Victoria Falls Safari Lodge

 

Stop Rating:   

 Rooms: 50-100

The Victoria Falls Safari Lodge has been described as one of the ten best kept secrets in the world. Read the guest comments on the website to find out why! In 2000 the Lodge received an Award for Outstanding Environmental Performance. The lodge was assessed on its environmental performance against each of the 13 Agenda areas defined for the tourism industry by the World Travel & Tourism Council, World Tourism Organisation and the Earth Council. These include: waste minimisation, re-use and recycling, energy efficiency, land-use planning and management, involving staff, customers and communities in environmental issues, design of environmentally sensitive products and environmentally sensitive purchasing policy. Dave Glynn, the Safari Lodge's developer, said: "We are absolutely delighted with the award. The Victoria Falls Safari Lodge has led with many simple but benchmark conservation concepts from its inception. It is wonderful to have them recognised. Hopefully this will raise awareness that it is not difficult to care for your surroundings."
