Victoria Falls River Lodge

Nestled on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, within the Zambezi National Park, Victoria Falls River Lodge’s Luxury Tented Suites offer wonderful wildlife viewing opportunities, impressive accommodations, easy access to the historic town of Victoria Falls and the opportunity to visit the world-famous Falls. These luxurious thatched tents are well spaced and air-conditioned and are close enough to see the spray of the falls but far enough to have total seclusion in the Zambezi National Park. Constructed of canvas, glass and timber, each extends out onto a private deck with its own plunge pool which boasts uninterrupted views of the Zambezi River and the natural surroundings. Victoria Falls River Lodge is a third time winner of the Conde Nast Johansens award for ‘Best waterside hotel’ in Africa, Asia, Middle East and Oceania.
