In Zambia, adventure is lived in the water, on land and in the air
Swimming in the “devil’s pool”, safari, flying over the Victoria Falls in a helicopter…
Victoria Falls is one of the most spectacular natural wonders in the world. They attract travelers not only for their majestic waterfalls, but also for the extraordinary water, land and air adventures offered on the Zambian side. All these unforgettable experiences, which the
Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara
offers to its guests to live in an exclusive way.
Sensations in very white water
The Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara and its neighbor, the AVANI Victoria Falls Resort, are the only resorts on the Zambian side of the Victoria Falls that offer water cab transfers along the Zambezi River. The opportunity for amateur photographers to observe the bathing of wild animals and to capture incredible shots… Before embarking on other more sporting adventures!
The highlight of a Victoria Falls tour, Devil’s Pool is an extremely spectacular natural overflow “pool” located right on the edge of the Falls. Accessible from mid-August to mid-January, before the summer rains swell the river, this pool perched above a tumultuous waterfall of nearly 110 meters promises the most adventurous travelers a thrilling swim.
The tumultuous rapids of the Batoka Gorge are almost as fast-paced and provide a great playground for rafting and jet boating under the guidance of experienced river guides.
The Zambezi River also lends itself to more peaceful boat safaris. The opportunity to observe many birds during a pleasant navigation in the middle of nature, on board of boats specially designed to pass the rapids comfortably and safely, but also to cross the shallowest waters.
The wilderness from the sky
Boarding a microlight allows you to get up close to the falls, feel the mist and admire the splendor, before continuing over Long Island, Palm Island, Kakunka and Kandahar, and flying over Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. A prodigious spectacle, contemplated with the eyes of a bird…
For guests of the Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara, the aerial adventure is also experienced from a wide-open Huey helicopter, flying low over the African bush, the spectacular Batoka Gorge and the monumental Victoria Falls. A memorable flight which, whatever the level of the river, can be summed up in one word: breathtaking.
Horseback safari along the Zambezi River
The Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara offers horseback riding safaris along the Zambezi River and through the surrounding forest to see African wildlife up close. The 4×4 safaris allow you to venture into the heart of the wildlife and the vast plains in the company of experienced guides, encountering many wild animals including the famous big five: lions, elephants, rhinos, buffalos and leopards. A full day trip to the nearby Chobe National Park in Botswana is an unforgettable experience for all animal lovers.
The resort also offers guests free unlimited access to Victoria Falls, just a 10-minute walk away, with a private entrance from the resort to marvel at “The Smoke that Thunders” as the powerful waters cast a cloudy spray while creating incomparable rainbows, whose iridescent reflections seem to rise above the bush.
After such emotions, the days usually end with a tasty cocktail enjoyed in front of the setting sun, from the terrace of the Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara.
The place offers an ideal point of view to enjoy the magic of the twilight at the top of the falls, but also zebras and other impalas come to enjoy the peaceful gardens of the hotel…
