WHY GO
Located in Zambia on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River, Royal Zambezi Lodge offers the ultimate in luxury while experiencing and participating closely in the sights and sounds of the African wilderness. This spacious yet intimate lodge welcomes children 6 years and up. The 15 airy canopied tents are nestled under mature trees along a beautiful river bank.
THE ROOMS
There are several types of family-friendly accommodations. There’s a dedicated family chalet close to the central guest relaxation and dining area. The family chalet consists of two classic suites joined by an outside lounge area between the two suites. The Presidential Suites can also be easily converted into family chalets. The tents are impeccably furnished with a contemporary, understated elegance – a perfect balance between extreme comfort and an unspoiled wilderness experience.

WHAT TO DO
Together with the Lower Zambezi National Park right on its doorstep, the lodge has its own pristine river frontage and scenic mountain backdrop of the valley escarpment. The wildlife-rich landscape provides a wondrous backdrop. A big part of the Royal family are the enthusiastic guides with many years of experience, who will take guests exploring, whether on a game drive, bush walk, fishing, canoeing or cultural village tour.
FOR KIDS
Activities for children range from educational nature walks and drives to river island games and entertainment with qualified professional guides. One of the best aspects about the location is that it’s able to offer children exciting activities on the Zambezi River, which is famous for its tiger fishing as well as bream, chessa and other species. Children and parents can also opt to visit the local village and school to learn more about the vibrant Zambian culture.
