Taita Falcon Lodge
Victoria Falls- Zambia

Style, sophistication and exceptional scenery are at the heart of this luxury lodge, which has breathtaking views of the mighty Zambezi River and The Bakota Gorge, which drops some 226 metres down from the lodge. Being in close proximity of the Victoria Falls, this lodge offers guests the opportunity to tour these spectacular world-renowned landmarks.

The Taita Falcon Lodge offers an intimate bush experience, being located above the Zambezi River. It consists of 7 chalets with a rustic feel, which are furnished using indigenous materials by local craftsmen. The reed walls of the chalets are at three-quarter height but can be raised to the full height if required. There are mosquito nets on all beds and coils are used in the evenings. The chalets are en-suite, and they have either a double bed, or two single beds. This lodge prides itself in being eco-friendly, and uses gas heating for the shower water, and solar power for the lighting in the chalets.

On the outside of each chalet is a private and secluded sun garden, complete with outdoor shower for 'close to nature' moments. The restaurant is on the deck, covered with a thatched roof, overlooking the gorge. This gives an amazing view, which complements the delectable meals served. At Taita Falcon Lodge, it's simple to take things easy, but there is also a wide array of activities which cater for the more active guests. Activity options to chose from include guided bush & bird walks, a cultural village tour, a visit to Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya), a sunset game viewing cruise and a Livingstone town tour. There are also extreme activities such as white-water rafting, abseiling, and bungee-jumping.

The icing on the cake is the incredible and hospitable service of the staff, which makes Taita Falcon Lodge a perfect haven for relaxing in a luxurious, yet friendly environment.
