Overview of Muchenje Safari Lodge

Set in a private concession in a rarely visited part of the Chobe River area, Muchenje Safari Lodge has views of the Chobe River and its teeming floodplains as far as the eye can see. This owner-run and managed lodge pays much attention to detail – from decor and accommodation to service and guiding – and you’re assured of an intimate and personalised safari experience. Morning, afternoon and even full-day game drives in open 4X4s provide an opportunity to see elephant, buffalo, giraffe and a wide range of classic African animals. Predators such as lion, leopard wild dog are often seen and the region is one of the most prolific birdwatching areas in Africa.

Night drives to see rare nocturnal creatures that remain hidden during the heat of the day are also offered. Don’t miss a river cruise past herds of elephants, hippo and other river life on the Chobe River, or one of Muchenje’s walking safaris in their private concession which allows you to explore the intricacies of the environment such as animal behaviour, plants, insects and big game up close. Muchenje Safari Lodge is committed to the upliftment of the local primary school which you can visit for a very rewarding cultural experience. Enquire in advance about items to bring for the school.
