Best Southern Africa Safaris

Southern Africa is one of the best and most diverse safari destinations in Africa. This region is home to some of Africa’s best and most famous parks and wildlife habitats, including Kruger (South Africa), Etosha (Namibia), Chobe and the Okavango Delta (Botswana), and Hwange (Zimbabwe), to name a few. On your first safari, you may wish to base your itinerary around these famous destinations.

However, these parks are only a few of the safari destinations in Southern Africa. This is a destination with almost no restrictions on what you can do, from an ultra-exclusive fly-in safari that includes everything, including luxury, to a self-drive safari where you make your own decisions. Botswana is known for its luxury options (though they are available in many other places), whilst self-drive safaris are popular throughout the region.

Where do we go? South Africa is perhaps the best choice for a diverse selection of safari options that can be combined with other, non-safari attractions. For a quieter, self-drive safari, it just has to be Namibia or Botswana (yes, they’ve perfected both this and the high-end safari). Zambia and Zimbabwe may not have the same profile as their neighbors, but they are excellent sites to look for wildlife.

After all, these gorgeous wild species are what a safari is all about, and Southern Africa has some of the world’s remaining major wildlife populations. The ultimate goal of a safari is to see these magnificent animals in their natural habitat, and Kruger is a popular choice.

The safari heartland of Southern Africa consists of five countries: South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Zambia. These countries have a long history of safaris, many national parks, and strong conservation credentials. When you think of a classic Southern African safari, these five are usually at the forefront.

Other Southern African countries have safari opportunities, but on a smaller scale. The question of scale is especially relevant when discussing eSwatini and Lesotho, both of which are small and completely surrounded by South Africa. Malawi is a growing safari destination with a number of outstanding parks. Mozambique, too, has some magnificent parks, but security is an issue in some areas of the country. While these are all worthwhile destinations in their own right, if this is your first safari in Africa, you are unlikely to choose any of them.

Discover exciting wildlife encounters with rich cultural experiences in Etosha - Namibia.

The booking process was easy, and the tour itself was perfect. Some busy days, some relaxing days. Our tour of Uganda was incredible, thanks to our wonderful tour Operator African Vacation Safaris. The booking process was easy, and the tour itself was perfect. Some busy days, some relaxing days, and the right amount of activity and excursions. It was nice to tailor make the package to suit our schedule. The guide knew so much about the animals and about Uganda. It was clear that his goal was to make our experience the very best that it could be. Our time was incredible and we saw so many animals, including the big 5. Top notch service. All of the accommodations were lovely and clean and had delicious meals. The car was comfortable and great for the game drives. Would 100% recommend this tour company.

The booking office was very helpful and we loved the trip. The communication was very easy and fast. We booked a 12 Days Namibia Photography Tour. The booking office was very helpful and we loved the trip. We got a lot for the money we spent. The lodges were amazing, two times we could even see elephants from our rooms. The guide/driver was very friendly. He really knew good places to see animals but still was respecting them. We would definitely recommend African Vacation Safaris.

My guide from African Vacation Safaris was highly professional, engaging, and had a great sense of humor. The 11 Days Classic Namibia Safari saw me to Etosha, Swakopmund & Sossusvlei tour exceeded my every expectation. My guide from African Vacation Safaris was highly professional, engaging, and had a great sense of humor. He made my solo tour not only informative but fun as well. The tour provided the highlights of Namibia within a short time span without feeling rushed. I appreciated the mix of history, nature, and adventure that the itinerary provided. The amount of wildlife seen in Etosha National Park was incredible. I was able to see lions, rhinos, zebras, elephants, a honey badger, and so, so many more. I do recommend wearing layers as it's cold at night in the winter months as well as bringing a power bank/portable battery charger for convenient charging of electronics. I appreciate all the Staff at African Vacation Safaris who made my time in Namibia a once in a lifetime experience!

African Vacation Safaris – A Memorable Journey of Nature and Adventure. After booking a flight, we decided to go to Zimbabwe. I and my sister were a little worried when we found this travel destination of 9 Days Best of Zimbabwe Safari, at first, but because we had prior booked with African Vacation Safaris in 2017 for Uganda and Kenya, we gave it a try. But also compared to well-known safari countries such as Uganda, Kenya and South Africa, Zimbabwe has relatively little information. It turned out that my choice was correct! First of all, if you have any questions, the Staff of African Vacation Safaris would answer them quickly. They were very patient and discussed with me the most suitable solution. The trip has begun!! From the airport pick-up, hotel, restaurant and safari itinerary, every detail is as expected, or even better! Thanks to the person in charge of the travel operator and the tour guide Samuel for their enthusiastic assistance, I had no regrets on this trip! If you are interested in traveling to Southern Africa, I recommend you to choose this travel agency.Good value for money. Great service door to door-pick up and drop off. Informative about Victoria falls history while sharing his top tips throughout the tour. He assisted us in taking pictures/photos and allowed us stop at an ATM to get money for the souvenir stalls. We felt safe and thoroughly enjoyed our safari with African Vacation Safaris agency.
