South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe
Executive summary by darmansjah
Boutique safari specialist Priscilla Macy cherry-picked this five-country tour from the most raved-about components of her customized African itineraries, like the two nights spent aboard Ichobezi safari boats floating down the Chobe River. What makes the trip different are the philanthropic outings; one group took local children to see Victoria Falls-a first for most of them.
