The Wallow Lodge - Intimate Boutique Safari Lodge at Victoria Falls

The Wallow Lodge is situated in a private game reserve, peacefully nestled in the heart of the Victoria Falls National Park.


The tented camp is set along the banks of the Masuwe River, surrounded by 4,500 acres of wilderness that stretches into the horizon, where a cloud of mist from the ‘Mosi-Oa-Tunya ’ commands the skyline.


Victoria Falls is a short twenty-minute transfer from the lodge, giving guests the freedom to tailor-make their experience and find a balance between the exclusivity of the bush and the excitement of Africa’s Adventure Capital.

An Elevated Safari Retreat

Nestled within a private game reserve in Victoria Falls National Park, The Wallow Lodge offers 16 luxurious canvas tented suites raised beneath ancient riverine trees. Each suite boasts a private balcony with sweeping views of the Masuwe River and the wilderness beyond—combining classic safari romance with modern comforts.

Seamless Comfort & Effortless Adventure

Just 20 minutes from Victoria Falls, this lodge balances serene exclusivity with the excitement of Africa’s Adventure Capital. Guests enjoy stress-free transfers, all-inclusive experiences, gourmet meals, and the freedom to book a range of thrilling Victoria Falls activities right at the lodge.

Luxurious Sustainability in the Wild

The Wallow Lodge goes beyond luxury—it’s built for meaningful immersion and minimal environmental impact. From solar power and eco-friendly decking to plastic-free essentials and active conservation initiatives, guests join a journey that uplifts local communities and safeguards wildlife.

Guest Reviews

We enjoyed the close (but not too close) proximity of the animals. The rooms were very nice with a great deck view. Our safari guide (Chris) and Falls guide (Caleb) we're very knowledgeable. We wished we had booked a longer stay there
Wendy L
We stayed here for 2 wonderful nights. The room was clean and roomy. The staff very friendly and helpful and the food excellent, with a wide variety of choices at breakfast as well as dinners. In sum, we loved our stay here and would stay again in a flash!
CarolineCanada
A unique place inside a sanctuary: where we found beauty, relaxation and excellent game drives. Victoria Falls is rightly named one of the 7 natural wonders and shouldn’t be missed. The lodge was a perfect place to access all the area had to offer.
