Gorges Camp and Little Gorges

Gorges Camp and Little Gorges lie at the edge of the Batoka Gorge, just a 30-minute drive from Victoria Falls town. Here, guests can enjoy a relaxing stay, surrounded by the ground’s beautiful landscaped garden and the exquisite views of the Batoka Gorge which can be admired from your private verandah, or from the cooling waters of the swimming pool. The two camps are positioned side-by-side, overlooking the rushing waters of the Zambezi River as it makes its way to the basaltic plateau of Victoria Falls. Gorges Camp and Little Gorges enjoy a tranquil atmosphere away from the vibrant Victoria Falls town, meaning that guests can enjoy a soothing and secluded environment with stunning views, but the town is still easy to access for exciting activities such as white water rafting and tours of the local area. Gorges Camp offers a luxurious experience, where guests can stay in a comfortable thatched chalet with private balconies, whereas Little Gorge gives guests a more authentic bush camping experience where you can get close to nature and witness the thrills of safari up close.

The Elephant Camp

The Elephant Camp rests within a private concession, offering stunning views of the rainbow spray from Victoria Falls from its location between the Masuwe River and the Zambezi gorges. The main deck overlooks the cavernous Batoka Gorge, with the ‘Smoke That Thunders’ resting lightly on the horizon.

Located just twenty minutes from the world’s largest waterfall, The Elephant Camp allows guests to enjoy both the fascinating wildlife of the African bush, the tranquillity of the Zambezi’s vast floodplains, and the unique and exciting Victoria Falls.

The Lodge provides guests with an authentic safari experience within a luxurious space, with a sunken fire pit, boma dining area, and private plunge pools. Guests can engage with nature and even visit the elephants at the Elephant Sanctuary and Orphanage and meet the elephants who are currently rehabilitating and being cared for before their release back into the wild.

The Elephant Camp West

The Elephant Camp West is both a stand-alone safari camp, and an extension of the main Elephant Camp, which is designed to cater for smaller groups and families. The camp consists of just four luxury tented suites, all of which have their own private deck and plunge pools that are positioned perfectly on a ridge that overlooks the Smoke that Thunders – the perpetual mist that hangs over the Victoria Falls Rainforest – and offering panoramic views of the wilderness and Zambezi Gorges.

Located just twenty minutes from the world’s largest waterfall, The Elephant Camp West allows guests to enjoy both the fascinating wildlife of the African bush, the tranquillity of the Zambezi’s vast floodplains, and the unique and exciting Victoria Falls. The camp features a comfortable yet elegant lounge area with a bar where guests can take in the extraordinary sweeping views of the concession.

The Elephant Camp West is an eco-conscious camp, and during its construction, bush clearing was kept to a minimum to reduce the impact on the environment and surrounding landscape. Guests can also engage with nature and visit the elephants at the Elephant Sanctuary and Orphanage and meet the elephants who are currently rehabilitating and being cared for before their release back into the wild.
