Start your tour from Victoria  Falls

Plenty to see and do around the Falls, not just the magnificent Falls themselves.

Victoria Falls National Park is a haven for birdlife, boasting over 400 different species. The park’s diverse habitats, from the Zambezi River to the rainforest and woodlands, support a wide array of birds. Some notable species include the African Fish Eagle, the African Finfoot, Schalow’s Turaco, and various hornbills.

Here you could stay at The Elephant Camp.  Perched on a private concession with breathtaking views of the Victoria Falls spray and Batoka Gorge, The Elephant Camp offers an intimate and eco-luxurious safari experience. Thoughtfully designed suites feature private plunge pools and elegant interiors, blending seamlessly with nature. Guests enjoy immersive wildlife encounters, gourmet dining and exclusive activities, from game drives in the Zambezi National Park to sunset cocktails at the Batoka gorge’s edge. With a strong commitment to conservation and community upliftment, The Elephant Camp is the perfect retreat for those seeking adventure, serenity and sustainable luxury in the heart of Africa.

Transfer from Victoria Falls to Deteema (This can be by road or with Mack Air to Robins Airstrip)

Deteema Springs is a small concession area in a well-known northern region of the Hwange National Park. Close to the Deteema dam, the camp is perched on a slight rocky rise above permanent water springs, offering magnificent views of large concentrations of animals, including elephants. While night safaris are not allowed due to park regulations, Deteema offers amazing opportunities for walking safaris and viewing wildlife from the comfort of the camp.
