Upon your arrival at Victoria Falls Airport, you will be met by a South Africa 365 representative and transferred by road over the short distance to Ilala Lodge, your base for the duration of your Victoria Falls holiday. 

Ilala Lodge offers luxurious accommodation in a gracious and secluded ambience. The lodge is built on the closest site to Victoria Falls and you’ll be able to hear the sound of the water crashing down as you lie in your bed at night.

Adrenalin junkies can enjoy a wide variety of adrenalin pumping activities including helicopter flips, micro lighting, abseiling, bungee jumping and elephant back safaris. For those seeking a calmer Victoria Falls experience, activities such as a river cruise on the Zambezi, Livingstone Museum visits and a cultural tour to Mkuni Village is also available.
