A family-owned boutique lodge on the banks of the Zambezi

Mukwa River Lodge

Mukwa River Lodge, a boutique retreat along the Zambezi River, offers families an unforgettable African adventure

Its proximity to Victoria Falls—just a short 20-minute drive away—makes it the perfect base for exploring one of the world’s most breathtaking natural wonders. The lodge blends luxury with an immersive wilderness experience, offering family-friendly accommodations like the two-bedroom Family River Suite. With spacious interiors, private plunge pools, and stunning views of the river, parents can relax while children enjoy spotting wildlife from the deck.

Mukwa’s location across from the Zambezi National Park offers daily wildlife encounters. Imagine watching elephants graze along the riverbanks from the comfort of your suite or while cruising down the Zambezi at sunset. The lodge’s activities are tailored to adventurous families, from guided walking safaris through the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park and riverboat rides to helicopter tours over Victoria Falls.

Beyond the thrilling outdoor experiences, Mukwa ensures every family member is pampered. Indulge in spa treatments, savour gourmet meals, and unwind in the tranquil surroundings. 

The combination of natural beauty, top-tier amenities, and bespoke service makes Mukwa River Lodge a perfect getaway for families looking to connect with nature while enjoying world-class luxury.
