Trip of a lifetime animal experience   Journeys: Southern Africa Safari Experience , New Zealand, Aug 2026
An 18 day National Geographic tour of Africa included safari drives in 5 different reserves over 3 countries, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana. We were thrilled to see the big five game animals but seeing all the animals in their natural environment was just amazing. Highlights were the elephant herds in Botswana and the multiple sightings of the read more big cats, lions and leopard. The smaller and more remote parks were best as there were fewer tourists and safari vehicles. Our guides were excellent and we learnt a lot about the environment and wildlife as well as the culture of the people living there in close proximity to nature.
