Tongabezi Lodge

A tranquil haven tucked away from the tourist crowds of Victoria Falls

Tongabezi Lodge

A long-established luxury lodge nestled on a riverside position only 12 kilometres upstream from Victoria Falls.

Named by Conde Nast as one of the top 20 Hotels in the World, Tongabezi Lodge is a must-see destination for families visiting the Livingstone area of Zambia. The eleven river cottages are dotted along a hidden bank of the Zambezi River and each boast high ceilings and private pine decks overlooking the river. Families can select from a range of spacious private houses, each with its own game drive vehicle, boat and chef. 

Tongabezi Lodge offers a diverse range of activities, ensuring that no member of the family will be left idle during your stay. Take a cruise to witness the must-see Victoria Falls, cycle to the nearby Simonga Village and Mukuni Markets for a taste of Zambian culture or simply indulge in a private dining experience on a sampan boat. 

The more adventurous visitors have the option of a white-water rafting trip down the Zambezi Canyon. Not to mention that if you are visiting during the months of July and August, when the Victoria Falls are at their lowest flow, daredevils can take a dip in Devil’s Pool teetering on the top of the Falls’ heights.

Tongabezi Lodge uniquely combines tranquil luxury and hell-raising adventure, making it an unforgettable family destination along the Zambezi River.
