Day 1: Victoria Falls Safari Lodge, Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe (Thu, 2 July)
You will be met on arrival at Victoria Falls International Airport by Adventure Zone and transferred to your hotel.
Resting on the southern banks of the Zambezi River at the western end of the eponymous falls, this popular tourist town is compact enough to walk around and makes an ideal base for travellers exploring the seventh wonder of the world, the unfathomably vast Victoria Falls. About two-thirds of the falls can be viewed from the Zimbabwean side and, while the falls are undoubtedly the star attraction, the area provides both adventure seekers and sightseers with plenty of opportunities to warrant a longer stay. Popular activities include scenic flights over the falls in helicopters or microlights, bungee jumping off the Victoria Falls Bridge, white-water rafting (seasonal), and day trips to Chobe National Park.

Built on a plateau overlooking the Zambezi National Park, Victoria Falls Safari Lodge is just 4km from the majestic Victoria Falls and offers a unique wildlife experience. The lodge has been voted Best Safari Lodge/ Resort Hotel in Zimbabwe for 21 consecutive years. Built of thatch and timber, the lodge rises several levels, giving the impression of a vast open-plan tree house. The rooms all have private balconies, most of which overlook a central waterhole, offering the opportunity to observe herds of buffalo, elephant and kudu, as the sun goes down, and hyenas later in the evening.
