👍👍 It locates not so far from Lusaka, which takes for 4hours by car. This is so good location which is beautiful and quiet. The restaurant and bar are clean with well desciplined staffs. The lunch and dinner are also nice which is unique and interesting menu. Game drive and boat cruise are also amazin...

Sleek suites in a laid-back riverside lodge offering an outdoor pool, massages & a lounge.

👍👍 We arrived at the lodge and were greeted by Borniface, the lodge manager. He was extremely welcoming and showed us around the lodge and rooms. We were also served a delicious welcome drink. All the staff at Mopani are very helpful and go out of their way to make you feel as comfortable as possible....

👍 Just passed by Gwabi for a quick tour as we were seeing all the places around this area. Had a nice breakfast and toured the place and also went on a boat ride. The fee for visiting is k100 per head, there's not much to do if you visit the area besides the boat rides and fishing. It was a lovely and...

🫤 Accomodation is great and the staff are friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the lodge is let down by its restaurant. The breakfast buffet could be better and more staff could be made available. Most salt shakers were plugged with rice granules. Suppers were really sub par especially at the prices. S...

👍 Ila Lodge – Kafue – Run by Green Safaris A luxury tented lodge … very exclusive. The staff are warm and welcoming. They pay attention to every request and are ever so helpful. The luxury tents were well appointed … great care in sanitizing and fresh products are set out. We loved every moment of...

🫤 I went to Tiffany's Canyon Lodge with very high hopes. The lady I found at the reception welcome me well. However, the service from the people at the reception in the subsequent days of my stay were not very helpful. Food was okay when you order from the restaurant. But the conferencing food was ver...

👍👍 We had the most perfect stay at the beautiful Thorntree River Lodge! The staff was very welcoming and super attentive! We’ve enjoyed their sunset river cruise, victoria fall trip and the drive to the endangered white rhinos and of course simply relaxing at their refreshing swimming pool with the vie...

👍 Great reception, great food and relaxing ambience. If you want a getaway that is close to town but not so close, this is a great location for family, friends and also couples

😐 Its a cothlick church

👍 A new lodge that is well built and quite nice. The standard rooms have a working fridge, kettle and air conditioner, the latter of which comes in handy as there's few trees to shade the chalets. The hot water in the shower was piping hot which is always appreciated. Staff were friendly and helpful a...

👍👍 It's a Nice logde ...with good accomodations

Simple rooms & suites in a down-to-earth lodge featuring an outdoor pool & 2 restaurants.

👍👍 Super nice place, near the airport. Clean, quiet, amazing decor and a beatiful garden! The meals were simple but very tasty. The staff was very nice and friendly! Thomas was top - he was our driver during a tour/game drive to Lusaka National Park and he was amazing and tireless trying to find some...

👍 The place is generally fine, clean rooms, menu for once has variety not the usual chicken, fish and pork served with either rice, nshima or chips. The staff can do better on customer care but are at least they show that they care.

👍 I liked my stay there. The tents are very comfortable. Tons of hippos in the river in front of the lodge and wildlife all over the place. On the down side, given the price most backpackers don’t even get here. If you are backpacking and looking for young friends on the way here you will only find...
