Chundukwa River Lodge
Overview of Chundukwa River Lodge
Zambia, Victoria Falls
Chundukwa River Lodge is situated on the banks of the Zambezi River, close to the historic town of Livingstone in Zambia. This tranquil river lodge has excellent proximity to the mighty Victoria Falls but is far enough away from the hustle and bustle to provide you with a peaceful retreat. Nestled in lush riverine vegetation, the secluded thatched suites boast uninterrupted views across the river. Built on wooden stilts and named after gorgeous local birds, they are romantic and luxurious, a perfect retreat for honeymooners and couples.
The lounge and dining area are worth a special mention for their inviting deck and stunning view. There is a rock-clad plunge pool from which to sip sundowners and watch the day come to a beautiful end. The stables have over 50 experienced and well-trained horses available for outrides among lagoons and Chundukwa's stunning scenery: exploring on horseback is a completely different experience to being on foot or in a vehicle.
In addition, Chundukwa River Lodge is owner-run and service-orientated, specialising in one-on-one interactions on classic sunset cruises, cultural village tours, birding trips, horse trails as well as trips to Victoria Falls. Chundu Cottage is available for small groups or families travelling together.
Make a Positive Impact Through TravelThe Chundukwa team strongly believes in responsible, sustainable land management, conserving the wilderness and wildlife now and for future generations. Simply put, they support initiatives that are self-motivating and, in turn, support animals and the community. There are quite a few local initiatives which guests could support, including The Chundukwa Foundation, Nakawa Community Academy, Zambezi Animal Welfare Services, and Conservation South Luangwa – Detection Dog Unit. |

Chundukwa River Lodge – this was such a good experience. We were virtually the only ones in the lodge and so well looked after. 4.9/5 for the whole experience. Victoria Falls was magnificent and our driver facilitated everything.

Our bush country lodging were all very nice. I would rate Jatinga as the best, Simbambili next, then Kafunta, and finally Chundukwa, based on accommodations and meals.

Chundukwa was really nice too. A little more basic than the others but really nice.
