This magical multicultural city is the perfect jumping off point to explore Southern Africa, but do make sure you linger a few days to enjoy the buzz of a city where Africa meets a European-style cosmopolitan atmosphere, creating a vibrant melting pot of cultures and religions. With flat-topped Table Mountain soaring above the city, beautiful natural landscapes, and gardens within the city, you never feel far from nature here. Enjoy the waterfront, museums and elegant architecture, then take the time to venture further afield - there is so much within easy reach.
Victoria Falls is one of Africa’s most spectacular natural wonders, known as ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ in the local Lozi language - ‘the smoke that thunders’. The falls straddle the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, at the point where the Zambezi river plunges into a deep gorge.
Botswana’s magnificent Chobe National Park is one of Africa’s most impressive wildlife destinations, home to huge herds of elephants and Cape buffalo, which are drawn to the banks of the Chobe river to drink in the drier winter months.
The town of Kasane, in the far north of Botswana, is the gateway to Chobe National Park. This extraordinary wildlife reserve is best known for its large elephant population, and is also home to species including giraffes, lions, leopards, baboons and hippos.
