We had a wonderful stay at Victoria Falls River Lodge. It was our first stop on our African holiday and it didn’t disappoint. We did 2 camp drives, 2 river boat cruises and the staff helped facilitate our helicopter ride and canopy tour at the falls. The lodge accommodations were amazing, a splash pool with each unit. The food was outstanding, and plentiful, as were the drinks. And the staff were attentive and welcoming. In particular we appreciated Blessing’s attention to detail, Dickson, Dean and Admire’s wonderful service at meals and Chips being an incredible guide/teacher. We highly recommend the River Lodge.

We arrived at the lodge after time in Kane, Botswana and a 2 day cruise on the Chobe River (fabulous!). The lodge was beautiful and well kept. The view from our chalet was out to a waterhole not 30 yards away. The food was very good and the two safari rides each day were special and different from one another. The guide was knowledgeable and easy.

My husband and I wanted to do a trip to Africa but also have somewhat of a luxurious stay. Victoria Falls River Lodge had a variety of activities to do, which is why we picked this hotel. It's right on the river, has Victoria Falls nearby, and the staff was amazing! They took care of everything and made our stay exceptional!

Staying at Victoria Falls River Lodge was nothing short of a dream come true. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into a world of magic and romance, surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of nature. Every detail of our experience was exquisite, creating memories we will cherish forever. Our lodge was like something out of a storybook—spacious, beautifully appointed, and perfectly maintained. The decor balanced elegance with a sense of connection to the wild, making us feel luxuriously pampered yet deeply in tune with nature. And our neighbors? Majestic elephants who wandered by, visiting us so often that we truly felt like we were sharing our stay with these gentle giants. The lodge staff were some of the friendliest, warmest people we’ve ever met. Their care and attentiveness made us feel like royalty, yet at home. Every meal was a feast for the senses—breakfast, lunch, dinner, and even the delicious snacks were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. We looked forward to each meal, knowing it would be another moment of joy and indulgence. Our days were filled with wonder. The sunrise and sunset cruises on the Zambezi River were magical, painting the sky in colors that felt almost too beautiful to be real. Gliding down the river as the sun dipped below the horizon, with hippos and crocodiles in view, we felt as if time had slowed down just for us. And the tour to the Victoria Falls cataract pool took our breath away—a reminder of nature’s grandeur and beauty. Victoria Falls River Lodge is more than a place to stay; it’s an experience, a romance with nature, and a piece of paradise. We can’t recommend it enough to anyone seeking beauty, adventure, and a deep sense of peace. We are already dreaming of the day we return.

There are not enough good things written about this property on the internet. Staying in one of the Island Treehouses was one of the single most incredible and unique experiences for this lifetime traveller. I'm so glad we ended up here on a whim. Cheers to the warm and wonderful staff for making our trip special and here's to this place finding the audience it deserves.
