See Zimbabwe's wildlife without even leaving the hotel
Staying here feels like living in a spectacular open-plan treehouse, with top notch service and superb views over a waterhole.
Located on the border of Zambezi National Park in Zimbabwe, Victoria Falls Safari Lodge is an ideal destination for exploring this part of the country. Built out of timber and thatch, this impressive property resides beside a stunning waterhole that attracts a wide range of wildlife species. While the lodge’s activities focus on the waterhole and the wildlife, they can organise visits to the nearby town as well as high adrenaline activities and water sport activities at Victoria Falls. The lodge is five minutes from Victoria Falls and just a 15 minute drive from the airport.
Accommodation comprises of three different types of room. No matter which option that you choose, the room will be spacious and contain a comfortable, extra length bed(s), an en-suite bathroom and commodities such as ceiling fans, hair dryers and minibars. Each room also has sliding glass doors that lead to a private balcony. Most of the rooms overlook the lodge’s waterhole. Main areas include Makuwa-Kuwa restaurant and Buffalo Bar, both of which offer spectacular views over the waterhole. There is also a two tiered swimming pool, that also faces the waterhole.
As well as waterhole viewing, there are also a couple of hides, such as the Siduli Hide, which is an ideal place to get excellent close-up shots of elephants, and a bird hide where you can see a wide range of various bird species as well as stroll along the nearby nature trails at your leisure. The lodge also offers a Vulture Culture experience, where guests can watch hundreds of vultures being fed – a fantastic sight that shouldn’t be missed. For a cultural experience attend a dinner and drum show at the lodge’s restaurant.

January
January is an excellent time to head out with expert guides and view resident and migratory bird species. The days are warm, with the risk of rain, this clears very fast as it arrives.
February
February is the best time for birders. The days are warm, with the risk of afternoon rain showers, but they clear as fast as they arrive.
March
If you want to witness Vic Falls at its fullest, March is the month to visit, with huge volumes of spray, it is perfect if you want to see the gorges and geology of the area.
April
The world famous Mana Pools re-open in April. The days feel fresher as the wet season ends leaving the landscapes looking lush green, making it perfect for walking safaris.
May
In May, the days continue to feel fresh and bright making it a perfect time to venture out on walking safaris.
June
June heralds the return of winter, nights turn colder and the temperature dips - take plenty of layers as the temperature can drop below freezing. It is the perfect time for photographers to explore Hwange National Park before the busy holiday period.
July
Winter temperatures continue into July so take plenty of layers. Much like June, it is perfect for photographers looking to view wildlife from a different angle.
August
If you want clear, bright blue skies and continuous wildlife sightings, August is the month for you. Camps are likely to be fuller, however, if you visit private concessions you can still experience exclusivity and no crowds.
September
Much like August, September is an amazing time for wildlife spotting and weather, in particular it is considered the best time of year to see elephant herds in Hwange National Park.
October
In October wildlife sightings are at their peak as the dry season ends. If you travel during this month you can experience hot days with temperatures soaring up to 40 degrees.
November
November is the best time to head out with expert guides and view resident and migratory bird species. The days are warm, with the risk of rain, this clears very fast as it arrives. It is low season and one of the best times to go white water rafting at Vic Falls, the volume and speed of the water is reduced exposing the rapids.
December
In December the days are warm with the risk of rain showers mid afternoon. The rivers rise and dependant on water levels travellers can visit 'devils pool' at Vic Falls, providing high excitement and a head for heights needed if you want to get close to the drop off.
