Victoria Falls (another jewel in Africa’s crown) is home to the world’s largest waterfall spanning nearly 2 kilometres and dropping about 108 metres. This UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site is one of the regions great attractions.

Victoria Falls Private Game Reserve was awarded custodianship of four black rhino in June 2006, becoming a designated rhino Intensive Protection Zone (IPZ). The programme has been a resounding success, and the thriving population on the reserve today has surprised even conservation experts. This is all thanks to the extraordinary effort and intelligence of the reserve’s highly specialised Anti-Poaching Unit.

In an effort to drive funding for this important function, and to bring visitors closer to these extraordinary animals, the Exclusive Black Rhino Conservation Experience is a very personal and unique view into the world of a pre-historic creature now fighting for its survival on this planet.

The Zambezi River is the fourth longest river in Africa. It flows through six countries on its journey from its source to the Indian Ocean, an amazing 2 700 km. This is one of few rivers in the world which remains pristine and largely unexplored. There is no better way to experience the essence of the great Zambezi than on the deck of a private river cruise passing pods of honking hippos at sunset.

“Scenes so lovely must have been gazed upon by angels in their flight” (David Livingstone). Take to the skies to bear witness to the spectre of the Victoria Falls. Continue downstream over the Batoka Gorge to view the natural dramatic beauty of the Zambezi River as it carves its way through steep cliffs. Return over the upper Zambezi River & the National Park, where you see yourself shadowed above the herds.

We have chosen Stanley & Livingstone Boutique Hotel as the BLACK@ Guest’s home while in Victoria Falls. Situated on a private nature reserve with only 16 rooms, this is a contemporary take on classic Africa where everybody makes it their business to knows what makes their guests smile.
