The one entry here that isn't a single destination — three real ways to combine countries already covered on this account: Namibia + Botswana self-drive, Uganda + Kilimanjaro + Zanzibar, and South Africa + Victoria Falls. Combining countries adds a layer none of the single-destination pages carry: visa fees and border charges that stack per crossing, and in Namibia and Botswana's case, two neighbours now sitting on opposite sides of the visa question entirely. The East Africa combo carries a harder constraint than cost — it only works in one direction, and getting the order wrong means paying for the same visa bloc twice. Here, the sequence you book in matters as much as what you book.
