Accommodation | Zambia | Zambezi Waterfront
The Zambezi Waterfront is situated approx. 4kms upstream from the Victoria Falls, just opposite Siloka Island and with a clear view of the spray from the Falls. The Zambezi Waterfront is designed to cater for all travellers who wish to experience the mighty Zambezi River, the wonder of the Victoria Falls and the many activities on offer in the area without great expense. Accommodation ranges from en-suite chalets to good quality, fully serviced safari tents and camping. The Zambezi Waterfront complex has 14 standard twin chalets, six of which overlook the river. There are also three executive rooms and four family rooms. A raised wooden deck stretches out over the river with a unique plunge pool, an open bar, reception and a merchandising shop. The Key attraction of the area is obviously the mighty Zambezi River. Getting onto the river is a must, and with this in mind, the Waterfront offers the famous MV Makumbi, a 100-passenger double decker cruise boat for river cruises. Activities available at the Waterfront include game drives through the Mosi Oa Tunya National Park, white water rafting, Riverboarding, jetboating, abseiling, gorge swings, Kayaking, canoeing, horse trails, elephant back rides and fishing. Also on offer is bungi jumping, helicopter and microlight flips over the Falls, tours of the Falls, village tours, sunset or breakfast river cruises. NOTE: Certain activities should be booked well in advance, due to limited number of seats available.

Kaingu Lodge, Kafue. (October)
First of all - the drawbacks - in the GMA so game a bit on the scarce side - I knew this so no urprise. The Tetze Fly - that I did'nt know about. They
were not in camp but any vehicle safaris had to be done in a closed vehicle as they were voracious which also made photography awkward.
The pluses - the camp was lovely, well-appointed with everything we needed.
Tents overlooked the river - pretty and the food was very good - Vivi actually drove 3 times to Lusaka to ensure fresh supplies. The river surely
must be the best in Africa - it was so picturesque, narrow in places with beautiful rounded boulders, twisting and turning so a new view with every
backwater, hippos rumbling and eles wading across to the islands to feed.
We fished every day catching yellow fin, not a day passed without landing something. Our guide helpful and courteous. Tom has started a community venture - rebuilding an iron mine which we visited and also a tour to an
aquarmarine mine proved interesting - and free!!! |
