Day 1
Victoria Falls
Arrive at any time.
Tonight after a brief welcome meeting at the hotel, choose to experience Victoria Falls with the group and attend an optional group dinner at a local spot. Victoria Falls is great base to kick-off this African adventure, to see both some natural wonders, and take part in some exciting optional activities. Get up close (and wet from the spray) while awing at the immense Victoria Falls, raft the whitewater of the mighty Zambezi, and, for the more adventurous, bungee jump with the Victoria Falls in view. - Day 2 Victoria Falls - Lusaka Rise early and get on the road around 6am to cross the border from Zimbabwe into Zambia. Towards the end of the day, the group will arrive at a private farm about 29km (18 mi) outside of Zambia’s capital and enjoy free time to relax and marvel at the wildlife on the property.
- Day 3 Lusaka - Mfuwe While today’s travel day might be long, there will be plenty of time to socialize on the Lando as the group is driven across the Zambian countryside to the campsite along the banks of the Luangwa River. There will be free time to enjoy your surroundings upon arrival.

Iringa - Baobab Valley
Continue northeast in the Lando to the group campsite in the Baobab Valley along the banks of the Ruaha River.

Then search the sky for shooting stars and make some wishes before drifting off to sleep. - Day 11 Baobab Valley - Dar es Salaam Wake in Baobab Valley before driving to Dar es Salaam.
