Where we travel to
South Africa
A classical South Africa journey to the Kruger National Park, followed by a scenic drive along the stunning Garden Route to the mother city of Cape Town can be combined with the visit of more remote and less touristic places. Contact Chilombo Safaris for an itinerary off the beaten track.
Namibia
Picturesque landscapes full of spiritual and powerful places in the Namibian desert. Traveling to the endless dunes and pans at the shores of the Atlantic coast offers an adventure for the whole family. A campfire under the stars of the clear desert sky, climbing the sand dunes for sunrise or going on a game drive into the Etosha pan, are only a few of the highlights that make a journey to Namibia unforgettable.
Botswana
A delta that doesn't flow into a sea but trickles away into the Kalahari desert - a natural phenomenon the Okavango delta in Botswana stands for. The delta is full of wildlife and can be explored with a Mokorro, the traditional boat that glides through the channels in the papyrus fields. Botswana's National Parks are still wild and can be explored from Lodges or basic camping spots right in the nature.
