Wildlife Encounters

Set in two acres of private reserve, yet only 15 minutes from Victoria Falls, this hotel offers unique access to the wildlife of Zimbabwe. Choose from a morning or afternoon game drive in the private reserve, an exclusive Black Rhino Conservation Experience, a sunrise or sunset cruise along the Zambezi River, or a guided tour of the iconic Falls. Early morning and evening game drives are offered through the 4,000-hectare reserve, home to the Big Five - including the critically endangered black rhino. Watch the watering hole for passing animals, enjoy time at the iconic Victoria Falls spotting an array of native birds, spot mammals such as the chacma baboons, vervet monkeys, or ask the concierge to arrange a private game drive, bushwalk or horse ride.

Adventure Travel

For guests eager to immerse themselves in the very best of Victoria Falls, Stanley & Livingstone offers an exceptional base, with two complimentary activities included per night of stay. A complimentary shuttle provides easy access to Victoria Falls town and its many attractions, while the lodge itself offers a peaceful retreat away from the crowds.

It's a destination in its own right, inviting guests to return each day to a truly tranquil wilderness sanctuary.

Climate

Zimbabwe enjoys a moderate year-round climate. During winter (May to October) days are sunny with cool nights and temperatures can drop as low as 0°. This is the best time for game-viewing as the bush is thinner and the animals tend to congregate near the water holes. Summers (November to April) are hot with rain falling most afternoons. White-water rafting enthusiasts should visit between August and December when the waters of the Zambezi River are low. Those wishing to visit the Victoria Falls should do so after the rainy season (April and May) – although the spray may obscure your views slightly. Alternatively, at the end of the dry season (October to December), the water levels are low – you can sit in a rock pool and peer over the edge – if you dare!

Wildlife

We recommend that your tailor-made itinerary in Zimbabwe includes at least one national park. Hwange National Park is the country's largest, covering some 1.4 million hectares over a variety of different habitats. Overlooking the Zambezi, Mana Pools National Park offers you the chance to spot wildlife as you cruise along the river. For those seeking remoteness and pristine wilderness, Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve is where to head, with just one lodge nestled in 130,000 acres! Game drives, walking safaris and bird-watching expeditions can be enjoyed in all these enchanting areas.

Culture and Community

With 16 official languages, Zimbabwe has a fascinating, rich and diverse cultural heritage. Many camps and lodges have their own engaging programmes through which you can interact with the locals and learn more about their communities, while many also have schemes in place to support these local people, teaching everything from cookery to poacher tracking.

Victoria Falls

Perhaps Zimbabwe’s most famous attraction, Victoria Falls lies at the border of Zimbabwe and Zambia. Named after Queen Victoria, the locals refer to it as ‘Mosi-o-Tunya’ or, ‘the smoke that thunders’, due to the spray created by the water. There are plenty of walking trails to view the falls... but expect to get wet from the spray! One of the best ways to appreciate the scale of the falls is to take a scenic helicopter flight over them. During a full moon, ‘moonbows’ are sometimes created over Victoria Falls. This natural phenomenon is when rainbows created by the spray are illuminated by the light of the full moon.

Cruising the Zambezi River and Lake Kariba

Sunrise and sunset are some of the best times to cruise Zimbabwe’s wildlife dense waterways, during which the light is perfect for photography, especially if there are animals at the shoreline. The MV Matusadona offers a three-night luxury cruise on Lake Kariba, mooring at a different location each evening. Meanwhile, for the more adventurous, canoeing safaris are available on the Zambezi River from Mana Pools National Park.
