What an incredible experience it was to stay in Zambezi National Park, right alongside the majestic Zambezi River! You’re guaranteed to encounter wildlife—sometimes right in your own backyard. The lodge was beautifully maintained, and the entire staff was exceptionally accommodating, going out of their way to ensure every guest felt well taken care of. It was a perfect blend of adventure and comfort.

I think what truly made this holiday unforgettable is the staff and hospitality of this lodge. The comfort is next level and the way you are treated is beyond anything I have experienced in the world. And I have travelled extensively. The Zimbabwean people are simply the best. The rooms are luxurious. The food is very good. Best Kudu Carpaccio I have had. Thank you chef. As a South African I know Southern African wildlife well. Our ranger Jeremiah was the most knowledgable person I have met. He is brilliant!!! What I loved is that game drives are exclusive... we did not feel like it was a commercial safari experience. Private, quiet and everything is a surprise. Just as it should be in nature. Sometimes you see wildlife and sometimes you don't. Trip to the Vic Falls very memorable and beautiful. We definitely will be back and recommend to everyone. Thank you to the amazing people!! We are sad to leave.

What an amazing place. Had a tented suite along the river with access for the wildlife. Accommodation was luxurious, staff could not do enough to help and all inclusive meals excellent. Alongside this were the daily game drives and cruises which were very well done and where we saw lots of wild animals. A definite 5 star experience and one we will treasure forever.

Super Lodge mitten im Zambezi Nationalpark. Sehr freundliches und kompetentes Personal, erstklassige Safaries zu Land und zu Wasser, sehr gutes und abwechslungreiches Essen, große, saubere und kompfortable gut ausgestattete Unterkunft für erstklassige Entspannung. Das einzige negative ist, dass die Zeit zu schnell vergeht und der Urlaub eindeutig zu kurz ist ;-).

Had the great fortune to stay at Old Drift Lodge. The location is magnificent, with each cabin being located very privately by the water, with a deck and pool in front of each one.. Abundance of wildlife wandering around the property from elephants to Hippos, warthogs, antelope, birds.many opportunities to go on a boat on the Zambezi viewing numerous bird species, crocs and hippos. Food is excellent, with great choices and all dietary requests are met. Short drive from the magnificent Victoria Falla.

Our group of three couple had an amazing stay here. Situated right on the banks of the Zambezi river, nestled among wild life, and excellent room with exceptional service! Going to tell all our friends who visit Africa to stay here!! This really was a gem!

I enthusiastically endorse every other positive review of Old Drift Lodge. Our stay at Old Drift far exceeded our expectations. Being transported across the Zambezi river to the camp by boat was a wonderful way to start our visit. And we couldn’t have felt more welcomed upon our arrival. Everyone was so accommodating and everything was perfect. Our guide, Life, is mind-blowingly knowledgeable about everything in the area and is an excellent teacher. He is also a lot of fun. Our morning and afternoon excursions were all fantastic. Our tent was magnificent. Thank you for helping us to have the trip of a lifetime, and to gain a deeper respect and appreciation of African wildlife. We are spreading the word to our friends and family about Old Drift Lodge!
