Conclude your journey with 3 nights at Royal Chundu Island Lodge, a luxurious retreat on a private island in the Zambezi River. Unwind in elegant riverfront suites and indulge in gourmet dining.

Day 01

After arriving at Livingstone airport, it is a short drive to your accommodation which overlooks the Zambezi River. Waterberry Lodge includes a variety of activities such as sunset cruises, island picnics and market tours all which you will be able to enjoy during your stay here.

Day 02

Arise early for your microlight flight over the Victoria Falls, taking in the beauty of falls. Back on the ground, spend the rest of the morning exploring the waterfall seeing it from all angles

Day 03

Today you’ll head off on a multi-day rafting tour down the Zambezi River. Starting at the Boiling Pot (rapid number 1), right under the Victoria Falls you’ll paddle through the exhilarating waters. The Zambezi River is a deep channeled, high-volume river, with worldclass 3–5 rapids interspersed with tranquil pools, allowing you time to enjoy the magnificent scenery between tackling the rapids. Spend the night on the white sand beaches of the Batoka Gorge.

Day 04

Rise to the smell of bacon and eggs on the fire and the sun appears over the Batoka Gorge. Packing up everything on to the rafts, jump in and paddle further down the river. Stop off for lunch and a float through calmer waters. Set up camp tonight on a new beach, sleeping under the stars.

Day 05

Soak up your last day on the rapids today and end your rafting journey at about lunch time. For those looking for a challenge, hike out of the Batoka Gorge, traversing the interesting rock face. For those looking for a less challenging exit, chose to helicopter your way out, flying over the Victoria Falls and up the river, landing at the Royal Chundu Lodge. 

Day 06

Royal Chundu offer the chance to go tiger fishing – the predator of the Zambezi. Alternatively, you can choose to wind down, visit the spa, and enjoy some cocktails on your private deck overlooking the water.

Day 08

Enjoy a morning of leisure at the lodge before travelling to Livingstone Airport for your departure flight after a unique adventure.
