June 1, 2014 by DaveLeave a Comment

This hip and urban backpackers hangout features friendly folks, a variety of area activities, private and dorm rooms – but most of all is a central meeting point for adventurous travelers from around the world. It was founded in 1995 by backpackers. Long are the days of basic accommodation for backpackers. This place has wifi, a swimming pool, a restaurant on site, a nice kitchen and some of the tastiest mangoes that drop on the roofs during season and dare we say we saw a masseuse. Yes, you can have massages at certain times of the day next to the pool.

One of the highlights of a stay here is the ease of participating in a variety of organized activities – many of which are centered around the Zambezi River and Victoria Falls. You can go jetboating, make a day trip to Chobe National Park in Botswana to view the prolific wildlife, enjoy a river cruise on the Zambezi (booze cruise). white water rafting, a helicopter sightseeing trip and many other activities – or just hang out and chill by the pool for a day! Jollyboys is located about 11 kilometers from Victoria Falls and is conveniently near shopping, banks and grocery stores. The Livingstone Museum is also about a 2 minute walk away.
