8-Day Ultra-lux fly-In safari Okavango Delta to Vic Falls

Day 1: Arrival in the Okavango Delta 

Upon arriving in Maun, you'll embark on a scenic charter flight to Vumbura Airstrip, offering a bird’s-eye view of the stunning Okavango Delta. From Vumbura, enjoy an exhilarating helicopter transfer that whisks you to Karangoma Lodge, where you’ll check into a luxurious suite. In the afternoon, take time to relax at the lodge or choose a short sunset game drive to begin your wildlife adventure. The day concludes with a magical welcome dinner beneath the stars, setting the tone for the days ahead.

Day 2: Okavango Delta – Water and Land Safari  

Start your day with a peaceful mokoro safari, gliding through the Delta’s serene waterways in a traditional canoe. Afterward, enjoy a bush breakfast at a scenic location. In the afternoon, venture out on a game drive to explore the rich diversity of the Okavango’s wildlife. As the day ends, unwind with sundowners by the water, followed by a delicious dinner back at the lodge.

Day 3: Full-Day Safari in the Okavango Delta  

Prepare for a full day of exploration as you head out on an extended game drive through the Okavango Delta. A picnic lunch will keep you energized as you search for iconic wildlife such as elephants, lions, leopards, and vibrant bird species. After an exciting day in the wild, return to the lodge for a hearty bush dinner, surrounded by the sounds of nature and the warmth of a campfire.

Day 4: From Karangoma to Camp Hwange  

After a final morning game drive or a guided walking safari, bid farewell to Karangoma as you take a helicopter ride back to Vumbura Airstrip. From there, you’ll catch a flight to Zimbabwe, followed by a road transfer to Camp Hwange. Once you arrive and check into your thatched chalet, enjoy a brief introductory game drive or a leisurely nature walk around the camp. End the day with dinner and stories around the fire, soaking in the atmosphere of the African bush.

Day 5: Game Drives in Hwange National Park 

An early morning game drive offers the chance to witness Hwange’s famed elephant herds and predator activity as the park awakens. After a bush breakfast, relax until the afternoon game drive, where you’ll venture deeper into the park’s remote areas. Sundowners will be served at a scenic spot, and you’ll return to camp for another delightful dinner under the African sky.

Day 6: Bush Walks and Birdwatching  

This day focuses on more intimate encounters with nature, starting with a guided walking safari to observe Hwange’s flora and smaller wildlife species. In the afternoon, embark on a birdwatching session led by expert guides, allowing you to appreciate the park’s impressive avian diversity. Dinner will once again be served under a starlit sky, offering a peaceful end to the day.

Day 7: Final Day at Camp Hwange  

Your last full day in Hwange offers the chance for one more game drive or walking safari in the morning. In the afternoon, you may opt to visit a local wildlife conservation project, gaining insight into efforts to protect the park’s precious ecosystem. A farewell dinner will provide a moment to reflect on your incredible safari experience.

Day 8: Hwange to Victoria Falls  

Depart Camp Hwange with a road transfer to Shumba Airstrip, where you’ll catch a flight to Victoria Falls. Upon arrival, explore the breathtaking falls and enjoy optional activities such as a sunset river cruise or a visit to the local markets.

Keith Chideme is fantastic!
If you’re looking for someone to help you plan the trip of a lifetime, look no further than Keith Chideme. Keith has been nothing short of extraordinary in helping me create a month-long dream trip to South Africa for myself and 11 family members. His patience, kindness, and thoughtfulness throughout the entire process have been remarkable. Keith went above and beyond, engaging in countless conversations to make sure every detail of our six-destination itinerary was just right. He worked tirelessly to balance my budget with my desire for an unforgettable experience, finding deals and creative solutions that I would never have managed on my own. His dedication and expertise gave me complete confidence that this trip will be everything I’ve dreamed of and more. One of my favorite aspects of working with Keith was the personal touch he brought to every interaction. Whether through voice messages, phone calls, or texts, he was always patient, thorough, and thoughtful in explaining every aspect of the itinerary. I never once felt rushed or overlooked—he truly cared about making this trip perfect for us. I can’t imagine planning this trip without Keith. Knowing he has my back has been such a comfort, and I feel completely at ease knowing we are in such capable hands. My entire family is incredibly excited about this incredible adventure, and I know I’ll be contacting Keith for all my future travel plans. He is an absolute gem and a true professional. Thank you, Keith, for everything!

This is the second time this year we have used Shann Shaw at Safari.com. She is outstanding in her role and is always so flexible and helpful. She literally goes beyond expectations and nothing is ever to much for her and there is never any frustrations when plans have to be re-started if flights arriving later than expected. She also comes up with wonderful ideas for trips and not just limited to Safari's but for hotels in South Africa as well. i don't normally write reviews but Shann deserves every accolade that comes her way. thank you so much - Bryan & Jo

Our customer service rep was prompt and polite in responding to our query. She automatically included transportation to and from the safari lodge, which saved us so much time and effort and worry! Other safari companies did not provide this service. From a few questions asked she chose 3 fantastic options for us, exactly what we were looking for. She was also very patient in answering our questions about each lodge and was knowledgeable in her responses. I would highly recommend this company and am excited to go on the safari that she helped us choose!
