Our early morning and late afternoon drives, led by expert Field Guides, take guests into a wilderness where the abundance of wildlife is king. Traversing its basalt plains, open grasslands and teak forests to meet the shores of the Masuwe River, guests encounter a great diversity of animals. This includes all of the Big Five, with a healthy population of the extremely rare and endangered black rhino.
Being in a private reserve, vehicles have the freedom to follow herds through the bush with ‘consideration for the delicate ecosystem’ and observe their natural behaviour. Guest are in for another treat with the refreshment (coffee, tea and biscuits in the morning, and local branded beverages and snacks in the afternoon) stops set up at a scenic spot on the reserve.
Walking Safari
Ours is the only walking safari of its kind in a private Big Five Reserve within the vicinity of Victoria Falls. Traversing the wilderness by vehicle allows guests to see more big game while walking in the bush puts them directly in touch with nature.
The purpose of our walking safaris is the full appreciation of this rich natural kingdom and the beauty of these unique habitats. Guides will tailor walks around guests’ personal interests, focusing on mammals as well as birds, insects, reptiles, plants, geology, etc.
Horseback Safari
At Victoria Falls Private Game Reserve, riders explore just as the earliest pioneers did in this African Eden, unchanged by time. Together with two professional guides, small groups of no more than six riders come within meters of shy plains game, including zebra, eland and a variety of other antelope. On experienced rides, there is the excitement of tracking and maybe finding the fabulous black rhino and other big game.
Rhino Conservation
Victoria Falls Private Game Reserve (VFPGR) was awarded custodianship of four black rhino in June 2006. The late afternoon activity includes an immersive talk with an expert VFPGR Guide, followed by a drive into the reserve in search of the black rhino. This experience is a very personal and unique view into the world of a pre-historic creature now fighting for its survival on this planet.
Zambezi fishing
The Zambezi River is renowned for the quality of its tiger fishing. It has become a bucket-list destination for avid fresh-water anglers determined to ‘take on’ this ferocious game fish.
Tour of Victoria Falls
Walking through the riverine forest and along the falls, you’ll learn more about this environment and its history, before arriving at Dr Livingstone’s statue. Standing next to this landmark becomes nostalgic when considering a lone man made his way through deepest Africa, coming across tribes he could not communicate with and battling illness, to be the first non-African to lay eyes on the falls.
Victoria Falls canopy tour
Whizz through the forest and out over the Zambezi rapids, catching a glimpse of Victoria Falls Bridge and the dense spray from the falls beyond. Along the way you’ll likely encounter small woodland animals and plenty of birds, like the Knysna turaco and purple turaco louries.
Helicopter flights, whitewater rafting, bungee jumping, zip line, gorge swing and many more.
