Get ready to fill up on Africa: five days and four nights await you, from the city to savanna safaris and the roar of waterfalls. You'll discover Soweto, the iconic township at the heart of Johannesburg and the elephants of Botswana, the nature around the Zambesi river with a sunset cruise and the sheer power of the Victoria Falls.

Day 1 Flight from Durban to Johannesburg Sightseeing tour of Soweto House of Nelson Mandela in Johannesburg: interior visit Overnight stay in an exclusive hotel in Johannesburg

Day 2 Flight from Johannesburg to Livingstone Sightseeing bus tour from Kasane airport to Chobe Chilwero Lodge safari camp 4x4 safari at sunset Overnight stay at Chobe Chilwero in a luxury lodge

Day 3 4x4 safari at dawn and dusk Overnight stay at Chobe Chilwero in a luxury lodge

Day 4 Sightseeing bus tour to the Palm River hotel Sunset cruise along the Zambesi river Typical barbecue on the banks of the Zambesi river Overnight stay in an exclusive hotel in Victoria Falls

Day 5 Sightseeing walking tour of the Victoria Falls Transfer from the airport to Victoria Falls* Flight from Victoria Falls to Cape Town and return to ship

Day 1 – Soweto, the city within the city of Johannesburg You'll arrive in Johannesburg by plane, your jumping off point at the heart what was once know as the “Dark Continent”. A skyline of modern skyscrapers alternating with historical buildings in colonial and Victorian style will greet you. You'll discover the architecture in more detail as you wander through Soweto, the city within a city and symbol of many battles against apartheid: this is where the house-museum of Nelson Mandela can be found * the hero of the fight against racial segregation in South Africa. You'll visit it before heading to your exclusive hotel in the city.

Day 2 – In a luxury safari camp in Botswana Your expedition into Africa continues in Botswana, the land of diamonds. You'll find many precious things here, starting with the Chobe Chilwero, your safari camp in the heart of the wild nature. From your private veranda the views take in the Chobe river and the endless stretch of savanna: did you bring your binoculars? At sunset, you'll leave the comfort of your lodge and go on an adventure of your choice: float down the river on a boat or speed across the Chobe park in a 4x4. Your mission? To find the herd of elephants quietly drinking on the riverbank. After filling your camera with photos and your memory with fond souvenirs, you'll return to your lodge, for a night under the great African sky.

Day 3 * Safari at dawn and sunset A once-in-a-lifetime encounter with Africa's biggest animals calls for patience and dedication: you'll have both in your 4x4 at dawn and dusk, the times of day when the local wildlife is most active! In your free time enjoy all the comforts of the safari camp and recharge your batteries.

Day 4 * River cruise at sunset on the Zambesi river New day, new territory. After breakfast, say goodbye to Botswana and set off for Zimbabwe. You are 4 km from Victoria Falls and, from your exclusive hotel, your gaze stretches out along the Zambezi river. You'll reach it at sunset, to cross it by boat on a cruise that will leave you speechless: while the sun drops behind the trees and the hills, the banks will fill up with elephants, hippos and crocodiles. Before returning to the hotel, immerse yourself in the flavors of the region, with a typical barbecue in a clearing by the river*.

Day 5 – Walk to the Victoria Falls “Mosi-O-Tunya”, "the smoke that thunders”, as the Lozi people refer to the Victoria Falls. You'll find out why on the morning of your last day, as you walk closer to the basalt balcony immersed in mist from which the river plunges 1700 meters into the abyss, with a roar like thunder. It'll keep ringing in your head, even as you take your plane from Victoria to Cape Town, where the ship awaits you.

Dobro je poznato da će vas afrički zalasci sunca, miris rose i zvjezdane noći oko vatre natjerati da čeznete za Afrikom kad se vratite kući, ali zar nije vrijedno toga?

Nakon rituala poslijepodnevnog čaja u kampu, ukrcajte se u svoje potpuno otvoreno 4x4 vozilo i krenite u divlju savanu: lokalni rendžeri pokazat će vam njezine tajne i tragove koje ostavljaju životinje. Možete li pronaći “veliku petorku”? Aperitiv u zalazak sunca, a zatim paljenje svjetala dok otkrivate stanovnike ravnica pod zvjezdanim nebom.* Rezervat Mfulawozi nije samo divlja priroda nego i povijest i kultura: nalazite se u svetim lovištima kralja Shake Zulua, vojnog genija koji je vladao kraljevstvom Zulu u 19. stoljeću. Zamislite: spasio je južnog bijelog nosoroga od izumiranja!

Dan 3 - Safari u zoru* Zaraziti se Afrikom nije samo mit, i sada to znate: u zoru krećete na svoj posljednji safari, ali već će vam nedostajati prostrana afrička neba, a komadić savane putovat će s vama natrag u Port Elizabeth i vratiti se na brod.

Lokalni rendžeri naučit će vas prepoznavati njihove tragove: možete li snimiti fotografiju života jedne od životinja “velike petorke”?* Nakon ručka uživajte u udobnosti safari kampa: bazenu, terasi i tradicionalnom poslijepodnevnom čaju. Zatim, kad padne noć, sjest ćete oko vatre, a kamp će zasjati toplim sjajem baklji.

Day 1 – Soweto, the city within the city of Johannesburg* You'll arrive in Johannesburg by plane, your jumping off point at the heart what was once know as the “Dark Continent”. A skyline of modern skyscrapers alternating with historical buildings in colonial and Victorian style will greet you.* You'll discover the architecture in more detail as you wander through Soweto, the city within a city and symbol of many battles against apartheid: this is where the house-museum of Nelson Mandela can be found - the hero of the fight against racial segregation in South Africa. You'll visit it before heading to your exclusive hotel in the city.

Day 2 – In a luxury safari camp in Botswana* Your expedition into Africa continues in Botswana, the land of diamonds. You'll find many precious things here, starting with the Chobe Chilwero, your safari camp in the heart of the wild nature.* From your private veranda the views take in the Chobe river and the endless stretch of savanna: did you bring your binoculars?* At sunset, you'll leave the comfort of your lodge and go on an adventure of your choice: float down the river on a boat or speed across the Chobe park in a 4x4.

You'll reach it at sunset, to cross it by boat on a cruise that will leave you speechless: while the sun drops behind the trees and the hills, the banks will fill up with elephants, hippos and crocodiles.* Before returning to the hotel, immerse yourself in the flavors of the region, with a typical barbecue in a clearing by the river.

Day 5 – Walk to the Victoria Falls* “Mosi-O-Tunya”, "the smoke that thunders”, as the Lozi people refer to the Victoria Falls. You'll find out why on the morning of your last day, as you walk closer to the basalt balcony immersed in mist from which the river plunges 1700 meters into the abyss, with a roar like thunder.* It'll keep ringing in your head, even as you take your plane from Victoria to Cape Town, where the ship awaits you.

At the Valley of 1000 Hills you can discover modern and olden day African tribal culture in the traditional and spectacular homeland of the Zulu. In this geographically extraordinary part of the world, shaped first by the windings of the great Mgeni River, then by the culture of the Zulu tribes and finally by the arrival of European man, the hills still beat to the Zulu drum. As you journey into the valley you will learn how these tranquil rolling hills belie the blood-soaked drama that unfolded almost two centuries ago when the Zulu King Shaka, known to historians as the 'Black Napoleon', subjugated the tribes which today make up the Kingdom of the Zulu. Your visit to Phezulu gives you the chance to discover at first hand the intricacies, ethnic customs and beliefs of the Zulu peoples. Here Zulu tales and history will be depicted in energetic, costumed song and dance by the renowned Gasa clan, who have been performing unique plays for over 40 years. Dances of courtship and betrothal, of the throwing of the sangoma's (witch doctor) bones, of war and of birth, set to the mesmerizing beat of the Zulu drum, will take you into another world. You will also enter Phezulu's impressive reptile park, where you can learn about the crocodiles and see some of Africa's most renowned snakes that you will remember forever. Then you can sit back and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee with some home-made scones and also take some time to browse through a wealth of ethnic home-crafts on sale in the well-stocked curio shop, ranging from pottery, Zulu fabric art, woodcarvings, beadwork and curiosities. You will be taken back to the quayside in Durban via the national highway.

After lunch you'll enjoy the Ardmore Ceramic Art Studio. The story of Ardmore began in 1985 when Fèe Halsted-Berning lived on the farm Ardmore, in the Champagne Valley under the shadow of the Drakensberg Mountains. Her passion for ceramic art had been honed during her five years at the University of Natal where she studied fine art and then completed a two year advanced diploma in ceramics. Fèe's first student was Bonnie Ntshalintshali, the daughter of a farm employee. Bonnie became known as one of South Africa's leading ceramic artists, while Ardmore's exciting diversity of ceramic art has been endorsed by Christie's, London, as 'modern collectables'. Fèe's merging of western ceramics technology with African art is only part of the story of Ardmore. Fèe has been described as 'a creator of artists'. As she says: "The Zulu people have a wonderful sense of colour and rhythm and a gift for design and balance, all they needed was opportunity'. The flamboyant ceramics have captured the attention of collectors worldwide as a result of the many awards that have been won by the Ardmore artists and particularly as a result of the Christie's exhibition and art auction in London.

• Howick Falls
• Ardmore Ceramic Art Studio

You'll set off from the harbour and drive via Pietermaritzburg to Howick, located in the heart of the Natal Midlands, where you'll see the magnificent Howick Falls, a spectacular, approximately 100 metre high display, almost in the centre of the picturesque town itself.

You'll then have lunch in a local restaurant. 

After lunch you'll visit the Ardmore Ceramic Art Studio and meet the artists, as you view the process of throwing clay, sculpting, painting and finally firing these unique pieces. The studio now consists of over 50 artists who mostly produce the decorative collectable ranges while a few concentrate on fine art. Since 1988 when Ardmore was hit hard by the HIV/AIDS pandemic, Ardmore has pioneered the recognition and treatment of their artists and sculptors. At a time when ARV's were not readily available in South Africa, Ardmore worked tirelessly with experts in the field to educate their staff in AIDS prevention and to provide medication to AIDS sufferers. The Ardmore Excellence fund receives 6% of all sales which is then used to meet medical expenses, counselling, education and training for the employees. Ardmore also believes in making art accessible to children in impoverished communities and holds weekend workshops at local schools every quarter. Budding artists are encouraged to pursue their talents in a fun and uplifting environment. You'll return to your ship in the late afternoon.

The Karkloof Canopy Tour is a unique eco-experience that takes people on a 2-hour adventure through the magnificent Karkloof indigenous forest. The canopy tour involves traversing from one platform to another along a steel cable suspended up to 30metres above the forest floor. The tour comprises seven platforms and eight slides that zig-zag down a pristine forested valley. The scenery and birdlife is spectacular and professional guides provide interesting facts about the forest's ecosystem during the tour. The slides are up to 175metres long and provide unforgettable rides and spectacular views over the forest canopy. The tour begins with a detailed safety briefing followed by a 'kitting up' session where full body harness, pulleys and climbing equipment is put on and safety-checked. A short scenic drive to the top of the Karkloof valley and it is time to monkey around! Construction of the Karkloof Canopy Tour has been carried out in accordance with strict civil engineering standards. A full environment impact study was undertaken to ensure that the forest ecosystem would not be harmed in any way. From the start, on the launch platform, a new world unfolds as one gently glides on a steel cable from platform to platform. You can spend a couple of minutes relaxing on the platforms while your guides enthusiastically explain the forest ecosystem, pointing out different trees and the magnificent giant ferns way below. The bird life is incredible. You may spot Emerald Cuckoos, Knysna Loeries, a wide variety of birds of prey, and if you are lucky, the elusive Narina Trogon or endangered Cape Parrots.
