Day 1 to 2 - Victoria Falls, Livingstone
Upon arrival in Livingstone you are transferred to your Zambezi
riverside resort. You have time to unwind before making
your way onto the gangplank from the restaurant terrace
to board our two tiered boat for a sunset cruise on the
mighty Zambezi River. A free bar and buffet await us on
board as we meander up and down river hoping to spot animals
on the river banks. If we are lucky we will see elephant,
hippo, crocodile and even the occasional rhino before a
beautiful sunset makes a wonderful end to a magic introduction
to this area. The following day we get the chance to interact
with the largest land mammals on earth, elephants. We spend
about an hour with these gentle giants as we walk with
them through African bushveld witnessing their movement
and behavior. If we are lucky we may even see them bathe
in a waterhole or on the banks of the Zambezi River.
Days 3 to 4 - Victoria Falls,
Zimbabwe
Today we are transferred over the Livingstone Bridge straddling
the Batoka gorge and into Zimbabwe. Our beautiful tented
camp situated a short drive from town is also where we have
the opportunity to interact with another one of Africa 'Big
5' - lion. There is a group of lion cubs that range from
3 to 16 months of age and offers guests an unparalleled experience
and insight into the behavior of this threatened African
species. The "walking with lions" encounter is
an opportunity to interact with 2 or 3 cubs for up to an
hour and a half during a single session. The lions are unrestrained
and roam free as you join them on a walk through riverine
vegetation and African bush on the banks of the Masuwe River.
The encounter is fully supervised and professionally managed
by an experienced and qualified team who have been working
with lions for over 20 years originally at Gweru's Antelope
Park. The following day you have the whole day to explore
Victoria Falls or engage in various activities on offer here.
Our last dinner in Zimbabwe is at 'The Boma', a African themed
restaurant specializing in exotic foods and game meats.
Day 5 to 6 - Victoria Falls,
Zambia
We return to waterfront resort in Zambia where we have another
day to take up activities that we may have booked previously
or simply relax on the restaurant verandah overlooking the
Zambezi River. The following day you are transferred to the
airport for you onwards journey.
