What does fully inclusive mean at Zambezi Dusk?
Meals using local ingredients, selected drinks, airport transfers, two guided boat safaris a day from the lodge and two daily activities from the guided experiences list. Stays of two nights or more include one spa treatment.
Which activities cost extra?
Activities run by partner operators, such as Devil's Pool, the bungee jump, rafting, tiger fishing, the rhino walk and the Chobe day trip, are arranged by the lodge but not all are included. Ask which are covered for your dates.
How do I pay?
Bookings are confirmed on 100% prepayment within three days of booking. In Livingstone, US dollars and Zambian kwacha are widely accepted; cards can be limited away from town.
How far is Victoria Falls?
About 30 minutes by road. The lodge is upstream of the Falls on Kazungula Road, Livingstone.
Are airport transfers included?
Yes, transfers to and from Livingstone airport are included. If you are arriving by road from Zimbabwe or Botswana, agree the pickup and any cost with the lodge before you travel.
Is there malaria at the lodge?
Livingstone is in a malaria area. Every room has a mosquito net and repellent, but you should ask a travel clinic about antimalarials well before you travel.
When is the best time to visit?
It depends on what you want. The Falls are fullest from about March to May, game viewing and rafting are best in the dry months from about July to November, and Devil's Pool usually opens from mid-August.
Can we bring children?
Families are welcome to enquire. Some partner activities have minimum ages, often 12 to 15, so tell the lodge your children's ages and it will say what suits them.
Can we book the whole lodge or the villa for a group?
Ask the lodge. It is small, with safari tents, Superior Zambezi Chalets and the villa, so groups can often take the villa or several rooms together depending on dates.
