Royal Zambezi Lodge

From the moment you arrive, you are welcomed like royalty. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel at home, with genuine hospitality and attention to detail. The lodge is beautifully situated, offering stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The game drive was an unforgettable experience — we saw an incredible variety of wildlife, guided by a passionate and knowledgeable ranger who made the whole journey both exciting and educational. Every moment was well-organized and truly special. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, this place has it all. Definitely a must-visit and highly recommended!

Amazing. The place is just perfect. Every one from the writers to the safari guide are JUST so wonderful knowledgeable and friendly. It's the perfect holiday. My son and I climbed the never again mountain...with guides and the ranger. It was worth Every moment. We keep coming back to THE ROYAL. Looking forward to next time....soon I hope.

Visited for my elderly fathers birthday recently. They catered to him perfectly as he some some mobility issues, but they made sure he was respected and able to join in on all the amazing activities. If you're looking for a real luxury stay amongst some outstanding wildlife and landscapes then you need to come to royal. The staff are never too close and never too far away, allowing you to feel right at home. The food is outstanding and they make sure you have the energy to dive into all the activities. Couldn't recommend enough.

Food was excellent, location is excellent, guides are great and overall service was top notch. It really is a lovely place to visit. My only issue was that the rooms could have been much cleaner and better maintained than they are. We stayed in both the deluxe suite as well as the presidential suite. I noticed 8 spiders on my bed canopy within an hour of checking in. It was filthy under all the rugs too of both rooms. Plumbing could use some work too.

Pure bliss on the banks of the Zambezi River. This was a beautiful experience in every way from the beginning to the end it was absolutely perfect. You wake up to the sound of hippos munching and birds singing. Wonderfully friendly staff, delicious food and a stunning lodge all surrounded by nature which shows a wonderful way we can live alongside the wild animals. I can’t wait to go back!!! Well done to everyone involved in making Royal Zambezi so special. Can i give it a 10 out of 5? 👌👌👌

I stayed at Royal Zambezi Lodge in May 2025 and had an unforgettable experience. The accommodation was amazing, and it was incredible to see wild animals walking right through the garden. The activities were exciting and well-organized, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I truly enjoyed every moment!

We hadn’t been to The Royal in a while—and wow, we truly missed it!||Thank you for reminding us what it means when luxury meets the wild. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family and spoiled with exceptional service and mouthwatering food. The upgraded menu is absolutely incredible—every meal was a treat!||We stayed in the newly refurbished Frontier Suite, which was simply stunning—elegant, luxurious, and perfectly placed with wildlife always nearby. What a truly special experience.||We arrived without any fishing gear—but as avid fishing lovers, that didn’t stop us. Thankfully, The Royal had everything we needed. |We've now discovered just how easy it is to fly in, use their quality equipment, and fly out again—completely hassle-free. It made the whole experience even more relaxing and enjoyable.||A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for creating such a magical getaway. We’ll definitely be back—much sooner this time!

My fourth time spent with royal was extra special, I got to experience it with my elderly father and younger brother whom it was thier first time on safari. It was a perfect stay, excellent service and hospitality effortlessly mingled between a raw African safari experience.
