More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The day begins before dawn as the transfer pulls away from Victoria Falls and the road hums toward the Botswana border. Dust lifts off the potholes, and the Chobe River appears on the horizon like a moving mirror; elephants already line its banks, trunks curled and deliberate. Guides scan the canopy, voices low and precise, steering the vehicle toward herds and loners alike.
