Join Rowan, the founder of Sensational Africa on this tour to some of the best destinations, safari camps and hotels on the African continent.  We thrive on taking our guests to our favourite places in Africa.  With tours at differing times of the year, each tour showcases Africa in different seasons but still offers incredible highlights along the way.  For us, the luxury is not only in the accomodation, but in the experience itself and my focus on this tour is to ensure our guests receive nothing short of an authentic African wildlife experience.

This Luxury African Safari starts in one of the seven wonders of the world, the mighty Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.  Our first accomodation for 3 nights is Old Drift Lodge.  There is nothing old about Old Drift but it gets its name from its location.  The Lodge is situated on the original crossing site where ox wagons crossed the Zambezi River trying to make their way north into Zambia.  Old Drift is number one on trip advisor for a reason, with large, well appointed luxury tented suites right on the banks of the Zambezi River.  The Guides are fantastic and one is met with the warm hospitality that Zimbabwe is famous for.  One gets absorbed into Africa by the ambience of the Zambezi National Park  behind and the Zambezi River in front.  With a guided tour of the Victoria Falls, lunch at the beautiful Lookout Cafe, game drives, walking safaris and morning and afternoon sunset cruises on the river your heart will already be lost to Africa.  It is also a great time to view the Victoria Falls as there is a considerable amount of water flowing over the Falls.  And, we still have the Okavango Delta to come!

Once we have enjoyed all that Victoria Falls has to offer we venture west to the iconic Okavango Delta in Botswana.  Transfer is via light aircraft to Kasane where we clear immigration, and then we set off for Little Vumbura.  Little Vumbura is true Delta camp and offers a wide variety of activities.  From gliding through the Okavango Delta in a Mekoro (traditional canoe), boating, fishing, game drives and walking safaris we get to explore the region by doing all the exciting activities on offer.  There is also an option of a helicopter flight over the Delta at an extra cost for those that wish.  For those that want to take it slow, relax in your luxury tent overlooking the beautiful scenery of the Delta or relax by the pool and soak up Africa.  Little Vumbura has exceptional birdlife and wildlife and tick all the boxes for an Okavango Delta experience.  With only 5 tented suites this camp is all about personal service one of the main reasons it features in my Accompanied Journey’s selection.

Next stop is Chitabe Lediba.  Chitabe Lediba is in a game rich area of the Okavango Delta.  It is well known for big Game and incredible scenery.  During our 3 night stay we will venture to the Gomoti Plains if water levels permit, a wildlife rich area that borders the Moremi Game Reserve.  Open plains along the river means a rich oasis that game folks to for the green grass and supply of water.  As with Little Vumbura, Chitabe Lediba only has 5 well appointed tented suites so you will be very well looked after.  This camps also features a pool for those that want to take it easy and enjoy some down time before either heading home or off to their next destination which can be Tailormade for you by Sensational Africa.

Our Journey’s are designed to be tailored to your special interests and the time of year you wish to travel.  If you see an itinerary that interests you, get in touch with a travel designer and we will use our in-depth knowledge and experience to design you a holiday to Africa that will go above and beyond your expectations.

TOP TIP – For those who have extra time and wish to add extra days to the tour, chat to Rowan to it make it happen.  We have some incredible add-ons such a Cape Town or Sabi Sand Private Game Reserves to make this well-rounded experience even better!  There is nothing we cannot design.

Thank you Rowan and team for organising our incredible trip to Africa. It was even more amazing than we’d hoped. The people, places and scenery really do have to be seen to be believed. Your knowledge of the local areas in Zimbabwe and Botswana helped to create a unique and tailored family experience!! And yes…that lion was about 2m away from our vehicle!!! 😬

Sensational Africa have done us proud. They recommended and then organised everything from our flights to baggage storage at Maun; an amazing safari experience deep in the Kalahari in Botswana at a Ker and Downey camp (Dinaka). Whilst there it rained and we witnessed the desert flora and fauna coming to life. From flowers that appear for just a few days a year, to migrating birds on a stopover, bullfrogs feasting on nuptial termites, and frolicking baby wildebeest and impala. Our trip was a delight, made even more special by the exceptional hospitality, comfort and safari guiding provided by Dinaka Camp. We thank Sensational Africa for their outstanding organisation taking into account our personal preferences and wishes. Margie and Alan.

After Covid restrictions we were finally able to indulge in an African Safari in Botswana’s Okavango Delta and Kalahari. Highly anticipated, it did not disappoint. 5 different lodges with superb accommodation, friendliest staff and the African bush wildlife at its best. Every day was filled with adventure. Based on Rowan’s personal experience, he planned a trip that was just right for us. We loved it and highly recommend Sensational Africa for any African adventure you are considering. Every step of the way had been arranged and we were in very capable hands at all times. Relax, take it all in and enjoy every minute!
