and falling 108 metres into a narrow gorge below, the spray from the falls can sometimes be seen from kilometres away. In the dry season, the view of the falls is unobstructed by spray and it’s possible to see little islets in the river below. Otherwise, a range of other activities are available through the local activity centre. After visiting the falls or enjoying a relaxing afternoon, meet up with your group for an included brewery tour and beer to say cheers to the journey so far. Meals: Breakfast
Accommodation: 1 x Permanent Tented Overland Camp
Optional Activities:
Day 8: Victoria Falls
You have a free day at the edge of the greatest curtain of falling water in the world. Take up one of many activities in the area today and soak up the opportunity to see Victoria Falls however you like. You might like to try whitewater rafting and canoeing, or for an incredible scenic helicopter flight, choose Zambezi Helicopter Company (CAA Zimbabwe), the only Intrepid-endorsed operator. You’ll have another welcome meeting at 6 pm tonight to meet the new group members joining you. After the welcome meeting, enjoy a traditional dinner prepared for you by a local women’s cooperative who will proudly prepare your meal using fresh, locally grown ingredients and demonstrate the traditional ways Zimbabweans eat their food. Learn how this initiative not only helps provide vital income for the cooperative members but also benefits the broader Victoria Falls community.
Accommodation: 1 x Permanent Tented Overland Camp
Optional Activities:
Day 9: Chobe National Park
Travel to Chobe National Park in Botswana this morning. You’ll stop at the Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust along the way – one of The Intrepid Foundation’s projects. Here, you’ll learn about the rescue and rehabilitation of wildlife, the human-wildlife conflict and the trust’s role in anti-poaching. There may also be a chance to meet any rescued or orphaned wildlife currently in their care. Chobe National Park was the first national park to be established in Botswana and is best known for its high concentration of elephants, which can often be seen swimming in the Chobe River. The river also attracts wallowing hippos, a variety of birdlife and crocodiles that like to sun themselves by the water’s edge. Cheetahs and lions also come down to drink in the river, so if you’re lucky, you might spot one of the predators, too!

This town is the gateway to one of the world’s most famous and most complex ecosystems – the Okavango Delta.

You’ll explore the waterways bymokoros (traditional dugout canoes navigated by friendly local ’polers’).

In this instance we will camp at a backpackers outside the park. 7. Border crossing delays in the region have been sporadic and difficult to predict. What takes an hour one day may take four hours the next. This may affect the order of activities in the itinerary. We understand this uncertainty can be frustrating, and we strongly recommend packing a bit of patience and flexibility.
