Experience the Magic of Chundukwa River Lodge

Perched on the banks of the Zambezi River just 25 minutes upstream from Victoria Falls, Chundukwa River Lodge offers an unforgettable blend of wilderness, comfort, and warm Zambian hospitality. This intimate, owner-run lodge is a sanctuary for travelers seeking peace, authenticity, and connection to nature - with the Falls and Livingstone town just a short drive away.

Your Stay, Reimagined

Chundukwa features a selection of open-fronted, river-facing chalets, each designed to bring the outdoors in. Fall asleep to the sounds of the flowing river, wake up to birdsong, and take in panoramic views from your private deck. Each suite is uniquely crafted with local materials, handmade furniture and thoughtful touches that reflect the spirit of Zambia.

Whether you're in a luxury chalet, a family-friendly cottage, or the more private Chundu Cottage, you'll enjoy comfort, space, and privacy - all immersed in the natural surroundings.

Homegrown Hospitality & Cuisine

What truly makes Chundukwa special is the people. Guests are welcomed like family, with personalised attention from the lodge team and hands-on care from the owners themselves. The cuisine is another highlight - fresh, wholesome meals made with local ingredients and served in scenic, relaxed settings. Enjoy sundowners by the river, dinners under the stars, and breakfasts surrounded by nature.

More Than a Place to Sleep

Chundukwa is not just a lodge — it’s an experience. Guests can unwind by the pool, take guided birding walks, explore nearby villages, or simply relax and watch life unfold on the river.
