Sustainable Luxury on the Zambezi

Set beside the mighty Zambezi River, Wilderness Toka Leya offers an elegant and environmentally conscious safari escape close to the spectacular Victoria Falls. Located within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, the camp provides an exceptional base for combining wildlife encounters, river adventures and the exhilarating experiences of one of Africa’s greatest natural landmarks.

Just a short drive from Victoria Falls, one of the world’s celebrated natural wonders, guests can enjoy the best of Zambia’s wilderness while staying at a camp committed to conservation and responsible tourism.

Explore the national park on game drives in search of elephants, antelope, giraffes and other wildlife. On the river, dawn and sunset cruises reveal a different side of the Zambezi, with opportunities to encounter hippos, crocodiles and abundant birdlife. For a truly spectacular perspective, take to the skies on a helicopter flight over Victoria Falls – or simply stand at the Falls and appreciate the immense power and beauty of the Zambezi cascading into the gorge below.

Relax and Reconnect

Toka Leya is as much about relaxation as it is about adventure. Its peaceful riverside setting makes it an ideal place to unwind before or after a safari.

Begin the morning with yoga or meditation on your private veranda while watching the Zambezi flow past. Rejuvenate with a treatment at the camp’s spa, then spend a leisurely afternoon beside the infinity pool, taking in sweeping views of the river and surrounding wilderness.

Accommodation

Designed with a light environmental footprint, Toka Leya blends contemporary comfort with a strong connection to nature. The lounge, dining area, bar and pool deck, together with the 13 spacious tented suites, are elevated on wooden platforms to minimise their impact on the surrounding environment.

Every suite enjoys beautiful views of the Zambezi, where hippos, crocodiles and elephants can often be seen along the riverbanks. Three of the suites are configured as family units, each with an additional bedroom.

Cuisine

Dining at Toka Leya is an experience in itself, combining seasonal organic ingredients with the flavours and traditions of Zambia.

Guests can enjoy a selection of tasting dishes at lunch, indulge in a leisurely high tea beside the Zambezi or gather for the camp’s much-loved wood-fired pizzas after an evening sundowner. Watching the sunset paint the river while enjoying dinner adds an unforgettable finishing touch.

A Riverside Sanctuary

Approximately 12 kilometres northwest of Victoria Falls, Toka Leya occupies a tranquil position within Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park on the banks of the Zambezi River.

Spacious tented suites open onto generous private decks where guests can relax and admire the surrounding scenery. From this peaceful riverside retreat, adventure is always within reach – whether exploring the national park, cruising the Zambezi or discovering the magnificent Victoria Falls.
