From here, you enjoy privileged access to the Falls and a curated selection of inclusive experiences, balancing adventure, culture, and relaxed exploration along the Zambezi River and Batoka Gorge.

The safari concludes with a flight to Lake Kariba for three nights at Changa Safari Lodge, set within Matusadona National Park. This final chapter offers a more relaxing rhythm, with water-based safaris, shoreline game viewing, and sweeping lake vistas.

This safari can be adapted to suit your travel style and timing. Nights in Victoria Falls can be adjusted up or down, alternative lodges substituted, or you can add other destinations such as a few nights in Cape Town (with direct flights from Victoria Falls). Or a few nights in the Okavango Delta.
If you have more time, Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools can also be incorporated for an even deeper safari experience (May to October). See our 12-night Zimbabwe Safari Β Explorer.

Good to Know
- Changa Safari Lodge operates year-round. But green-season flights (November to March) usually require private charter so best if you are a party of 4-6 people.
- Alternative camps and flight options are available during the green season. See our Upgrade Option and also chat to us for other options.
- If you substitute alternative camps than the ones shown here, you may lose the complimentary night
Note Indicative Pricing Only – Zimbabwe has increased VAT and added VAT to previously non-vateable services. This is our best estimate of new prices at this point, though they may be less.
