Experience a comfortable and leisurely stay on the shores of Lake Kariba and inside Matusadona National Park. Close access to both lakeside activities and Zimbabwe safari game drives offer guests 'the best of both worlds' and a comfortable lodge to retreat to at the end of the day. Enjoy guided game drives, safari walks or rhino-tracking in the park, or opt to spend time on the lake canoeing or enjoying catch-and-release fishing.
The main lodge offers a pool, bar, battery-charging facilities, and a restaurant with communal dining. A lounge area allows for relaxing at the end of the day, and babysitting services are available for families traveling with younger children.
Luxury Tents - Styled with comfort in mind, these tents use local rustic woods and African decor including leatherwork and weaving to create a truly inspiring backdrop for your safari experience. An under-the-stars outdoor shower and bath also offer you a breathtaking vantage for relaxing. All tents are 'mosquito-proofed' and include a private verandah with vistas to the lake.
Family Tent - Two family tents are available which consist of two luxury tents adjoined by a passageway. An ensuite bathroom is available off each tent with the outdoor bathroom located off the main tent.
Game Drive - Enjoy a leisurely drive in open safari vehicles as you explore the wildlife seen in the area. A professional and experienced guide accompanies you to help you maximize the experience in Matusadona National Park.
Game Walks - Set out with a guide to observe the wildlife in the region from a different vantage point. A guide accompanies you to help spot wildlife and share any safety information you may need during your Matusadona adventure.
Birdwatching - Climb on to the pontoon boats with a guide and explore the waters of Lake Kariba. Birdlife is prolific here and elephants and antelope wander in great numbers here.
Fishing - Lake Kariba is a fisherman's paradise. Explore the water with a guide on a pontoon boat and try your hand reeling in the renowned Tiger Fish. Bream fishing is also popular here and often a daily catch!
The trip might have been the absolute best of our lifetime (thus far). We particularly want to commend our guide Peter in the Guilin area-he was so incredibly attentive, energetic, enthusiastic-and absolutely dedicated to ensuring that our meals were 100% vegetarian.

The holiday of a lifetime. The company is Alaksa-owned and thhat makes a big difference to the experineces you get i.e. meet genuine First Nations tribes people. The amount of wildlife was beyond my expectation, and seeing everything on sucha small, intimate boat made it even more spoecial and unique.

It was an outstanding, up-close, educational vacation of nature, culture, history, animals and geology! It was everything they promised! Binoculars were plentiful on the boat, but I'm glad I brought my own. Food was excellent. Rooms had black-out shades. Pack/wear multiple layers of clothing (I carried a small backpack when off the ship). Crew were delightful and very accommodating! Remember to jump FEET FIRST first when taking the optional polar plunge! Spend as much time outdoors as you are able and ENJOY!!!

Excellent travel advice and service
This is my second experience working with Adventure Life. I’m sold. Jess Heuermann is an experienced traveler and provides a lot of useful information when planning a trip. These are the questions I like to ask at the outset - What’s it like to go here, there, what would you suggest, what do people report, can we add any additional side trips? Jess took the time to answer my questions and seek additional information to share with me. Petchie Colina is outstanding in helping with travel logistics and final preparations. Adventure Life has excellent guides and offers private guides and small group adventures. We enjoyed the opportunity to talk with the guides and drivers to learn more about their countries, cultures and histories. A highlight was having the guides pick local restaurants where we could share meals together. Highly recommend.

Our six-day tour in Iceland went smoothly with one exception. We had asked for two rooms each night. Somehow we were booked with one room with three beds. It could not be fixed at the first hotel in Reykjavik because the hotel was fully booked. Once informed of the problem, however, Adventure Life rebooked for two rooms for the remainder of the trip. As an 85-year-old traveler, I appreciated that one could participate at different physical levels at many of the stops. Iceland is a great place to visit but on the expensive side.
