Rejoice, thank you for you recommendations! However, all my flights and accomodations are booked already. Flying from MQP to LVI, then to CHobe, and then to Vic Falls on Zim Side.
Most of the days are planned. The only thing is missing - it is driving routes and activities on the days when we drive from MQP to Hazyview and on the way from Sabi Sand to Hazyview.

we're just back from 14 days in South Africa! All i can say is OMG, it was amazing!! We used (in my opinion) the best tour company ever, last year went to Galapagos with them! Beautiful accomodations, amazing meals, the people are soo friendly, I dont know where to begin, overall the trip was above and beyond our expectations...they organize everything and the trip was truly flawless. We travel the world and this trip topped them all.. So they run a trip to Botswana and Zambia & Victoria Falls which i think is 11 days, we actually went 2 days earlier to see Johannesburg on our own. I HIGHLY recommend them, they have a Botswana trip for next June, their website is www.wantexpeditions.com and click on Destinations, scroll down to 2012, youll see all the trips they have organized...Botswana is scheduled for June 23. There are other Africa trips, but if you want to see animals, the Delta is where to go (botswana)... We are back now 3 weeks, and we are still on a high... ; ) let me know what you think...and feel free to tell them I referred you! Tell them its maria and anthony! they came highly recommended to me by so many people and im so happy I found them. they're stuck with us forever, lol....also email me directly if you have any questions at all!! so happy to share our trip with you! my email is [email protected] are missing africa so much, its become part of us now...hope to hear from you, Maria M.

Maria, I apreciate your post even my Africa is fully booked at this point... You mentioned this is a good company for Galapagos, and this is where I am thinking to go next. So, may use that for that trip...

And I am glad you loved being in there... Make me even more excited with anticipation.

Helen, please check out Galapagos Travel as well. They specialize in Galapagos. They are especially good if you want to spend more says in the islands. I used them 2x.

Africa & Galapagos are two great nature destinations.
