Victoria Falls
Children are welcome.
A babysitting service is available.
All rooms are spacious and bright, with sliding glass doors opening onto private balconies with uninterrupted views of the bush at sunset. Most rooms also overlook a central waterhole, offering the chance to watch herds coming to drink.
Rooms are equipped with king-size beds with mosquito nets, a safe, telephone, private balcony, air conditioning and ceiling fan, hairdryer, personalised toiletries, a mini-bar, as well as tea and coffee.
Victoria Falls Safari Lodge overlooks a waterhole, allowing visitors to see a variety of wildlife.
The Vulture Culture Experience is a supplementary feeding programme that helps ensure the survival of these remarkable but endangered birds, while allowing visitors to enjoy the spectacular sight of hundreds of birds feeding on meat scraps from the on-site restaurants.
You will also have the opportunity to observe large herds of elephants.
September to December is a less favourable period for viewing the falls due to the low flow of the Zambezi. The falls are then less spectacular than during high-water season.
Conversely, from March to May, the flow is so strong that the falls are hard to make out at all — the spray thrown up is so heavy it feels like rain, and only a few viewpoints allow you to see them properly. Raincoats can be rented or bought at the park entrance.
