Hello to you all, and welcome to sunny and colourful September. September opens the final quarter of the year and as always the busiest one. As you will see the Events calendar is jam-packed with exciting things to look forward to and we know you will definitely find something you will love.
Our trip began at Harare Domestic Airport, where we boarded the Kuva Air Flight to Victoria Falls. The flight took approx. 1hr 15 mins, was comfortable and we were served a light pastry snack accompanied by a soft drink. On arrival at Victoria Falls airport, we were met by the Sian Simba team who had 3 open safari vehicles waiting for us to transport us to the lodge which was approx. 35kms from Victoria Falls Town.
I believe no Victoria Falls trip is complete without going on a river cruise. There is something incredibly relaxing about being on the water and being surrounded by all that beauty. On a recent trip to the resort town, we had the pleasure of sampling a sunset cruise aboard the Zambezi Explorer. The Zambezi Explorer is under the Pure Africa stable; it is one of three fine vessels on which they are offering leisure experiences on the Zambezi.
It was 5 pm and we were headed toward the Whovi Wild Area exit and back to the campsite, we were to sleep in. Whovi is part of the Matopo Hills National Park in Zimbabwe’s Matebeleland province. There, in a slashed fire-break with the golds of those perfect last hours of daylight flashing liquid-white on their black backs were a calf and cow. White rhino. Casey who had spotted the pair laughed, “well here we go again, more of that picture book stuff”
528 I Victoria Falls is a family-run Bed and Breakfast located in Vic Falls. We were privileged to visit earlier this month to get a first-hand impression of the lodge. It is just a short drive from the heart of Victoria Falls, within easy reach of shopping facilities and other amenities. We were given a warm welcome by the hosts' Paul and Meredith, who are always around helping out with guest relations and making sure everyone is comfortable. We were given some homemade lemonade as a welcome beverage when we arrived.
Aberfoyle Lodge is situated on a tea estate in the Honde Valley approximately 400 kilometres from Harare on the Mutare/Juliusdale Road via Rusape Town. The main lodge has sixteen rooms, two are suites, namely Fish Eagle and Seedcracker they are spacious and overlook the golf course. All the other standard rooms overlook the forest and all have tea and coffee stations, hair dryers, and en suite bathrooms. In addition to this, they have a dormitory block which consists of 4 rooms with 4 bunk beds each sleeping capacity of thirty-two people in total. Then a short drive away is Hornbill House which can sleep 7 people making Abefoyle Lodge the ideal choice to celebrate a special occasion in our case a joint 50th celebration.

On our latest trip to the resort town of Victoria Falls, we had the pleasure of visiting the recently opened Palm River Hotel. Palm River is a 4-star facility that is a sister property to Ilala Lodge. We were completely impressed by the hotel itself and the experience as a whole. The hotel is a beautiful piece of architecture that uses a lot of local elements to come up with a property of world-class standards. There is a stunning walkway that leads to the entrance. The replica of the Victoria Falls Bridge is quite remarkable. The landscaping around the property is really top-notch as well. All the main areas have evocative artwork or statement pieces as foyer furniture.
The Bayete Collection is a group of luxury lodges located in Victoria Falls. The group has three comfortable guest lodges Bayete, Phezulu, and Nkosi. The three lodges are close together and have similar styles, although each lodge targets a different market and clientele.
