ELEPHANT CAMP, VICTORIA FALLS
Victoria Falls is one of the Seven Wonders
of the World. David Livingstone, the Scottish
missionary and explorer, is believed to have
been the first European to view Victoria Falls
on 16 November 1855, from what is now
known as Livingstone Island, one of two land
masses in the middle of the river, immediately
upstream from the falls on the Zambian side.
Livingstone named his discovery in honour of
Queen Victoria of Britain, but the indigenous
Tonga name, Mosi-oa-Tunya — “The Smoke
That Thunders” — continues in common
usage as well. The World Heritage List officially
recognizes both names.
The nearby national park in Zambia is
named Mosi-oa-Tunya, whereas the national
park and town on the Zimbabwean shore are
both named Victoria Falls.
The stunning Elephant Camp was
completed in late 2010 making it the newest
safari style accommodation in Victoria Falls.
Situated on the Wild Horizons private wildlife
concession on a slightly elevated hillock,
it has been cleverly designed so that each
tent is private, yet each one having it’s own
spectacular view across unspoilt bushveld
towards the Zambezi gorges.
The main complex is spacious and
beautifully decorated with fine furnishing. The
enormous deck has a wonderful view right
across to the towering column of spray rising
from Victoria Falls.
The Elephant Camp is a luxury lodge which
caters for maximum of 18 guests only, in the
most gorgeous suites imaginable. Everything
is tastefully done and of the highest quality.
Your host Jonathan and his staff are ever
attentive and will ensure that your stay is an
unforgettable one. The guest book is already
full of glowing testimonies.
