The Wallow Lodge

Overview

Nestled in the dappled shade of ancient riverine trees, The Wallow Lodge offers a perfect balance of wild seclusion and proximity to Victoria Falls' adventure hub. Located on a private 4,500-acre concession within the Victoria Falls National Park, this intimate, eco-conscious camp sits directly on the banks of the meandering Masuwe River. It’s a peaceful sanctuary just a 20-minute drive from the Falls, allowing for easy exploration while providing a genuine retreat from the crowds. The lodge features just 16 luxury tented suites, each elevated to maximize views over the river and a waterhole frequented by elephants and other wildlife. The design seamlessly blends classic safari romance with contemporary comfort, emphasizing a low-impact, sustainable footprint. With solar power, a zero-plastic-bottle policy, and decking made from recycled materials, The Wallow is a leader in responsible tourism. Its fully inclusive model covers not just exceptional meals and drinks but also a curated selection of daily activities, including game drives on the private reserve, a guided tour of the Falls, and an educational visit to the on-site Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust. It's an ideal choice for travellers seeking an authentic, intimate, and conservation-focused safari experience.
