Southern Africa 2002

Home | Trip Summary

15 April - 19 May

I flew to Cape Town and spent four very enjoyable days here before boarding an overland truck for a three week trip to Victoria Falls.

We passed through Namibia, Botswana and Zambia stopping off at places like Fish River Canyon, the red dunes of the Namib desert at Sossusvlei, Etosha national park, Chobe national park and Victoria Falls itself on the Zambia side.

There were plenty of activities to chose from in Victoria Falls. I went skydiving and quadbiking in Namibia. We also did a sunset game cruise on the Chobe river and went white water rafting on the Zambezi.

I split up with my group and headed into Zimbabwe where I got a different and better view of the falls, before heading down to the Antelope Park in Gweru, an amazing place where I got to walk with lions and feed the baby cubs.

I flew out of Harare back to London on 19 May.
