From the Zambezi to Munga Plains: A Wellbeing and Safari Retreat in Zimbabwe and Botswana

"Group photo at Victoria Fall's with rainbows and smiles on Together we Breathe's Wellbeing and Safari Retreat."

I’m writing this from Munga Plains in Botswana, tucked away in the wild beauty of the African bush. This is the final stop on our Together we Breathe Wellbeing & Safari Retreat, and I’m still soaking in every moment.

This journey has taken us from Victoria Falls to Chobe National Park, and now here, to this peaceful eco-lodge where we’re spending our final days moving slowly, sharing meals under the stars, and connecting deeply with ourselves, each other, and the natural world.

Victoria Falls: Rainbows, Markets & River Magic

We began with two nights in Victoria Falls, exploring the iconic landmark known as “The Smoke That Thunders.” We were lucky enough to witness double rainbows, some of the brightest I’ve ever seen and I’m so curious to return in April 2026, when the Falls will be in full flow after the rainy season.

I also joined my first e-bike tour on a Bamba bike, cycling through the town, exploring local markets, and enjoying lunch along the Zambezi River a perfect way to ease into the pace of life here.

A Taste of Zimbabwe: Dusty Road Dining

Our evening at Dusty Road was a vibrant open-air celebration of local flavours and culture. This set-menu experience meant we tasted everything from aromatic curries to fresh grains and vibrant vegetables, and indulgent desserts.

The team supports the local children’s school, and we were treated to beautiful traditional singing at dinner. Their cookbook and craft store are well worth a visit if you’re in Victoria Falls.

Sunrise Yoga on the Zambezi River

One of the most magical moments: sunrise yoga on a boat, arranged with the help of Victoria Falls Yoga, our wellbeing facilitator in Zimbabwe. As the boat drifted gently along the river, the dawn sky turned pink and gold, and the enormous sun rose above the horizon while we moved, breathed, and found stillness together. Absolutely unforgettable, a true moment of awe! And there were ample elephants, hippos and other amazing animals along the way!

This journey has gifted us countless sunrises, sunsets, and even a lunar eclipse, nothing like I’ve ever experienced before. The sun has been a glorious, radiant pink unlike anything I’ve ever seen.

From Safari to Stillness: The Essence of This Retreat

This retreat is far more than a vacation it’s an immersive wellbeing and safari journey through Southern Africa, weaving adventure, restoration, and connection into a singular, soulful experience. More to come and the rest of Together we Breathe’s trip to Africa in my next blog.

Retreat Highlights:

• Exploring Victoria Falls and sunrise yoga on the Zambezi River, with wild animals along the banks

• Biking, market strolls, and riverside lunches with Bamba Bikes

• 1-night camping safari in Chobe National Park (more in my next post)

• A grounding stay at Munga Plains eco-lodge (more to come in my upcoming posts)

• Yoga, mindful movement and breathwork

• Boat rides, wildlife encounters, and intentional presence

If you’re seeking space, nature, movement, simplicity, and joy, this isn’t just a break — it’s a return to what matters most.
