“Great choice in Vic Falls”
We choose this hotel because of its setting within a beautiful park-like garden. It is very tastefully decorated and lies in a quiet neighbourhood. The property seems very well managed and maintained; the staff are certainly a big plus of this hotel - they are extremely professional, friendly and efficient. The room was fine as was the food. Pioneers is certainly a good choice when visiting Vic Falls.

“Out of this world! The wonderful Pioneers lodge, the unbelieveble sight of the waterfall plus the mighty Zambezi river”
Everything was perfect. Amenities, decor, rooms and all tasty meals served on patios with views on the luscious garden that stole my heart! How ever, the trump card of Pioneers is the well trained, efficient staff who carry you on their hands from the moment you arrive. They make feel special and will attend to you with their friendly smiles at all times. Thank you all for making our stay special. We will definately make Pioneers our first choice when ever we vist the majestic waterfall and the mighty Zambezi river again. Marlene from NAMIBIA
