THE RIVER CLUB - LIVINGSTONE,
ZAMBIA
The River Club is situated on the Zambian side of
the Zambezi River, 18 kilometres upstream from Victoria Falls. It faces
westward into the sunset and onto the Zambezi National Park on the opposite
side of the river. The River Club is set among the lush riverine vegetation
and the camp has a distinct Edwardian flavour. 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. The River Club is operated
by Wilderness Safaris.

Ten luxury thatched chalets
accommodate a maximum of 20 people. The rooms overlook the Zambezi River,
and have en-suite facilities including a bath, shower, toilet and basin.
Two honeymoon suites are available. All the rooms have fans. The main
house comprises the dining room, lounge and pub area, and has an interesting
library. The swimming pool has a magnificent view over the river for
those who wish to relax in the sun. Guests may stay here either under
an all-inclusive rate, or on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis.
Activities
The Victoria falls is one
of the seven "Wonders of the World" and is arguably the greatest
waterfall anywhere. Daily excursions to the Falls are a highlight and
boating trips to the Zambezi River's islands provide wonderful activities.
Fishing and sundowner trips are offered, as are daily visits to the Mosi-Oa-Tunya
National Park for White Rhino and other game. Trips to the Livingstone
and Railway Museums and a nearby African village are also offered. Other
activities available at extra cost include: white water rafting, river
surfing, bungi jumping, abseiling, parachuting, microlight and helicopter
flights over the Falls, horse riding, clay pigeon shooting and canoeing.
Wildlife
Although The River Club is not a game lodge, the
Zambezi National Park is located just across the river, and Lion calls
can often be heard at night. Rich birdlife is found in the area. Hippo
are regularly sighted (and heard) along the river's edge. Fishing is good,
with Tiger fishing featuring prominently in the warmer months. Birding
in and around the lodge is superb.
The Owner
Peter
Jones is the owner of The River Club - he lives at River Club. He is
a Zambian who designed and built the lodge.
