Victoria Falls

Hwange National Park

Day 1

Today you will arrive into Victoria Falls Airport where you will be collected by your driver and transferred to your hotel where you will stay for three nights. Spend the afternoon settling into the hotel. This evening you could stay at the hotel and watch the spray of the Falls in the distance whilst enjoying sundowner drinks and dinner on the terrace.

Day 2

Today is a full day at leisure to explore Victoria Falls. You could take a guided tour of the Falls by foot. Alternatively, if you are feeling more adventurous you could take a helicopter flight over the Falls, or even do a bungee jump off the bridge into the gorge. There are many other activities that can be discussed.

Day 3

Today is a full day at leisure to explore Victoria Falls town. We can arrange a ‘Shopping with a Purpose’ tour with a guide where you can explore the town and purchase a few items that you can then deliver to specific projects or organisations that require them in the local villages – a fab way to explore the town and learn about the local projects whilst contributing to the local communities.

Day 4

Today you will be collected by your driver and driven approximately three and a half hours to Hwange National Park. You will be met by a guide from your camp and driven through the park on a minim game drive to your lodge where you will stay for two nights. Enjoy a bite to eat and refreshments before your late afternoon game drive with your guide.

Day 5

Today is a full day on safari with morning and afternoon safari activities such as game drives or walking safaris. Between the safaris you will have time to relax at the lodge enjoying brunch and high tea as well as any game sightings from the lodge itself. In the evening you will enjoy drinks around the campfire and a hearty 3-course meal.

Day 6

Today you will enjoy the morning game drive or walk and brunch, as normal. You will then be transferred to a different lodge within the National Park. The transfer will be part of today’s game drive, depending on how far away the next lodge is. You may stop for a picnic lunch in one of the superb lookout hides within the park. You will then arrive at your new lodge where you will spend the next two nights on safari, making the most of a different area of the park.

Day 7

Day 8

Today you will take a morning game drive to the main gate of the park where you will then be met by your driver who will transfer you back to Victoria Falls International Airport in time for your onward flight.
