2026 marks 10 years since we first welcomed guests to Matetsi Victoria Falls \u2013 a decade of creating space for our guests to nourish their souls, and perhaps fall in love, as we have done, with this beautiful part of the world. What began as a vision filled with passion and love has grown into a place defined by people, purpose and deep connection to the land.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we reflect on our journey to date, we are so grateful to our whole extended Matetsi family, to our travel industry colleagues, our past guests, our ambassadors across the globe for your partnership, belief, support and encouragement that has nourished us along the way,\u201d said Co-Founder Sara Gardiner.<\/p>\n

Matetsi Victoria Falls is an offering, an invitation to experience the freedom of time and space, to reconnect, to nourish and to thrive.<\/p>\n

Their combination experience is a truly unique blend of exclusive safari, tranquil river and effortless access to Victoria Falls, all wrapped up in warm Zimbabwean hospitality. Signature Africa manages all of their ground-handling services, ensuring every journey is as comfortable and effortless as possible. In addition to an excellent fleet, guests may travel in the elegant Ineos Grenadier, which is a four-seater Signature Class vehicle designed for both luxury and capability. With its refined interior, advanced features and wonderfully smooth ride, it is perfectly suited to exclusive transfers and private excursions around the Victoria Falls area.<\/p>\n

Their aviation partner, Frontier Aviation, offers a truly exceptional way to explore the region by air. Their brand-new Pilatus PC-12, based here at Matetsi Victoria Falls, is available for private charter throughout Southern and East Africa, not just for those staying at MVF. Seating up to 8 guests with luggage, the PC-12 is ideal for families and small groups wanting a private, flexible and seamless travel experience.Our aviation partner, Frontier Aviation, offers a truly exceptional way to explore the region by air.

Working through the GRACE Foundation has enabled them to achieve more than ever before on Matetsi Private Game Reserve, with several major conservation milestones accomplished over the past year. The successful completion of our first-ever aerial survey across the full 136,000-acre (55,000-hectare) Matetsi Private Game Reserve is a truly remarkable achievement. This project, led by the GRACE Foundation, was the first of its kind in the whole Victoria Falls area and marked a major step forward in improving how they monitor wildlife populations, assess habitat conditions and inform conservation planning and decision-making. The survey confirmed thriving populations of elephant, buffalo, waterbuck (following our Waterbuck translocation project in 2022) and many other species. These findings will guide conservation planning for years to come.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you, as always, for being part of our journey. As we prepare to enter our second decade, we look forward to continuing to create the freedom of time and space for your clients, our guests, to experience the essence of what makes Matetsi Magic,\u201d concluded Sara.<\/p>\n
