This journey takes you through the Caprivi, a complex network of rivers, flood plains and swamps across the newly completed
Katima Mulilo Bridge which carries the TransCaprivi Highway over the Zambezi River into Livingstone. This historic colonial city is
named for missionary and explorer David Livingstone and is
home to the Mosi-oa-Tunya (Victoria Falls). From here
take the Kazungula Ferry across the 400-metre-wide Zambezi River, into the northern part of Chobe National Park, an ultimate safari experience. Continue through the park, with its abundance of elephant and other game, over the bridge at Ngoma and back into Namibia. |

| From the Editor |
From the wetlands of the Caprivi strip in Namibia, along a newly tarred highway, into the colonial town of Livingstone in Zambia, you will experience unsurpassed beauty!
Why not partake in the challenging high-adrenaline sport of white water rafting, or relax at your camp
where an
elephant might wander through! Onwards across the mighty Zambezi into Botswana's Chobe National Park for incredible game viewing. This spectacular journey, across three countries is not to be missed!
