Fly to Johannesburg
Depart London Heathrow on an overnight flight to Johannesburg.
Explore the dense woodlands, grassy plains and vast pristine wilderness of Zambia contrasting with the dramatic splendour of Victoria Falls. Begin the adventure in the South Luangwa National Park in eastern Zambia, a haven for wildlife including giraffe, elephant and buffalo. Enjoy the camp setting within sixty acres of land, unwinding with a sundowner overlooking the Luangwa River. Relax along the Zambezi River near Victoria Falls, a World Heritage Site that leaves a lasting impression, the mist from the Falls visible for miles.

Don your safari boots and head out on foot in the company of a highly trained guide and escort. Connect with nature in a way that just isn’t possible from a vehicle: feel the heat rising off the ground, hear the rustling of creatures in the bush and silently observe the wildlife without any noise distractions.
