The Wallow Lodge is situated in a private game reserve, peacefully nestled in the heart of the Victoria Falls National Park. The tented camp is set along the banks of the Masuwe River, surrounded by 4,500 acres of wilderness that stretch to the horizon and where a cloud of mist from ‘Mosi-Au-Tunya’ smears the skyline.
Victoria Falls is a short twenty-minute transfer from the lodge, giving guests the freedom to tailor-make their experience and find a balance between the exclusivity of the bush and the excitement of Africa’s Adventure Capital.

Despite the beauty of the Falls themselves, this region warrants the reputation as an adventure centre, offering a plethora of adrenaline-inducing activities both in and around the Falls. All of the hotels that we offer are also destinations in their own right, either boasting magnificent locations right on the Zambezi River, or surrounded by natural reserves home to some of Africa’s most magnificent wildlife.

Locally known as ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’, translating to the ‘The Smoke That Thunders’, Victoria Falls are deservedly one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Forming a natural border between Zambia and Zimbabwe, fed by the mighty Zambezi River, the Falls are a sight to behold!

The 100m vertical chasm spanning the full one and a half kilometre width of the river, creates the biggest curtain of falling water in the world and one of the most extraordinary displays of nature’s might and magnificence.

All of our holiday packages to Victoria Falls are sold as two night adventures, perfect for anyone looking for a luxury break but without too much time to take leave. Whether you’re planning the ultimate proposal, want to celebrate a special birthday, or simply need to treat yourself or your special someone, Victoria Falls is the place to be.

A holiday here is about so much more than just the Falls themselves, with a variety of adventure activities, some of the best game viewing in the world, and river cruises amongst hippos and elephants. Whether you’re seeing the Falls for the first time or planning a hair-raising bungee jump, there is so much to do and see! Victoria Falls will not disappoint.

Victoria Falls is situated in a summer rainfall region. Locals consider there to be two distinct climates - the dry season and the wet season. The dry season begins in May and extends through autumn and winter into October. Generally, the rains begin during the course of November and, by December, the wet season has usually set in with hot daytime temperatures, lightened by torrential downpours that generally take place during the late afternoon.

In early summer, the water level in the Zambezi is at its lowest, and the spray from the Falls is least dense, allowing for more visibility and better photographic conditions. Low water levels mean that parts of the Falls dry up, particularly on the Zambian side, but this is when Devil’s Pool is accessible. During late summer, when the Zambezi is pumping, the spray from the Falls is intense and any visitor to the rainforest can expect to be soaked.

May to November are the best months for most visitors but… if you want to see the Victoria Falls in full power, go between March and May. If your main reason to visit is for the white water-rafting, go between August and early January when the rapids are at their best. If a safari is your priority, go between May and October when the vegetation is low and animals are more easily spotted.

The indigenous languages are Ndebele and Shona but English is the official language and is widely spoken and understood. The Zimbabwean dollar is no longer a valid currency and almost all transactions are conducted in US Dollars.

As Victoria Falls is situated in a malaria zone, it is recommended that you consult your physician on the correct preventative medication required before you travel.

Casual, comfortable clothing is suitable throughout the year. Throw in a few warmer items between April and August, especially for early mornings and late evenings and jeans or trousers for evenings and cooler days is recommended. That said you’ll want some elegant outfits for dinner. Sunglasses, suntan lotion and insect repellent are a must. Also don’t forget some sturdy walking shoes and your binoculars. Please note that camouflage clothing is banned in Zimbabwe.
