Striking a balance between edge-of-your-seat action and sheer relaxation is part art, part science, and one hundred percent our forte. Enter 8 day romantic Livingstone, Chobe and Delta: Adventure on the outside, sumptuous surrounds and spa treatments on the inside, and some of the best all-round birding and wildlife in between.
You’ll start at the edge of one of the world’s official natural wonders, Victoria Falls, where “moonbows” (rainbows by light of the full moon) glitter in its mists and 33,000 cubic feet of water per second hurtle over its mile-wide basalt ledge. Dramatic much?
And then it’s on to the world’s largest inland delta, dotted with intimate camps, picture-perfect scenery, and some of the most spectacular game viewing on the planet. (With an elephant-filled pitstop on the banks of the Chobe River.) The 8 day romantic Livingstone, Chobe and Delta safari is a wondrous watery affair.
On a tiny island 30km upstream from one of the world’s seven natural wonders, another wonder awaits: Royal Chundu. Hidden from sight in the middle of the Zambezi, just four enormous suites hang over the rapids that surround this exclusive...

The Chobe River is an important tributary of the mighty Zambezi river. It lends its name to the famous Chobe National Park as well as to this lodge. Perched on a hill overlooking the mighty river, Sanctuary Chobe Chilwero is...
EXPLORE There’s no denying the appeal of comfort and Chief’s Camp really does give you one of Botswana’s softest landings. Collapse into the air-conditioned rooms, soak up a signature spa experience and lose yourself in this perfect little island oasis in...
EXPLORE You’ll start where many great safari adventures tend to begin: Vic Falls. From your sprawling riverside suite at Royal Chundu Island lodge, you’ll have two full days and three incredibly comfy nights to explore every angle of the Falls. From a rainforest tour to unbeatable helicopter views, Victoria really doesn’t have a bad side. You’ll drink in the Zambezi’s dramatic sunsets, and nod off to the sound of snuffling hippos on its banks.
With the flash of a passport, you’re off to Botswana for two elephant-filled days at Chobe Chilwero. It’s just a short drive to Chobe over the new Kazungukla bridge (where four countries meet). Here, game-viewing and gastronomy are the order of the day. If elephants are on your must-see list, very little beats this place in the dry season. You’ll watch endless breeding herds take riverside dust baths, before indulging in your own spa experience with a treatment menu as long as a proverbial elephant’s trunk.
Your tour of Botswana’s best culminates on a vast, game-rich island in the middle of the Okavango Delta at the award-winning Chief’s Camp. Considered to have some of the best game viewing on earth, there’s very little you won’t see in these parts. You’ll track rhino through the mopane, watch lion and wild dog take-downs on the floodplains, and keep a lookout for leopard kills in the forks of trees. To say nothing of all the signature pampering you’ll soak up back in camp. We think it’s heaven.
Unfortunately, safaris don't last forever. Soak up your last morning in the Delta with a last morning game drive, or a slow morning at camp before heading to the airstrip to hop on a flight back to Maun.

All Accommodation All Activities as per Itinerary All Airport Transfers All Meals & Selected Drinks All Scheduled Flights Conservation Fees Wifi in Camp Where Available This journey sweeps you through three of Southern Africa’s most spectacular and romantic locations: Livingstone on the Zambian side of Victoria Falls, the elephant-rich Chobe National Park in Botswana, and the magical Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It’s the perfect mix of jaw-dropping high drama and the slow, indulgent and intimate moments of remote wilderness. From the cinematic Victoria Falls and intimate boat rides on the Zambezi, to incredible game viewing, spa treatments and candlelit dinners in the Okavango Delta. Every stop is designed with romance in mind. The small, luxurious camps give you privacy and exclusivity, while the activities are flexible so that you can enjoy both adventure and downtime together.
Think sunset cruises on the Zambezi, private dinners under the stars, spa treatments for two, and tranquil mokoro rides through Delta waterways. Lodges often add little surprises too — a bottle of champagne on arrival, bubble baths with a view, or your own secluded sundowner spot in the bush.
Yes! All transfers, including scenic light aircraft flights between Livingstone, Chobe, and the Okavango Delta, are included and seamlessly arranged, so you can focus on enjoying the experience rather than the logistics.
Each stop features intimate, high-end camps with private suites or villas, often with plunge pools, outdoor showers, and panoramic views. These properties are chosen for their romantic settings, exceptional service, and ability to make you feel like you have the wilderness all to yourselves.
The Delta is one of Africa’s greatest safari regions. You can expect loads of elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, red lechwe, and hundreds of bird species. Game drives, boat trips, and mokoro excursions offer different perspectives on this remarkable ecosystem.
For peak wildlife viewing, May to October is ideal — it’s winter and the dry season, so animals concentrate around rivers and waterholes. For a greener, more lush experience with spectacular birding and fewer visitors, the summer season is from November to April.
Absolutely. We can extend your stay in the Delta, add time in Cape Town, include the Makgadikgadi Pans, or create a private beach finale on Mozambique’s islands — It’s up to you!
