This 2 night stay near the Victoria Falls is designed to be easily combined with a safari to Botswana: you will stay at the comfortable yet authentic Songwe Village, which is perched on a spectacular gorge, 120m above the Zambezi River. Songwe Village offers very genuine cultural activities and if you would like more contact with local people, then this is the lodge for you.

See our trips to Botswana for examples of suitable safari itineraries in Botswana to combine with this add-on.

Days 1-2 Livingstone & Victoria Falls, Zambia

Arriving in Livingstone, you'll transfer to Songwe Village by road for 2 nights. During this time you can relax at the lodge, whilst having the option to join in with the various activities that Songwe offers. Click below for further details of the accommodation at Songwe –
