OLD DRIFT LODGE
Upstream from the iconic Victoria Falls in the Zambezi National Park lies a pristine piece of land on the banks of the Zambezi River. The untouched natural beauty of the park is sprawled over 56 000 breathtaking hectares. The activities offered at Old Drift Lodge emphasise the rich natural environment, focusing on the abundance of wildlife that roam through the Park and swim the Zambezi River. The Zambezi National Park can be explored by road, river or on foot, satisfying guests needs to experience every aspect of this natural utopia.
The main lodge area has 360-degree views, north facing onto the Zambezi & south facing onto a water hole. Only 4.5 kilometres from the town of Victoria Falls, Old Drift Lodge is the closest lodge within the National Park to Victoria Falls. Luxury boats transport guests to our natural utopia where we are able to accommodate safari goers in 10 double suites and 4 family suites.
Old Drift Lodge offers family friendly accommodation, with each air-conditioned suite decorated with stylish furnishings, fitting of the bygone eras, which blend in seamlessly with the natural environment. The spacious canvas en-suite rooms all have a private lounge, indoor and outdoor showers, plunge pool and an outdoor bath overlooking the Zambezi.
ELEPHANT CAMP
Rated one of the best lodges in Zimbabwe, The Elephant Camp is more than just a destination – it’s an experience, characterised by immersive encounters with nature and enlightening cultural and conservation excursions. The lodge is famous for its magnificent views, spacious design and beautiful location in the Victoria Falls National Park. The main deck overlooks the cavernous Batoka Gorge, with the ‘Smoke That Thunders’ resting lightly on the horizon. Victoria Falls is a short twenty-minute transfer from the lodge, giving guests the freedom to tailor-make their experience and find a balance between the exclusivity of the bush and the excitement of Africa’s Adventure Capital.
From the sunken fire pit and boma dining area, to the private plunge pools and outdoor showers, The Elephant Camp promises an intimate safari experience in the heart of the wilderness. The uncluttered beauty of the interior spaces and the careful placement of each suite invites continuous engagements with nature, ensuring that the camp is enveloped by stillness and serenity.
The imaginative use of canvas preserves the romance of yesteryear with a classic safari atmosphere, accentuated by thoughtful finishing touches. There is a seamless flow between the lodge and the surrounding wilderness, with an open plan design that echoes the easy rhythm of nature. Even the bathtub has a panoramic view of the landscape, and the well-stocked mini-bar is replenished daily for a safari sundowner on the private deck. The air-conditioned suites inspire meaningful connections with the wilderness, while harnessing the essence of adventure inherent to a safari experience.
