Livingstone Island Picnic
$$$$
Fodor's choice
Available throughout the year whenever the water levels are low enough, this is a spectacular dining option. Livingstone Island is perched right on the edge of the void, where you'll dine at a table dressed with linen and gleaming silver on a delicious organic lunch (with salads) served by attentive waiters. You get there by boat (two engines, just in case). Brunch and afternoon tea are US$115 and US$155, respectively, and lunch is US$180, including transfers and a dip in Devil's Pool. The trips are run by Tongabezi Lodge, and there is a maximum of 24 guests.
