The Victoria Falls Hotel needs little introduction. This five-star Grande Dame opened her doors in 1904 and has long enjoyed superstar status within the global safari community. Blending colonial glamour with modern facilities, she’s not only easy on the eye but comfortable and welcoming, with a stellar location just next door to the ‘Smoke that Thunders’.

Located in a private reserve bordering Hwange National Park, Elephant’s Eye offers an intimate escape from the crowds. The tented chalets are well-placed for guests to view the waterhole where herds of elephants gather to drink. A major highlight here is, of course, the ‘The Eye’, a bucket list-worthy bush sleep-out where you can bed down right under the stars.

If wildlife viewing tops your agenda, snap up a few nights at Old Drift Lodge. Just a 15-minute drive from the Zambezi National Park and seven kilometres upstream of Victoria Falls, you’ll find yourself in the heart of all the action. This luxury river lodge features magnificent, tented suites with river frontage, outdoor showers and plunge pools, impeccable service and fine dining. Need we say more?
