The Etosha National Park is one of Southern Africa's finest and most important Game Reserves. Etosha Game park was declared a National Park in 1907 and covers an area of 22 270 square km, it is home to 114 mammal species, 340 bird species, 110 reptile species, 16 amphibian species and, surprisingly, one species of fish. The Etosha Park is one of the first places on any itinerary designed for a holiday in Namibia.  Etosha, meaning "Great White Place", is dominated by a massive clay pan.

The Chobe National Park, which is the second largest national park in Botswana and covers 10,566 square kilometres, has one of the greatest concentrations of game found on the African continent. Its uniqueness in the abundance of wildlife and the true African nature of the region, offers a safari experience of a lifetime.

Situated about 10 km from the city of Livingstone, Zambia, is one of the world' s seven natural wonders and one of the most spectacular natural sites in the world - The Victoria Falls.

The Falls are 1.7 km wide with a volume of 9 million litres per second tearing down at a vertical drop of 100 metres. The spray of the falls can be clearly seen from a distance of 30km and hence it's local name, Mosi-oa-Tunya, "The smoke that thunders".
