Victoria Falls Plus Botswana African Safari

Victoria Falls Combined With An Botswana Africa Safari

We are often asked about which safari lodges & nations are the best to combine with an extended stay at the Victoria Falls. The answer is simply whichever takes your fancy with literally several hundred options on offer for intrepid safari travelers to Africa. We have though assembled a compilation of superb safari lodge options to assist in narrowing down what can otherwise be a somewhat daunting task of deciding which of the various lodge options to go with.

Botswana is arguably the most loved of all African safari nation states. Combing a trip to Vic Falls with a week at one of the Okavango Delta‘s myriad elite safari lodges allows you to experience two of the continent’s natural wonders in one vacation. Jao Camp is a name that springs to mind for those wishing to experience the Okavango Delta in luxury that is of an intimate nature. Another similarly intimate & high end option is Duba Plains.

Our #1 pick though in Botswana would be Jack’s Camp as it offers just that perfect mix of African wildlife, excellent service & high end amenities.
