AU$ 6,877

DELUXE | TAILOR-MADE: Gaze upon mighty Victoria Falls, one of the world’s greatest natural attractions, cruise the Zambezi River, and head on safari game drives on the shores of Lake Kariba on this immersive vacation through Zimbabwe.


This 7-day Zimbabwean vacation takes you to Victoria Falls and a safari reserve near Lake Kariba. It features deluxe accommodations and private tours.

Your journey through Zimbabwe begins in Victoria Falls, the city that shares its name with the world’s mightiest waterfall. Spend a day touring the Zimbabwean side of the falls, seeing the Main Falls, Horseshoe Falls, and Livingstone Island, among other highlights. Hike through the rainforest and feel the mist of the falls sprinkle on your face before meeting the coursing waters face-to-face. Listen to the mighty roar of The Smoke That Thunders and drink in the spectacular view before you head to the Look Out Café, where you’ll enjoy a delicious meal and beautiful views of the falls from a restaurant perched above the Zambezi River. The next day, enjoy a luxury boat cruise along the Zambezi River, enjoying drinks and snacks as you float down the river.

Connect to Lake Kariba and your safari camp, where you’ll spend three nights in a safari concession near the world’s largest manmade lake. You’ll have two full days of safari activities, including morning and afternoon game drives to see elephants, cheetahs, antelope, and hippos. You can also head on walking safaris through the park, boat cruises and fishing excursions out onto the waters, and birding hikes to see the colourful assortment of birdlife near the lake.

At the end of your safari, connect back to Victoria Falls for onward travels.

Day 2

Tour of the Falls & The Look Out Cafe - Lunch Experience

No surprise why Victoria Falls is one of the seven Natural Wonders of the World! You'll understand it instantly as you tour the Zimbabwean side, for there are numerous spectacular vantage points along the width of the Falls, and the sight of this astounding gift of nature, simply takes your breath away. Walk through the permanent, beautifully misty rain forest which flanks the Falls, stopping to marvel at the principal sites as it cascades to the depths below: the Main Falls, Horseshoe Falls, Rainbow Falls, the Boiling Pot, Cataract Island and Livingstone Island. We'll stand and watch, feel and listen to the spray and thunderous noise, as millions of litres of water tumble over the Falls into a series of narrow gorges below. The seventh Natural Wonder of the World puts on the most dramatic show for you, and you'll be privileged to have watched it.

The Look Out Cafe is perched 120m above the turbulent rapids of the Zambezi River, overhanging a giant chasm of the Batoka Gorge, just down from the iconic Victoria Falls Bridge which forms part of it's spectacular backdrop. The semi open-air cafe, apart from offering undoubtedly the best view in Victoria Falls, offers a range of refreshing beverages as well as a lively cocktail menu. The Cafe's simplistic design creates a flow through, connecting indoor and outdoor dining space, offering diners a unique experience with breath taking views. If guests are looking for a fresh, vibrant menu with traditional as well as new flavors like local game meats and crocodile, situated in a great location (especially for activities such as the gorge swing) then the Lookout Cafe is the place for you.
