Visit the South Luangwa National Park, marking the end of the Great Rift Valley. This national park is one of the last unspoiled wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. Continue on to Victoria Falls and then Chobe National Park for a perfect nature escape. The Chobe Game Lodge is the ideal location to experience the area as it is the only lodge within the park boundaries.
The South Luangwa National Park, also known as The Luangwa Valley marks the end of the Great Rift Valley, is one of the last unspoiled wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. It covers an area of over 9000 sq. km. through which the meandering Luangwa River runs. Victoria Falls, also known as “Mosi oa-Tunya” (“the smoke that thunders”), is positioned almost exactly half way along the mighty Zambezi River’s 2700 km journey from its source to the sea. Here the river plunges headlong into a 100m vertical chasm spanning the full one-and-a-half kilometer width of the river, creating the biggest curtain of falling water in the world and also one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Only a one hour drive from Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park serves as a perfect nature getaway when visiting this region, or combines easily with other lodges within the expanse of Botswana’s additional natural areas. Relish in the luxurious comfort of the Chobe Game Lodge, while taking part in guided 4×4 game drives and romantic sunset cruises along the Chobe Riverfront. The Chobe Game Lodge is the most ideal location to experience the area, as it is the only lodge within the park boundaries.

You will be exposed to the animals of the African wilderness, as the ox bow lagoons, woodland and plains of the South Luangwa National Park hosts huge concentrations of game including elephant, buffalo, leopard, lion, giraffe, hippo, and over 400 species of birds, and Victoria Falls offers an incredible range of wildlife, as well as the incredible natural waterfalls.
