Explore the epic wildlife of Africa

Wildlife is right outside your door in Zambia at Avani Victoria Falls Resort. Located inside the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, you’ll find yourself surrounded by giraffes, zebras, vervet monkeys, baboons and more. Take a stroll around the falls or hit the park trails, and you’re bound to spot wild animals wherever you go. Open the doors to your room, and you’ll be greeted by zebras and giraffes on the regular – it’s like having your very own safari right at the resort.

But there’s more to Zambia than its wildlife. Get your heart racing with thrilling adventures like white-water rafting in the Zambezi River, or visit the historic Livingstone Island and swim at what feels like the edge of the world in the Devil’s Pool. If you're feeling extra, try the wild Batoka Gorge swing, jet boating, quad biking, or even a fishing trip. Whatever your mood, Zambia is the ultimate destination for enjoying the wild outdoors.

Outside of Zambia, wildlife doesn't get much better than Botswana. Let Avani Gaborone be your gateway to incredible destinations such as the Okavango Delta and Central Kalahari Game Reserve. With elephants, lions, giraffes, and over 450 bird species, your safari dreams are about to come true. Thanks to Botswana’s focus on conservation and fewer tourists, you’ll experience animals in their natural element, whether it’s watching lions hunt or hearing hippos grunting from afar.
