EXCLUSIONS

ITINERARY

DAYS 1-4: Victoria Falls (3 nights bed & breakfast)

You are met on arrival at Victoria Falls airport and transferred to your hotel.

The Victoria Falls is a sight not to be missed – the clouds of spray generated by this thunderous descent have resulted in a lush rain forest full of stunning wild flowers. This is truly one of Africa’s most spectacular sights and the Victoria Falls village in Zimbabwe is the perfect base from which to appreciate it.

The Zambezi River has two characters – the wide gentle river above the Falls is a magic spot for sunset boat cruises or gentle canoeing, whilst below the Falls, the more adventurous can enjoy serious white-water rafting or river-boarding.

A host of activities are centred on three separate delights: the Falls, the magnificent Zambezi River and the surrounding Zambezi National Park. The ‘Flight of Angels’ helicopter flights gives you an amazing overall impression of the Falls. Game drives and horse riding are offered in the Zambezi National Park to view elephant and buffalo. Elephant back safaris are also available for those who want to get up close and personal with these mighty pachyderms. Children are not forgotten and canopy tours cater to all ages. A high tea amidst the colonial splendour of the Victoria Falls Hotel is a daily event and a carnivorous feast at the Boma Restaurant awaits the hungry.

On your last day you will be transferred back to the Victoria Falls Airport.

LOKUTHULA LODGE (bed & breakfast or room only)

Lokuthula (Lock-oo-too-la) means ‘Place of Peace’ in the local siNdebele tongue, and the lodge certainly lives up to this description. Surrounded by beautiful gardens the lodge has easy access to a three-tiered pool, bar and the award winning Boma restaurant. All 37 lodges offer stylish comfort, flexibility and privacy. They are split-level, furnished in a riot of African colours, fully equipped and serviced daily. All lodges have fans, mosquito nets and a range of customised toiletries including insect repellent and sunscreen lotion. 29 of the lodges are fully self-catering, and the other eight are bed and breakfast.

VICTORIA FALLS SAFARI LODGE (bed & breakfast)

Victoria Falls Safari Lodge is a stylish yet relaxing bush lodge in a stunning setting on the edge of the Zambezi National Park, just 4km from the thundering Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe side. This newly restyled lodge is a testament to eco-friendly design and prides itself on exceptional dining, the candlelit boma being a particular treat. It has its own waterhole and faces the setting sun so that you can enjoy game viewing without even leaving the lodge. Watch the breathtaking African sunset and view the animals coming to drink from your private balcony, the pool deck, the bar or the restaurant. The lodge’s rooms have wooden concertina shutters and glass doors which unfold onto the private balcony overlooking the National Park. Each has a full bathroom with bath and shower, telephone, air-conditioning, ceiling fan, safe and mosquito nets.

VICTORIA FALLS RIVER LODGE (Full board meals and drinks)

Set on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River in Zimbabwe, the Victoria Falls River Lodge is a pioneer in many ways. As the first privately owned lodge to be situated in the Zambezi National Park, it is the ideal place from which to explore Victoria Falls as it combines the African safari experience with one of the natural wonders of the world – the spray of which can be seen in the distance. The combination of exceptional wildlife viewing, fine dining, personal service and luxurious accommodation ensures an unforgettable experience. Sumptuous safari tents nestle snugly among the river bank’s verdant trees, each boasting breathtaking views of the Zambezi River from extensive private decks. Each tent has been tastefully decorated in earthy hues, the only thing that resembles a tent in these 5-star rooms is the canvas on the outside.
