If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to be wrapped in luxury while watching elephants saunter by at sunset, let me introduce you to The Wallow Lodge, nestled in the Wild Horizons Wildlife Sanctuary just outside Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe.

This is not your average lodge. This is your “I’ll never forget this trip” lodge.

Luxury Safari Lodge Experience in Zimbabwe

Perched on the edge of the Masuwe River, The Wallow Lodge offers a boutique safari experience that makes you feel like the star of a National Geographic film—but with high-thread-count sheets and champagne in hand.

The tents? Think elegant canvas suites with floor-to-ceiling mesh walls, private decks, and freestanding soaking tubs. You’ll fall asleep to the soundtrack of hippos grunting and wake up to birdsong and fresh-brewed coffee delivered right to your tent.

Yes, delivered.

Sustainable, Guilt-Free Luxury

One of my favorite things about The Wallow Lodge is its commitment to conservation. The lodge partners with The Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust, and a portion of your stay supports anti-poaching, animal rescue, and wildlife research. So while you’re soaking in the tub with a gin & tonic, you’re also supporting elephant conservation.

That’s what I call luxury that feels good.

Things to Do Near The Wallow Lodge & Victoria Falls

Sure, you’ll have plenty of up-close wildlife moments, but The Wallow Lodge is also minutes from the thundering Victoria Falls.

You can:

• Zip-line across the gorge

• Visit the elephant sanctuary

• Explore local markets and villages

• Or simply sit on your deck and count the warthogs (I named one Kevin)

Dining with a View (and No Fence)

Meals at The Wallow Lodge are served under the stars or in the open-air dining area with sweeping views of the bush. The food? Fresh, locally sourced, and surprisingly refined for being in the middle of nowhere. And because the lodge isn’t fenced, don’t be surprised if an elephant strolls by during dessert.

No big deal. Just another Tuesday in the bush.
