Day- Wise Itinerary
Day 1 - 4 | Lower Zambezi National Park
Begin where the Zambezi runs wild and untamed. At Lolebezi, your glass-fronted suite with a private plunge pool overlooks a secluded stretch of river, alive with elephant crossings and the calls of fish eagles. Days unfold in the wild — tracking leopards through winterthorn forests, drifting past hippos by canoe, or casting for tigerfish in quiet channels. Evenings bring lantern-lit dinners on open decks, fine wines, and the gentle sounds of the African bush.
Day 5 - 7 | South Luangwa National Park
From Chichele’s hilltop lodge, the valley stretches endlessly beneath you. Head out in open jeeps or walk with expert guides — this is big game country, home to lion prides, leopards, and wild dogs in their prime hunting grounds. Between safaris, slow down. Sip afternoon tea on the veranda, watch the sun pour golden light across the plains, and soak in the lodge’s old-world charm. Here, every moment feels like stepping into a living story.
Days 7 - 9 | Victoria Falls
End your journey at one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Wander through misty rainforest trails as the roar of Victoria Falls echoes around you, drift along the Zambezi at sunset, or soar above the gorge on a private helicopter flight. From your riverside retreat, raise a glass to golden evenings and the unforgettable days that led you here.
