4-Day Chobe Safari and Victoria Falls Combo from Kasane

Two countries, two ecosystems, one itinerary: Chobe's elephants and Victoria Falls from the air

A 4-day guided tour from Kasane combining Chobe National Park in Botswana with a day trip to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. You spend a full day on game drives and river cruises through Chobe's elephant herds, then cross the border for a guided walking tour of all 16 viewpoints at Victoria Falls, a helicopter flight over the waterfall, and lunch overlooking the Batoka Gorge. Professional guides lead each component. Private transfers, accommodation, and most meals are included.

The experience

The itinerary splits between two safari experiences. Day one is arrival and overnight in Kasane. Day two is the full Chobe day: a morning game cruise along the Chobe River, buffet lunch at Chobe Safari Lodge, then an afternoon game drive in open 4x4 vehicles where elephant herds and Big 5 sightings are the draw. The park is known for its concentration of wildlife along the river and across the plains, and the guide adjusts the route based on seasonal patterns and sightings.

Day three crosses into Zimbabwe for Victoria Falls. The transfer from Kasane takes about 90 minutes including border formalities, passing through Zambezi National Park en route. A professional local guide leads you through all 16 panoramic viewpoints of the falls, explaining the geology, the local name Mosi-oa-Tunya (The Smoke That Thunders), and the rainforest ecosystem. After the walking tour, you board a helicopter for an aerial flight over the entire waterfall, the Zambezi River, and the Batoka Gorge: the vantage that no ground view can match. Lunch follows at The Lookout Café, a restaurant perched on the gorge edge with views of the falls and the bridge. You return to Kasane the same evening.

Day four is checkout and departure transfer to either Kasane or Victoria Falls airport. Accommodation is at Travelodge Hotel in Kasane throughout, with breakfast included daily. Lunch is provided on the Chobe day and the Victoria Falls day. The guide speaks English and is with you for all guided components. Children from age 1 are welcome, and the property is wheelchair accessible.

Is this one for you?This is a shared guided tour with a professional guide leading both the Chobe game drives and the Victoria Falls walking tour, so you follow the itinerary and the guide's expertise rather than setting your own pace. The 4-day length fits both Chobe and Victoria Falls into one trip without rushing either, and the fixed schedule means the helicopter flight and all meals are arranged in advance: useful if you want two major destinations without coordinating multiple bookings or managing logistics between countries.
