If you’re looking for a truly special Victoria Falls holiday experience, then consider The Elephant Camp. More than just a destination, it’s an experience, an encounter with nature and culture. Here you can view the power and majesty of the impressive Falls and take time on your private deck to relax and reflect. 

Rated one of the best lodges in Zimbabwe, The Elephant Camp is more than just a destination - it's an experience, characterised by immersive encounters with nature and enlightening cultural and conservation excursions. The lodge is famous for its magnificent views, spacious design and beautiful location in the Victoria Falls National Park. The main deck overlooks the cavernous Batoka Gorge, with the 'Smoke That Thunders' resting lightly on the horizon. Victoria Falls is a short twenty-minute transfer from the lodge, giving guests the freedom to tailor-make their experience and find a balance between the exclusivity of the bush and the excitement of Africa's Adventure Capital. 

From the sunken fire pit and boma dining area, to the private plunge pools and outdoor showers, The Elephant Camp promises an intimate safari experience in the heart of the wilderness. The uncluttered beauty of the interior spaces and the careful placement of each suite invites continuous engagements with nature, ensuring that the camp is enveloped by stillness and serenity. 

The imaginative use of canvas preserves the romance of yesteryear with a classic safari atmosphere, accentuated by thoughtful finishing touches. There is a seamless flow between the lodge and the surrounding wilderness, with an open plan design that echoes the easy rhythm of nature. Even the bathtub has a panoramic view of the landscape, and the well-stocked mini-bar is replenished daily for a safari sundowner on the private deck. The air-conditioned suites inspire meaningful connections with the wilderness, while harnessing the essence of adventure inherent to a safari experience.  

The dining experience reflects the breath-taking scenery and different seasonal ingredients. The outdoor pizza oven creates the opportunity for a connection between diners and chefs. While the handmade pizzas bake, you can relax on the eco-friendly deck and admire the sweeping landscape that stretches for miles before disappearing into the cavernous rift of the Batoka Gorge. This is a bush break holiday at its finest!
