Riverside Romance at Old Drift Lodge Victoria Falls

Fall in Love with Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls… the very name of the town is romantic. It brings to mind waterfalls framed by the arch of a rainbow, night skies sequined with stars, and the gentle gait of wildlife roaming across the wilderness. Old Drift Lodge is the pearl at the centre of these natural gems, where a bygone era of safari romance and meditative luxury sets the tone for a marriage built on adventure, romance, and the finer things in life.

Soul-Soothing Luxury Suites

The luxury river-facing suites are an exclusive haven for each couple. Each suite at Old Drift Lodge includes an elegant lounge and a spacious bathroom. The four-poster bed takes pride of place at the centre in front of glass sliding doors, through which natural light streams into the room.

The outdoor claw-footed bath is the epitome of Valentine’s romance. With a flute of champagne and a tub full of bubbles, it is an essential Instagram-worthy picture for all guests at Old Drift Lodge. Spacious enough for two and positioned so that you feel the warm sun on your shoulders or see the moon reflected in the ripples of the river, this special spot is in itself the ultimate honeymoon experience.

The bath shares an expansive balcony with a private plunge pool, sitting area, sun loungers, and an outdoor shower. With a stocked mini-fridge, ice machine, and opulent finishing touches, it is tempting to spend the weekend cocooned in the sanctuary of the suites. However, all-inclusive gourmet meals and bucket-list activities will ignite a sense of adventure that is impossible to ignore.

Tailor-Make Your Perfect Day at Old Drift Lodge

Couples are invited to be the co-creators of their safari experience, venturing beyond the classic Victoria Falls itinerary to explore indigenous tree planting, champagne sunsets, a guided tour of the rainforest, and restorative river safaris.

Cocktails and canapés on the banks of the Zambezi are a highlight for everyone who visits Old Drift Lodge. The lodge team creates an oasis on the white sandy riverbank, where couples toast their marriage as sunset stains fill the sky before the day melts into dusk on the Zambezi River.
