Old Drift Lodge sits on the bank of the huge Zambezi River above the magnificent Victoria Falls World Heritage Site. One of our top hotels in Victoria Falls, and an extraordinary tented camp reflecting what Zimbabwe means to travellers into Africa.
All accommodation sits prettily on the shores of the river, within the astounding Zambezi National Park and all views offer wilderness vistas with plenty of rewarding game viewing.
Old Drift Lodge hides in a garden a mere 7 km from Vic Falls and guests can game view from their private decks – elephants, buffalo, sable, eland, zebra, giraffe, waterbuck, and other species. The luxury tented accommodation at Old Drift includes 10 double suites and 4 family suites all beautifully decorated and kitted out for an elegant holiday in Zimbabwe.
Old Drift Lodge is an eco-lodge with an old history. Reminiscent of that colonial safari era where classic furniture and service entertained all guests and now it is the same.

At Old Drift Lodge, privacy is key and fun in the sun seeing the wildlife is number one – game drives, walks, dinners under the stars and then excursions into the Victoria Falls village to enjoy the many tourist attractions.

My husband and I just got back from our honeymoon put together with so much care by Rushaan at Voyage2africa. Wow I don’t know where to start as everything exceeded our expectations! First of all Rushaan is super patient and her expertise in Africa is incredible – she reworked our trip over and over again until we were happy and everything she planned made so much sense once we were travelling and she met our brief spot on. Our standouts were Cape Town, Rushann even booked restaurants for us, and Old Drift at Victoria Falls as we loved being right on the river there and the helicopter flight was something I will never forget. Ending at Azura was amazing. Ronaldo looked after us so well what a spoil. We have already told friends wanting to do an African honeymoon about you, I am sure they will be in touch!
