Stanley & Livingstone Boutique Hotel

A beautiful old boutique property in a private game reserve area adjacent to the Zambezi, this luxury hotel/lodge, the Stanley & Livingstone Boutique Hotel, is a place to relax while visiting Victoria Falls. Sit and watch the buffalo or zebras wander up to the water-hole while sipping a cold drink and thinking about the upcoming time in the Bush or contemplating your just finished adventure on safari.

The Stanley & Livingstone Boutique Hotel is a gem of a bespoke property. This old Vic Falls favourite has had a complete back-to-the-stud renovation, having recently been taken over by the More Group, who have breathed new life into this lovely property. The main areas are delightful, open-plan, modern with colonial /classic touches, and floor-to-ceiling doors that open to view the natural surroundings and sunset. Beautiful fireplaces are lit during the cooler evenings for a cozy, romantic feel.

With just sixteen individually decorated, huge, open-plan suites, you are sure never to feel crowded, be in peace, and be pampered. Each suite has a beautiful, well-appointed bathroom with a slipper bath, separate shower, enormous, canopied bed, and modern design while retaining a colonial charm. Each overlooks the reserve and the water hole. The property's gorgeous restaurant, 1871, is candle-lit and relaxed, serving a broad mix of international and local dishes.

Only a short ride from Victoria Falls International Airport. We will arrange transfers, so you'll be relaxing by the pool in no time. Here Victoria Falls is yours to explore. The bonus here is we can book the accommodation on a bed and breakfast basis so that you can do as much, or as little, as you wish. Various activities are available, from a private guided tour of the Falls, tea at the grand Dame, the Victoria Falls Hotel, local game drives, and adrenal activities, such as white-water rafting. Our 'must-do' activities include a luxury sunset cruise on the upper Zambezi River, a helicopter flight over the falls, and a hop across the Border to go to Livingstone Island, where you can stand atop the Falls, which is an unforgettable experience.

This was our 4th trip to Africa and by far the best ever. All the details were properly handled; we had not flight problems or delays and the service provided by Safari Guru was outstanding. I would recommend them, and have to friends and family. We will be going back to Africa with the outstanding Staff of Safari Guru.

We recently returned from Kenya, had a fabulous safari designed by Deon de Villiers of Safari Guru. We had some wonderful sightings and the whole thing went without a single hiccup. The guides were excellent. Deon was so helpful in allowing us to reschedule several times due to COVID restrictions preventing travel. We visited Sirikoi in the Lewa Conservancy and Serian Ngare, Serian Nkorombo and Mara Plains at Masai Mara, each place offering a different experience, each special in its own way. Loved the rhinocerous at Lewa, giraffe giving birth at Ngare, hippopotamus at Nkorombo and cats at Mara Plains, and so so much more. We highly recommend Deon and the Safari Guru team.

We finally got to take our Kenya/Rwanda adventure with Safari Guru post pandemic. Our trip was a fantastic experience that immersed us in Africa. The holiday went as planned, everything was organised so we were gently steered from place to place, which we enjoyed as we found we weren't "travel fit" after sitting on sidelines for two years! Our lodges in Kenya were beautiful, nice and small, felt like you were part of a family, rather than a customer! Rwanda was a highlight, an amazing country with a shocking past that is moving forward beautifully. The advice from Deon to do two gorilla walks was perfect. Our first day we hiked in to mountain and when we got there the heavens opened and it didn't stop! The scouts found 6 gorillas for us to glimpse as they were hiding from rain too! We trekked down in the mud, rivers of water ending up bedraggled! It was a great experience but the next day was perfect! Beautiful blue skies, trekked up and gorillas were everywhere, sunning themselves and eating vigorously. Was awesome being so close and they couldn't care less! Would highly recommend safari Guru, they planned us a perfect holiday and are easy to contact with queries and answer promptly. Travelling on our own was great as each place we stayed, there were like travellers from around the world to socialise with. Thanks Deon and Ashley

I was completely blown away with the service I received from Safari Guru. We had a most marvellous holiday in South Africa, Botswana and Namibia. Everything went extremely well and the Wilderness team were excellent in looking after us at each of their safari camps. Well done to Deon and Ashley, Morag Cotsell

Had an amazing experience working with Deon and Safari Guru. My wife and I went into this trip thinking of it as a once in a lifetime experience. Because of our experience we have another trip in mind to bring our children so they can have the same amazing experience that we had. Thank you Deon! We look forward to seeing you again!

Safari Guru organized us an amazing journey in Namibia for our wedding anniversary; it will be long lasting and marvelous memories for years! We also greatly appreciated the dedication and support of Safari Guru's team during these challenging times of the Covid pandemic as they had to re-arrange 2 times our trip initially planned for 2020. Thanks and kudos to Deon and all at Safari Guru!

Botswana! What an incredible destination as we begin to travel again. This is a trip of a lifetime. The game drives were exhilarating, the people are friendly, the food fantastic, and the accommodations are meant to spoil you. Our trip was beautifully planned and executed by Deon De Villiers and his team at Safari Guru. They have been to every camp they recommend and tailor your safari experience to you. What else could you ask for! We will travel with them again and highly recommend Safari Guru to plan your next trip!
