lodge
Thorntree River Lodge
Thorntree River Lodge is located in the Livingstone area.
The lodge is centred on a funky main building, leading out to a large swimming pool and jetty.
Guest accommodation is in twelve rather glamorous tented Suites. Two pairs can be combined to make Family Suites.
Activities include visits to the Victoria Falls, vehicle safari, motorboat safari, canoe safari and white-water rafting.
A visit to the falls themselves is surprisingly interesting and impressive.
Scenic flights over the falls can be done by helicopter, light aircraft or micro-light.
The are various high adrenaline options for bungee jumping, gorge swinging and zip-lining.
The gorge below the falls is one of the best locations in the world for white-water rafting.
Motorboat safari on the languid river above the falls can be surprisingly good for wildlife.
This is also a great location for canoeing, with the "Smoke that Thunders" beyond.
Some modest vehicle safari is available in various reserves in the area.
Walking safari is also possible in some locations.
South Luangwa Central
The central sector of South Luangwa is the most accessible and has the most accessible wildlife, especially during the Nov-May green season, but is also the most busy, with larger lodges and higher vehicle densities.
