Itinerary
DAY 1:
Arrive at Victoria Falls Airport where you will be met by our shuttle bus for your road transfer to Halfway House (2.5 hours).
You will be collected from Halfway House by one of our Bomani 4 x 4 game drive vehicles for your transfer into Bomani Tented Lodge (1.5 hours).
Settle into your tent and then have sundowners and canapés by the Pan.
Later enjoy a 3 course supper out under the stars.
DAY 2:
Early morning game drive and walk in Hwange National Park’s acacia forests surrounding Ngamo Plains.
Return to Bomani for brunch and either a siesta or an hour or two in the blind over the waterhole.
Afternoon game drive followed by sundowners and snacks at Major Pan.
Night drive back to the lodge for showers then cocktails and snacks around the campfire with a 3 course dinner to follow in the main lodge area.
DAY 3:
Early morning all day trip into the park on our one of a kind ‘pump run’, with a picnic and siesta under the trees at Mfagazaan Pan.
Imvelo’s trademark pump runs combine game viewing in remote areas of the park with practical hands-on conservation. Guests can assist their guide with day-to-day maintenance at the borehole pumps which are the heartbeat of Hwange National Park and its wildlife.
Leisurely afternoon game drive back to the lodge going from pan to pan, weaving our way between the throngs of jostling elephant that come pouring in for the fresh water. It makes for a fun, memorable and extremely rewarding day.
Freshen up and then refreshments around the campfire and supper in the main lodge area.
DAY 4:
Morning village visit and school tour at Ngamo Village and a tour of the Imvelo Community projects.
Return to the lodge for breakfast and then catch your road transfer to Halfway House (1.5 hours).
Continue on by road to Gorges Lodge (2.5 hrs) with a packed lunch for the journey.
Settle into Gorges and then enjoy the evening overlooking the gorge with a delicious supper in the main lodge dining room.
DAY 5:
After breakfast catch the lodge shuttle and spend the morning in Victoria Falls town. Have lunch in town (at guest’s own expense) and then take the late afternoon shuttle back to Gorges Lodge to enjoy the evening with sundowners overlooking the gorge and listening to the pounding Zambezi bellow.
Later enjoy a 3 course dinner in the garden under the stars.
DAY 6:
After your morning tea or coffee on your private veranda enjoy a late breakfast and a leisurely morning in the lodge grounds. The shuttle will take you to the airport for your departing flight.
