Our 2 night stay at Batoka Zambezi Sands was truly wonderful. We honestly did not ever want to leave! The lodge and tented suites are absolutely beautiful, as are the views of the Zambezi river and the surroundings. The staff were all so warm, welcoming and attentive. Every lunch and dinner was also incredible. We had 3 fantastic game drives with our very friendly and knowledgable guide, and a little nature walk to see the hippos on our last morning as we were leaving early. Highly recommend Batoka and really hope to return!
