The Golden Safari Triangle has been crafted with connection at its core. This 10-day itinerary celebrates the essence of Africa: its people, its landscapes and its untamed wildlife. Embracing the diversity of safari, guests can experience the wilderness by foot, hot-air balloon or the classic game-viewing vehicle, while exploring smaller areas. A combination of our three properties in Zimbabwe & Botswana satisfies cultural, experiential and conservation-based encounters.
