Zimbabwe Adventure Safari

Adventure and Luxury combined beautifully.

This stunning tented adventure takes in Hwange National Park, Mana Pools National Park and Victoria Falls with a total of 9 nights staying in traditional luxury accommodation. With Hemingway style tents and activities including game drives, walking and canoeing this trip will take you into the wild heart of Africa.

You start this safari on the banks of the Zambezi River in Mana Pools National Park, after a flight from Harare, a game-rich area with stunning views over one of Africa's mightiest rivers. Your camp here is in the Hemingway style of the European expeditions into Africa but with lots of modern comforts including bucket showers and flushing toilets.
Your second location lies in Hwange National Park with a flight from Mana Pools. Your first camp is Somalisa Expeditions which lies in a small private area within the national park with access to some of the best areas. The Wildlife of Hwange is superb and you won't be disappointed with superb guides, great accommodation and excellent food.
Finally you end up on the Zambian side of Victoria Falls with a slight upgrade in accommodation for your final three nights at Thorntree River Lodge. Here you get much more than the usual Victoria Falls experience with activities included such as Rhino tracking in Mosi-ao-Tunya National Park, Motorboat Cruises, Canoeing and a tour of the falls. You can also book (at extra cost) others activities on arrival such as the flight of the angels.

Accommodation

Zambezi Expeditions Camp

Zambezi Expeditions showcases one of the most magnificent settings in Zimbabwe’s iconic Mana Pools National Park. Comfortable yet classic, the camp offers the kind of intimacy with nature that can only be achieved by immersing yourself in the heart of the wild. Fall asleep to the sound of the flowing river and chuckles of hippo and wake-up with the dawn chorus to a spectacular African sunrise. At Zambezi Expeditions you will connect with nature in a deep and meaningful way.

Somalisa Expeditions Camp

Somalisa Expeditions exudes adventure and brings you face to face with Africa’s giants. Sit in your armchair and let nature venture to you. Somalisa Expeditions is a place of bonfires, where stories and laughter are shared and where the striking African sky evolves from a bright orange blaze, with silhouetted acacia trees on the horizon, to the twilight of the night sky.

Thorntree River Lodge

Beautifully designed Thorntree River Lodge graces the banks of Zambia’s glorious Zambezi River in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park. Find perfect respite after a day of activities by relaxing in the infinity pool that seamlessly blends into the river horizon. Thorntree River Lodge celebrates the spirit of community. After a refreshing sundowner drink while watching an exquisite African sunset, spend your evening sharing stories of your safari around the fire from within the comfort of the sunken boma before enjoying our African inspired fine-dining experience.
