Stanley Safari Lodge

Victoria Falls - Livingstone, Zambia

4/4

A relaxed, low-key safari lodge with access to all Vic Falls activities but away from the hustle and bustle.

Stanley Safari Lodge borders the Mosi oa Tunya National Park and is set on a hill overlooking a stretch of bush and beyond to the "smoke" of the Victoria Falls. The lodge is small and intimate and is just far enough away from the Vic Falls action to make a difference to your experience. Other than a village tour, no activities are offered from the lodge so you still need to travel a short distance to enjoy boat trips, adrenalin activities and tours of the falls. All these activities are in addition to the room rate.

All of the ten rooms are different with half being entirely open to views of the bush and Zambezi in the distance. They are all comfortable and spacious, some with private plunge pools or open-air baths. A lot of thought has been put into distinctive features and the overall effect is one of homeliness and informality.

Victoria Falls - Livingstone

Livingstone is the little town from which visitors to Zambia can visit the Victoria Falls, relax on the Zambezi or indulge in the multitude of crazy adrenalin activities available.  Unlike Victoria Falls town in Zimbabwea which is within easy walking distance of the Falls, Livingstone is about 6km from the Falls itself and you need to get in a car to get there.  Whether the Falls is best viewed from Zambia or Zimbabwe is a rather subjective issue and depends on who you talk to and the time of year.  From Zambia, you look along the gorge and the area of the Falls immediately in front of the Zambian view points can dry up at certain times of the year.  Both countries suffer when the river is in spate as you see an awful lot of spray and not much of the falls themselves...you also get a free shower.

Zambia
