Victoria Falls to Kariba

A thrilling adventure starting at the  the beautiful Victoria Falls, a world heritage site and the stunning Batoka Gorge where you will be staying at a spectacular lodge on the rim of the two hundred metre gorge, home to black eagles and other birds of prey.

You will then transfer to the private Nehimba concession in the scenically attractive northern section of the huge Hwange National Park, home to forty thousand elephants and all of Africa’s major predators, this is also one of the best areas of the reserve to see wild dog. Here you will enjoy superb game viewing and the full range of safari activities in a private concession within Hwange National Park. Your lodge has a wonderful location on the edge of an extremely busy waterhole where you can watch herds of elephant drink, bathe and play just a few metres from your deck.

For the third leg of your safari you will travel by road and rail on the “Elephant Express” with game viewing on route to the Ngamo Plains in the south of Hwange National Park, one of the best areas of the park for game viewing, highlights of which include lion, cheetah, roan and sable antelope.

You also have the option of joining the “Pump Run” on a game drive deep into the park delivering supplies to remote locations. Transfers on this safari are a fascinating combination of road transfers, light aircraft and the “Elephant Express” rail vehicle.

You have the option to extend your safari to include the wild and relatively unvisited Matusadona National Park and Lake Kariba which could be the perfect ending to a sparkling holiday.
