CORONAVIRUS FALLOUT:
We're not going to lie, the pandemic has brought us to our knees. But, our fantastic staff have pulled us through to this point. We are still here! Hopefully the pandemic is now behind us, and we have so much to catch up on with our furry friends, so please, come and join us on a great outdoor safari adventure in Livingstone. Our doors are open!
Bongwe Safaris was established in 2009 by Alec Cole and Jon Benbow and has, since then, grown from a mobile safari outfit consisting of a bus and game drive vehicle, to a safari camp and bar in Livingstone, Livingstone and Kafue safaris as well as various activities in Livingstone and the Victoria Falls.
Whether you are looking for a weekend break, something to do whilst in the area, or a full blown adventure holiday, Bongwe offer something for everyone.
We operate our own safaris in the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Livingstone. Set along the banks of the Zambezi River above the Victoria Falls, the park hosts an abundance of African wildlife. Enjoy a morning or afternoon game drive and, if you wish, combine it with a walking safari and/or a Zambezi River Cruise. All morning safaris include a bush breakfast and afternoon trips include sundowners on the banks of the Zambezi. All Bongwe Safari trips include an encounter with the only wild rhino in Zambia.
With so much to do in Livingstone, you would be forgiven for not being sure where to spend your precious time and money. That is where Bongwe come in. We will only offer the activities that we feel are not only value for money, but also great fun. What you see on our website are the activities we have given a thumbs up to thus far. As time goes on we will be adding more as and when we have sampled the offerings.
Bongwe’s Big Bush Pub & Grill in Livingstone has been our lifeline during this pandemic, especially the bar and restaurant side of things. Beers are the cheapest in town and the grub is hearty and wholesome. Obviously, the pandemic put a hold on international tourism, but when this is all over, expect us to be as welcoming and fun as we always were. In the meantime, why not visit us and enjoy a great pub lunch or dinner and some drinks in a friendly, secluded, yet spacious environment just a stone’s throw from the Victoria Falls.
We are locatated on Lukanga Road, about half way down and on on the right. The former Dessert Flower. We have darts, a pool table, outside and inside seating, play your own music from your phone, and book a safari with us at the same time.
Bongwe Safaris also offer a secluded camp and guesthouse not far from the Victoria Falls. We have walk-in safari tents with en-suite bathrooms, showers, and hot water. We also offer a large, 3 bedroom guesthouse that is fully furnished, offering the perfect getaway.
The grounds have a swimming pool, self-catering kitchen, and the Victoria Falls can be heard in the distance.
The Conservation And Tourism Society is about the preservation of the habitat and environment for the betterment of the species that live in it. It's about education and compassion accompanied by community driven initiatives. It's about having a sense of responsibility and long-term vision for conserving and improving our little part of the world that so many people visit - Livingstone.
Bongwe Safaris are entering the world of NFTs in order to raise money for CATS. Visit our founder Jon's website for more information.
