Then complete your adventure in Zimbabwe with a tour of stunning Victoria Falls.

Day 5 Kruger National Park
Early in the morning hop into the open jeep for a safari in Kruger National Park—home to the famed "big five". Spot elephants, lions, giraffes, and perhaps elusive leopards as you ride through this epic wilderness. We’ll criss-cross savanna, scrubland, and riverbanks on our daylong excursion.

Later, arrive to Johannesburg and get settled in.

Day 8 Cradle of Humankind
Transport yourself to millions of year ago at the Cradle of Humankind, where the fossils of some of our earliest known human ancestors were discovered.

This evening, tuck into a traditional South African braai (barbeque).

Day 9 Johannesburg/Victoria Falls
