Viva Expeditions - Drifters 2027

Embark on an unforgettable journey through Africa’s untamed wilderness, discovering the magic of Livingstone and Botswana. Begin in Livingstone with a visit to the awe-inspiring Victoria Falls, followed by a relaxing sunset cruise on the Zambezi River and an exciting rhino tracking experience. Continue to Kasane for a memorable boat cruise along the wildlife-rich Chobe River, before journeying to the otherworldly Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, where vast open landscapes and star-filled skies await. From here, venture into the heart of the Okavango Delta—one of Africa’s most extraordinary ecosystems—where a labyrinth of crystal-clear channels, lush islands, and abundant wildlife creates a truly immersive safari experience. Explore this pristine wilderness through guided island walks, traditional mokoro excursions gliding silently past wildlife, and open safari game drives offering exceptional sightings across diverse habitats. Conclude your extraordinary adventure in Johannesburg.
