Upon arrival at Livingstone Airport, guests will be met by a representative of Thorntree River Lodge who will transfer them by road on the 20 minute drive upstream from Victoria Falls. Thorntree River Lodge blends a tranquil riverside setting with an eco-conscious approach. It offers a tranquil base from which to explore a wide range of awe-inspiring activities, all within easy access of the lodge. Showcasing incredible panoramic river views from its unique vantage, the shared lounge, library and dining areas are beautiful hubs of relaxation.

During their stay here, guests can enjoy sunrise and sunset boat cruises, a visit to the Zambian side of the Falls (visit to the Zimbabwean side of the Falls in low water season excluding visa fees), canoeing safari, rhino walk, game drives in Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, catch and release fishing (not available in December due to breeding season), gym and spa (additional cost).

After a delicious breakfast, guests will pack up and be transported to Livingstone Airport in time for their 1-hour flight to Lusaka Airport where they will connect to their light aircraft flight to Mfuwe airstrip (1 hour). On arrival they will be welcomed by a representative of the intimate Chikunto Safari Lodge and a safari vehicle will transfer them on a scenic drive to the camp.

Chikunto Safari Lodge is located within the South Luangwa National Park less than an hour’s drive from the National Park’s Mfuwe gate. Flanked by rolling plains, plateaus, river banks and miombo vegetation our lodge is located in an area of distinctive natural beauty and has become renowned for its prolific wildlife and spectacular game viewing. This small-scale lodge enjoys sweeping views of the Luangwa River and accommodates just 12 guests seeking a distinctive safari experience.

After a tasty breakfast, and (time permitting) morning activity, guests will pack up and be transported to Mfuwe Airport in time for their short flight onto Jeki Airstrip, where they will be met by a representative of Lolebezi and transferred back to camp.

Set in the breath-taking, untouched wilds of the Lower Zambezi National Park in Zambia, Lolebezi is set on 5 hectares of protected wilderness, and the lodge has been designed to make the most of the 1 kilometre of private river frontage. Waking up with the majestic Zambezi River flowing just in front of your room is a truly exceptional experience!
