\n\t\t\tAn island within a sanctuary\n\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t

Covering an area of 56 000 ha this game reserve starts at the world renowned Victoria Falls National Park and runs along the Zambezi River and inland. Game drives are offered through this scenically beautiful national park. Start your day by gliding across the Zambezi River to the mainland where your safari vehicle will be waiting to take you on an early morning game drive in the Zambezi National Park – which is home to large herds of elephant and buffalo and a large resident pride of lion, large groups of hyena, giraffe and numerous antelope species and resident leopards. The game drives are approximately 4 hours long and include a coffee or sundowner stop..<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBook Now\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDownload Animal List\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t
