The Elephant Camp has been rated one of the best luxury lodges in Zimbabwe, and is within close proximity to the Victoria Falls and the bustling tourist town. Set within the Victoria Falls National Park, The Elephant Camp overlooks the Zambezi Gorges with a magnificent view of the Victoria Falls spray.
The all-inclusive rate covers a wide range of activities, all meals and drinks, WiFi and transfers.
The Elephant Camp Main and Elephant Camp West are nestled on a ridge between the Masuwe River and the Zambezi gorges, giving guests an uninterrupted view of the breath-taking spray that swells above the Victoria Falls rainforest. Set against a backdrop of indigenous teak woodland, the imaginative use of eco-friendly canvas tents allows this unique camp to live in harmony with the surrounding environment.
The Elephant Camp West has been specifically designed to meet the needs of smaller groups and familieslooking for a more intimate and exclusive safari experience. Although The Elephant Camp West operates separately to the main camp, it embodies the same authenticity, luxury and environmentally sensitive premise.
The four luxury tented suites all have a dramatic view of the classic African landscape and the impressive cloud of mist that sits on top of the horizon above the Victoria Falls rainforest.
The spacious, “marquis-style” tents have their own private deck and personal plunge pools that are perched on a ridge with the ‘Mosi Oa Tunya’ (smoke that thunders) in view. They are fully equipped with air-conditioning, a tea and coffee station and a well-stocked mini bar, each of which are replenished daily. The bath-with-a-view and outside shower allow guests to fully absorb the wilderness experience while remaining protected from the elements.
The dining tent and main pool deck are detached from the main camp, ensuring a serene dining and relaxation time. The décor evokes a luxury safari ambience with rich colours, wooden artifacts and an open-air design. The campcan host eight guests in four stand-alone suites for the ultimate safari get-away.
