Many of our international group tours end in the small town of Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe… but how do you get back home from there?
You basically have two options:
Option 1: You could join this 2 day transfer from Victoria Falls to Johannesburg by overland truck. It’s cheaper than flying and you get to see a little bit of Botswana… and if you are lucky – some wild animals!
Option 2: Some clients fly back home from Victoria Falls via Johannesburg in South Africa.
This tour is offered in two styles:
1. Camping: Clients mostly overnight in comfortable two-man dome tents, with built in mosquito nets and of course a mattress.
2. Accommodated (hotels/ lodges): Clients overnight in a comfortable twin room or a permanent safari tent, mostly with en-suite facilities.
