Then travel north to the Chobe region, home to the largest concentration of elephants in Africa. Settle into Chobe Water Villas, where suites overlook the river and wildlife moves freely along the banks.

Over the next several days, experience your first true elephant safari. Glide along the river on private boat safaris. Watch elephant herds cross the water, drink at the shoreline, and interact naturally within their family groups. Meanwhile, game drives reveal hippos, crocodiles, and abundant birdlife.

Sunset cruises bring golden light and memorable views. Indeed, each day offers a deeper connection to elephants and their environment, making this a defining chapter of your elephant safari Africa experience.

Then, continue to Zimbabwe and the legendary Hwange National Park. Your stay at Somalisa Camp places you at the center of one of Africa’s most important elephant habitats.

Hwange is often called the “home of the elephants,” and for good reason. Herds gather regularly at Somalisa’s Elephant Pool, offering extraordinary close-up viewing from the comfort of camp. Indeed, these moments define the magic of a truly immersive elephant safari.

In addition, enjoy expertly guided game drives and walking safaris. Learn about conservation efforts, track wildlife on foot, and observe elephants moving through ancient migration routes. Birdwatching and cultural encounters further enrich your stay.

Afterward, travel to the banks of the Zambezi River and check in to Matetsi Victoria Falls, a private reserve combining wilderness and refined luxury.

Here, your elephant safari continues with private game drives and river cruises. Spot elephants along the water’s edge, as well as lions, buffalo, and elusive leopards. Here, the pace slows, allowing time to reflect and absorb the surroundings.

Finally, a guided visit to Victoria Falls offers a dramatic contrast. Feel the power of one of the world’s greatest natural wonders, then return to Matetsi for a peaceful evening overlooking the river.
