VICTORIA FALLS, ZIMBABWE | “THE SMOKE THAT THUNDERS”

Continue to Chobe National Park in Botswana and settle into your lodge for expansive views across the Chobe River. This afternoon, set out on a river cruise or game drive that includes the opportunity to see elephants — 120,000 live in the park — impalas, buffalo and possibly lions. Return to your lodge, relax and enjoy a freshly prepared meal. Later, drift to sleep beneath the stars, serenaded by the sounds of Africa.

Visit the village of Kasane, to see how the Dipetsana Women’s Bike Shop, a project supported by A&K Philanthropy, benefits the local community.
