do you have a list of hotels that you typically use for this tour. I cannot see any place to look at the accommodations.

Once we have you booked and deposited on this tour, we will send you the list of hotels we intend to use. Our hotels are not confirmed until 30 days prior to your scheduled departure.

We like the coverage of your tour but it seems to be too long. I wonder if it will be possible for us to join the tour on day 5 (basically skip the first 4 days in Cape Town). If that is acceptable, I would appreciate a quote.

We appreciate you sharing your travel plans with us and will be happy to answer any questions you may have. You are welcome to join the tour at a later date but please be advised there is no compensation for the missed portion of the vacation. The departure you are inquiring about has been cancelled and the closest available departure is January 4 2026 or March 16 2026.

Can you provide transport to and from airport (at the end and start of the tour) at extra cost for this tour?

Arrival into Cape Town the transfer is $116 per person. Departure from Johannesburg the transfer is not needed as the tour finishes at the airport.

Can we get Private tour option for our group of 10?

I want to make sure you're aware that this trip can cost around $6,500 per person, so I want to confirm that this fits within your expectations.

Can there be add on to this trip. would like to spend 2 or 3 days in chobe

As this is a group tour and the itinerary is pretty full on, there would be no way to add Chobe to the itinerary. Especially due to the distance from Victoria Falls to Chobe. This would be the best tour if you wanted to see Victoria Falls, Cape Town, and a safari in Kruger National Park.

  Traveler•Written January 2026
  We are very interested in this trip starting on June 29. We would love to add Chobe but this trip with that is a day or two too long for us and quite a bit more expensive. Do you have suggestions for us? We want to see Cape Town, Kruger, Johannesburg, Victoria Falls and would love to see another park like Chobe if it works out. We are traveling as a family with two two teens and two young adults. We would rather be in hotels and lodges than camping.
- GlobusOperator•Written February 2026
  Please note that all the tour operators we work with on our platform are reliable. Some are local specialists, and others are larger brands (like Globus) — that's the main difference.
