Victoria Falls River Lodge

Archive article. 

Victoria Falls River Lodge is a luxurious safari lodge nestled on the banks of the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe. It offers spacious tented suites with private decks and stunning river views. Guests can enjoy gourmet dining, guided game drives, river cruises, and visits to Victoria Falls. The lodge provides a serene and immersive experience, blending luxury with the natural beauty of the African wilderness.

What I liked the most: The suites are uniquely designed, and each has its own bathtub and outdoor shower. The staff are kind, the food very good compared to many African lodges and the game viewing is great, especially thanks to excellent guides.

Some info: They consider The Elephant Camp their biggest competitor as Stanley and Livingstone and The Victoria Falls Hotel are different kind of experiences. Finally, its worth noting the excellent value in Victoria Falls River Lodges’ all-inclusive rates, especially compared to The Victoria Falls Hotels B&B-rates. In Victoria Falls you have quite a few options, but Victoria Falls River Lodge is one of the best options. The lodge could probably be a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World but at the time of my visit it was not a member of any such marketing organisations.
