On arrival at Victoria Falls, you are met and transferred to Ilala Lodge. One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, Victoria Falls is a sight not to be missed. When the river is in full flow in April and May, over a mile of unbroken surging water plunges into the Zambezi gorge below. Click here for more on Victoria Falls.

Today you have a short transfer to Old Drift Lodge which lies in its own private concession along the magnificent Zambezi River.

After breakfast, you are transferred by road to Hwange National Park. On arrival at the park, you are met by the camp and enjoy a game-viewing transfer by 4x4 vehicle to The Hide.

Hwange National Park is Zimbabwe’s premier game park. Hwange is big game country with massive herds of elephants, especially visible at the end of the dry season in September

After breakfast, you are transferred to the airstrip for your charter flight to Lake Kariba. On arrival at Lake Kariba, you are met and transferred by 4x4 vehicle to Changa Safari Camp.

In the optional 3 night extenson (April to October only), you continue to Mana Pools National Park. 

Mana Pools is renowned for its large numbers of elephant, buffalo, hippo, crocodile, and eland that concentrate along the river when the inland waterholes dry up - especially in the winter months. Leopard and lion are present but are not seen as regularly. This World Heritage Site is one of the least developed national parks in Zimbabwe. It is this overwhelming sense of wilderness, as well as its haunting beauty, which is a large part of the attraction of Mana Pools.

Enjoy game drives, boating, fishing and canoeing on the Zambezi River.

Today you fly back by seat in charter to Victoria Falls or to Harare (if you prefer).
