For those looking to mark a special occasion or simply slow down and connect with the landscape, a Victoria Falls bush dinner offers a thoughtful, well-crafted alternative to traditional dining. Set in a remote outdoor location, it’s a chance to enjoy good food, quiet surroundings and the calm of the African night.
What is a Bush Dinner?
A bush dinner is an open-air private dining experience in Victoria Falls held in a secluded setting, far from the bustle of town. Pure Africa’s Bush Dinner begins with a transfer from your hotel to a discreet location, where you’ll be welcomed into an atmospheric lantern-lit space surrounded by nature.
Guests are served a freshly prepared locally-sourced three-course meal, cooked on-site by professional chefs and accompanied by drinks from a fully stocked bar. As the evening progresses, the sounds of the bush take over – birds settling, animals calling and fire crackling nearby. It’s a calm, unhurried experience that brings focus to the setting and the people you’re with.
