Great Safaris debuted its new program Royal Botswana Safari with Victoria Falls on December 1, 2014. The impressive Premier Level itinerary offers 12 days of safari adventures and incredible accommodations in “Old Africa’s Last Refuge” and at the famous “Smoke that Thunders”. Book this tour today through January 31, 2015, and receive two bookings for the price of one.

The special includes the internal Botswana bush plane airfares, from Kasane to the safari camps and on to Maun. In addition, all meals and drinks on safari in Botswana are included. Travelers will also enjoy al fresco dining with views of the Moremi Game Reserve, Internet access and satellite TV in Botswana and daily game viewing activities, including night game drives.

“Rarely in the history of the luxury safari business has so much value been offered for a Botswana inclusive safari,” says Dave Herbert, founder and Chief Experiential Officer at Great Safaris. “We are grateful for the support within the Zimbabwe and Botswana Tourism communities to make this possible.”

Commence the royal journey in the culturally rich city of Johannesburg then wing your way to Victoria Falls, known as the “Smoke that Thunders”. Enjoy a guided tour of the Falls and the surrounding rainforest then relax on a sunset cruise along the mighty Zambezi River.

Continue to Chobe National Park in Botswana, known as “Old Africa’s Last Refuge”. With a small human population and the harsh Kalahari Desert blanketing half the country, Botswana is truly a wild safari destination. This is a never-never land where beasts roam free, so get ready to encounter herds of buffalo, elephant and zebra – favorite prey for hungry lions, cheetah and leopards. Witness survival of the fittest on daily game drives led by professional guides in open safari vehicles. Gain a whole new perspective when the bush comes alive with sights and sounds during nighttime game drives. Head out on early morning and evening game drives in Moremi Wildlife Reserve to see a wide range of creatures, including big cats, antelope, rhino and buffalo. Then fly back to Johannesburg to shake off the bush dust and head home with unforgettable safari memories.
