The tour begins on a high note in Victoria Falls, the adventure capital of Africa. Pick your choice of activity: from white water rafting to bungee jumping to micro lighting across the Falls. The route continues through Zambia and Malawi, where you’ll spend a few days enjoying the secrets of South Luangwa and the world-renowned Lake Malawi.
Tanzania is the next destination, and you’ll spend a few days at the must-see Tanzanian coastal capital city of Dar Es Salaam. From here it’s just a ferry ride to the paradise of the exotic Zanzibar 'spice islands', where you can take time to soak up the African sun on pristine white sandy beaches.
After returning to the mainland, it's time for some big game viewing in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater. After crossing the border into Kenya and watching Kilmanjaro vanish into the distance, the tour ends in Kenya’s bustling capital, Nairobi. This safari also runs in reverse direction from Victoria Falls to Nairobi.
Please note that Visas are the responsibility of the traveller and that the Whichway Adventure Company will not be held responsible for clients being denied entry should they not be in the possession of the relevant visas.
