South Africa, Namibia & Zimbabwe

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

South Africa, Namibia, and Zimbabwe together form one of Africa's most diverse and rewarding travel corridors, spanning dramatic landscapes from the Cape Winelands and Kruger National Park to Namibia's vast Namib Desert and the thundering Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe-Zambia border. South Africa draws travellers with its world-class wildlife safaris, vibrant cities like Cape Town and Johannesburg, and its complex cultural heritage. Namibia is famed for the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei, Etosha's salt-pan game reserves, and some of the continent's most striking desert scenery. Zimbabwe, anchored by one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, also offers outstanding safari experiences in Hwange National Park and a warm, welcoming local culture.

Southern Africa: Cape Town to Vic Falls (Self-Launched)

A 21-day self-launched version of G Adventures' Cape Town to Victoria Falls: start in Cape Town with Table Mountain, Boulders Beach penguins and the Cape of Good Hope, fly cheaply to Johannesburg for Soweto and a self-drive/short-tour safari in Kruger, then fly to Windhoek and travel by shuttle bus and shared 4x4 through the Namib Desert (Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Twyfelfontein, Etosha) before crossing into Zimbabwe for Victoria Falls. You book hostels and budget lodges yourself, join small-group safari day tours via GetYourGuide/direct operators, and use Intercape/Greyhound-style coaches and Namibia shuttle services instead of a private touring vehicle. Costs are rough backpacker/budget estimates per person, excluding international flights.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for South Africa, Namibia & Zimbabwe yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn a completely impractical skill from a local — fire spinning, competitive coconut opening, whatever — and become weirdly good at it."
