Upstream from Victoria Falls, discover The River Club, a luxurious camp with chalets facing the Zambezi River.
EXPERIENCE
The River Club is a safari camp straight from the Edwardian era, but with modern luxuries. Located on the edge of the Zambezi River, the hotel is minutes from Victoria Falls, one of the most beautiful natural sites in the world. With rich bird life, hippo sightings, and fishing trips, The River Club is a wonderful spot for relaxing after a long safari.
The 10 luxury thatched chalets, decorated with Edwardian-style furniture, are all completely open to the river on one side, so you can watch the sun set on the Zambezi from the privacy of your bed or clawfoot bath.
Have breakfast or tea on the wide veranda, then take a boat ride on the Zambezi and drift past hippos and crocodiles floating in the water. At sunset, enjoy a croquet game (with a Pimm's in hand, of course) on the manicured gardens. If you're an adrenaline junkie, go white water rafting or bungee jumping over the Falls. Afterward (or instead), relax in the infinity pool, or lounge in a hammock on the secluded deck.
