Do you love elephants? Have you always wanted to touch or ride on the back of these magnificent creatures? Thorntree River Lodge is the home of the African Elephant and they roam the ground around the lodge freely.
Thorntree River Lodge. Situated a few kilometers upstream from the Victoria Falls, inside the Mosi Oa Tunya Reserve, Thorntree River Lodge is a superb retreat from the hustle and bustle of the Falls, while still being close enough to hear the rumbles of the great waterfall.
With 9 luxurious suites, all overlooking the Zambezi River, the Thorntree River Lodge is wonderful for upmarket travellers wanting good value for money. Decor is modern and romantic with emphasis on comfort. All the rooms have private patios overlooking the river.
The large gardens are perfect for romantic meals under the shade of indigenous trees, while elephants freely roam the estate.
A tour of the Victoria Falls is included in the rate, while cruises, canoeing, elephant back safaris or a walk with the lions, all at extra cost.
At the Victoria Falls themselves you can enjoy a swim in Devils Pool at the lip of the Falls, have a scenic heli flip or perhaps stare danger in the face and try the bungee jumping
