Matetsi Victoria Falls

Matetsi Victoria Falls offers uninterrupted panoramic views of the mighty Zambezi River in Zimbabwe, just 40 km upstream from the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Victoria Falls. Offering stunning river frontage and access to this spectacular waterway within driving distance of the worlds largest waterfall is only one of Matetsi's drawcards; with many other activities carried out on the 55 000 hectares of Matetsi Private Game Reserve.

Your private river frontage offers a land of giant baobabs and ancient acacias, red soil and burnished grasslands, with plentiful free-roaming wildlife – an exclusive, pristine wilderness offering big skies and adventure as far as the eye can see.

Matetsi Victoria Falls is an award-winning luxury nature retreat combining dramatic architectural design and luxurious interiors for the discerning traveller - together with the vibrancy of the Zimbabwean people Matetsi offers an unparalleled luxury safari experience.

Set beneath the African canopies of a lush riverine forest, Matetsi comprises two river-facing camps, each with nine suites - two of these are suitable for families. Space is abundant, and privacy is a given!

All guest suites are air-conditioned and come with luxurious king-size four-poster beds, handsome bathtubs, rain showers, both indoor and outdoor, as well as a private plunge pool. Each suite is perfectly appointed to capitalize on the lodge's 15km's private river frontage.

Matetsi Victoria Falls is a family-owned property, allowing a big-five luxury safari experience coupled with one of Africa's most sought after bucket-list destinations. A uniquely authentic and personal experience that embodies the hope and dynamism of this incredible country and its people.

Matetsi Victoria Falls combines well with other destinations within Zimbabwe, including, Hwange National Park and Mana Pools National Park, and Botswana by 45-minute road transfer to the Kasane Airport for quick and easy access to the Okavango Delta and its highly sought-after safari camps, the Chobe Linyanti wildlife reserve or the desolate Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.

Safari Guru recommends at least three nights at Matetsi to ensure two full days are available for travellers to experience the remarkable Victoria Falls, and to capture the uniqueness and serenity of this destination.
