Zambezi River Island Retreat Experience

Our Zambezi River Island Retreat allows you to escape to a beautiful lodge which is built on a couple of islands in the middle of the mighty Zambezi River. Relax and watch the gorgeous sunset while on a tranquil river cruise. Explore among the many islands of the Zambezi River in a traditional canoe called a Mokoro, and spot birds and wildlife. Feel like fishing? Test your skills against the fierce Tiger Fish. Discover the small creatures of the island while on a guided nature walk, followed by a tasty picnic lunch.

A thrilling guided tour of the mighty Victoria Falls is included. Choose to go on a mountain biking expedition to a local village and learn about the vibrant local culture. Perhaps visit the local school which the lodge supports. In the evening return to the lodge and savour sumptuous meals out on the deck under the stars.

Day 1: Johannesburg - Livingstone

On the first morning of your Zambezi River Island Retreat you will catch a morning flight from Johannesburg O. R. Tambo International Airport to Livingstone in Zambia. Once you have completed immigration you will be welcomed by a driver who will transport you to the lodge reception.

There will be a quick boat crossing and you will arrive at the lodge where you will spend the next 3 nights. Spend some time settling in, relax on the deck overlooking the brooding Zambezi or set out to explore the island by following the nature trail.

In the late afternoon, you can head out on a gentle sunset cruise. Sip on sundowners and watch the sun sink below the horizon before drifting back to the lodge for a decadent African inspired meal.

Day 2: Livingstone - Victoria Falls

The next morning, wake up and savour a tasty breakfast out on the terrace which has lovely views over the river. Afterwards, go on a trip to Livingstone and go on a guided tour of the mighty Victoria Falls (Zimbabwean side optional).

This will be followed by a trip to a market where you can by a memento of your trip - beads, ethnic fabric, basketwork or intricate carvings.

In the afternoon you might head out on a trip in a traditional canoe called a Mokoro and explore the islands of the Zambezi. Alternately, you might wish to try your luck fishing for Tiger Fish on a catch and release basis.
