Tour Spotlight: 41-day Cape Town to Kenya (25CTK41/A) 🐘🌍

This is the ultimate overland expedition: a 41-day journey through Southern and East Africa that takes you from the iconic coastlines of Cape Town to the rolling grasslands of Kenya. Along the way, explore the towering dunes of Namibia, the Okavango Delta’s waterways, the roar of Victoria Falls, the shores of Lake Malawi, and the legendary wildlife parks of Tanzania.

Expect game drives in Etosha, Chobe, South Luangwa, Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater, lazy days on Zanzibar’s beaches, and cultural encounters that will stay with you forever. It’s a full-circle African experience, blending adventure, wildlife, community, and scenery in one unforgettable trip.

Acacia FAQ #7: What’s a Typical Day on Tour Like? 🌄🛻

No two days are the same, and that’s half the fun.
You’ll wake up to birdsong and coffee, then head out for game drives, cultural visits, or scenic road trips. Lunch might be served in the shade of a baobab, and evenings bring dinners around the campfire, plenty of laughs, and stories shared under the stars.

✔️ Some days start early, others are more relaxed
✔️ There’s always time to explore or unwind with optional activities
✔️ Travel days are part of the experience, with the truck offering front-row views of Africa

This is overland travel at its best. Unplugged, immersive, and packed with unforgettable moments.

Travelling in our overland truck means front-row seats to moments like this — roadside elephant sightings as we cross from Botswana into Namibia. This stretch of the journey winds through the heart of the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area, where wildlife roams freely beside the road, part of a vital migration corridor that links Chobe National Park to Namibia’s Zambezi Region.

Delta days. Chobe nights. Unfiltered Africa at its finest. Our 8-day Okavango Delta & Chobe Express may be short but it’s packed with all the iconic experiences Southern Africa is known for.

Feel the spray of the Victoria Falls. Cruise alongside elephants on the Chobe River. Glide silently through the Okavango Delta in a mokoro. Swap stories by the campfire and wake up to birdsong in the bush. It’s 8-days you won’t forget.

Q: Are there any vaccinations I need before travelling through Africa?
A: It is dependent on your route but always check with your doctor for country-specific advice.

Here’s a general guideline:
- Yellow Fever: Required for some countries (especially East Africa). Carry your certificate!
- Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus, Polio, Diphtheria: Commonly recommended
- Malaria: Not a vaccine, but we do recommend anti-malarials on most of our routes

They know every border crossing, every pothole, and the best spot for a roadside snack… or to go “bushy bushy” 😉

They’ll fix a flat before you even know it happened, spot a lion from faraway, and somehow still remember everyone’s name, dietary needs, and birthday by week two. You’ll come for the destinations — but trust us, it’s the people who’ll stick with you long after the dust settles.

Game faces on! When you're on the truck and the stakes are high… (okay, maybe just bragging rights). From Serengeti to Swakopmund, card games are the unofficial sport of every Acacia tour.

Spend a morning at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (SWT) Nursery, a world-renowned for rescuing and rehabilitating orphaned baby elephants and rhinos. This might be an optional add-on activity but if you are on tour with us in Kenya, we doubt you will want to miss this one…

You will watch the Nursery herd shuffle in for their midday milk feed, kick up some dust, splash in the mud and if you are lucky, greet you with a curious trunk bump.

✨ This visit isn’t just adorable, it’s powerful. Every ticket directly supports the rescue, rehabilitation, and eventual reintegration of these incredible animals.
