On this African overland tour, we depart Johannesburg and make our way north where we cross into Botswana. We drive along the edge of the Kalahari Desert and the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans before we board a Makoro for a trip into the Okavango Delta. Chobe National Park is our last stop in Botswana. Crossing into Zambia, we stop in Livingstone where you can view the mighty Victoria Falls. We make our way north to Lake Kariba, where we board a houseboat for some relaxation time. The Great North Road takes us to Kapishya Hot Springs before continuing into Tanzania. We drive through Baobab Valley and Mikumi National Park, before we arrive at the coastal capital of Dar es Salaam where we board the ferry for Zanzibar. The famous Serengeti National Park and Ngorongoro Crater follow before we cross into Kenya. We stop at Nakuru National Park on our way through to the highlands for our encounter with the Mountain Gorillas. Back in Kenya, we stop at Lake Naivasha before spending a couple of nights in the Masai Mara Game Reserve. Crossing the Rift Valley, we end this tour back in Nairobi.
