This mouthwatering tour takes us to three of the finest national parks in Africa, home to an incredible diversity of wildlife and birds.
We visit Chobe National Park in Botswana and Hwange and Matobos National Parks in Zimbabwe.
Undoubtedly our flagship Zimbabwean tour, taking in several iconic destinations in the spectacularly beautiful eastern Highlands.
Although there are no endemic birds in Zimbabwe, the country boasts more than 50 species that do not occur in South Africa.
Many of these “specials” can be found in the focus area of our trip as we have carefully selected those destinations that will afford us the best chance of seeing the targeted species.
Our travels take us to two of Zimbabwe’s lesser-known natural jewels, situated northeast of the capital city.
Mavuradonha Wilderness is one of Zimbabwe’s true wildernesses – seldom visited, even by the locals.
Umfurudzi Park has rich biodiversity and supports a large spectrum of wildlife, including several special bird species.
The Namib Desert has a fascinating array of plant, animal and bird species, surviving in sand dunes of all shapes and sizes and vast gravel plains stretching for as far as the eye can see.The central Namib, an area confined by the Atlantic Ocean in the west and the escarpment to the east, sandwiched between the Kuiseb River in the south and Huab River in the north, is the area that we will be visiting.
This superb tour combines the sparsely populated semi-desert of Bushmanland with its exciting and highly desirable South African endemic birds with the stark beauty of the vast mountain desert known as the Richtersveld. It also provides a juicy taste of the floral splendour of springtime Namaqualand and the rugged beauty and mystique of the Diamond Coast.
This adventure takes us to several exciting destinations and is much, much more than a pure birding trip. We visit three iconic Eastern Cape destinations ie The Baviaanskloof, Addo Elephant National Park and Hogsback.
