The River Club is situated on the Zambian side of the Zambezi River, 18 kilometres upstream from Victoria Falls. The lodge is based around a renovated 1940s’ farmhouse which now forms The River Club’s main area, and has a distinctly colonial feel to it. It faces westward into the sunset and onto the Zambezi National Park on the opposite side of the river. It’s a small, smart lodge at which guests usually stay for 2-3 nights when visiting the Falls. The River Club is set amongst the lush riverine vegetation. The camp has a distinct Edwardian flavour with its manicured lawns on the banks of the swift-flowing Zambezi River where hippo and crocodile float which provide a pleasing mix of Africa. Guests here can enjoy the sights and sounds of Victoria Falls and the Zambezi River in a peaceful and tranquil setting away from the crowds, and spend the days relaxing at the lodge or enjoying the numerous activities on offer.
