Benefiting from its location in the Zambezi National Park and right on the banks of the river, guests have the opportunity to pick and choose between game drives and river safaris. Night drives and walking safaris are also offered at an additional cost. There are a range of activities on offer for children including grass weaving, bead-making and fishing.

​

Sightings in the National Park improve year on year. While great elephant sightings are guaranteed, the river is home to a healthy population of hippo and crocodile. On land, kudu, buffalo, giraffe amongst others are regular sightings. If you are lucky you may spot lion moving through the area, one of the resident, but elusive leopard, or even, with increasing frequency, a marauding pack of wild dog.

​

Being so close to Victoria Falls Town, guests can enjoy all of the activities on offer there such as bungee jumping, white water rafting, helicopter trips over the falls and visiting the local crafts market.

When to go

​

There are two very distinct seasons at the Victoria Falls, the wet/flood season and the dry season. These seasons do not reflect the quantity of rain, rather reflect the volume of flow of the Zambezi River. From around March through to July the river surges in size as the rainfall in Angola and Zambia from months before swells the current. The falls are at their most dramatic at this time of year with huge columns of spray. The nights are cold and the days warm at this time of year. From around September to January the water levels drop, the falls are more accessible and views are clearer as the flow can drop in volume by 90%. It is worth noting that the rains come from late October through to February, this combined with high heat, 40 celcius or more, in October and November, causes high levels of humidity.
