Zimbabwe & Botswana Safaris and Tours

This trip is truly a Travel Experts favourite. Not only have we had large groups undertake and love our Zimbabwe & Botswana safaris and tours trip, but it is an experience that creates memories that last a lifetime. When you decide to go on safari, you can be left with so many options to choose from it becomes overwhelming. From Luxury lodges and resorts to spectacular, grass roots adventures like this, we aim to take the guesswork out of seeing the big 5 – Africa’s most famous animals. This itinerary is special because it offers you the chance to enjoy Botswana and Zimbabwe safari holidays in the way they originally began. With your luxury tents, outdoor showers, and even star gazing bedrooms, the free roaming animals will be at your doorstep, making you feel part of the wilderness you came to enjoy.

We start with a stopover in Dubai to ensure that by the time you are glamping in Zimbabwe, your body is already adjusted to the new time zone, you have gotten over the flight and you’re ready to sit back and relax on the safari. Relax, shop and ski – Dubai allows you to do whatever you want to do.

Whilst this is a tented safari, it promises luxury with the service you receive. We provide knowledgeable and passionate guides who take you on both game drives and walking the Botswana safaris and tours, and the sensational food and drinks to keep you relaxed and switched off from the outside world. Plus, with a maximum of 12 people at each lodge, this is an intimate affair where no one will be in the way of your perfect photo.

Wondering why we chose 9 nights for this Zimbabwe and Botswana holiday safari, unlike the smaller ones you may be used to seeing? Each of the national parks you will visit offers something completely different. Most people have their favourite animals they wish to see and rather than miss them due to ‘not enough time’, by spreading your time across 3 locations, you have the best possible opportunity to witness Africa’s hidden treasures. By doing it right and taking advantage of being on location, you save money, time and energy.

We can’t wait to see more of our customers canoeing along the Zambezi, sitting by the fire at night, spotting the most amazing animals in the world, and returning home changed forever by the experience. Contact us to check availability for your preferred dates for this Zimbabwe and Botswana holiday adventure.
