ZIMBABWE

From Victoria Falls it will take you about 8 hours to drive to Kariba where Ilala Lodge recommends the Caribbea Bay Hotel and resort. This is the most luxurious hotel in Kariba on the riviera of Southern Africa.
If you decided to drive south Ilala Lodge recommends the Lodge at the Ancient City near the Great Zimbabwe Monument from where you can see the Zimbabwe Ruins.
NAMIBIA
From Ilala Lodge you can travel west to the Botswana border and then further to the Namibian border and the Caprivi strip. If you are on a family holiday spend a few nights at Ngepi camp on the banks of the Kavango or Okavango River. Your next stop will most likely be Etosha National Park where you can choose between accommodation such as hotels, self-catering, lodges and traditional rest camps.
In sharp contrast to the abundance of water at Victoria Falls, Sossusvlei is in the Namib Desert. Here are some of the world's highest sandunes. Sossusvlei Desert Camp is at Sesriem at the entrance to the Sossusvlei park. Desert Camp offers luxury self-catering (self-contained) accommodation.
Ilala Lodge strongly recommends the Ai-Ais Resort near the Fish river Canyon in the south of Namibia.
