Yet another reason to choose Zambia for your next Southern African safari has just been revealed.
The luxurious and romantic Tongabezi Lodge has just been announced as one of Condè Nast Traveler’s top 20 hotels in the world. This will come as no surprise to those who have availed themselves of this resort’s excellent barefoot luxury offerings already.
Why Tongabezi?
Tongabezi offers once in a lifetime experiences from its hallowed position on the banks of the Zambezi River, close to the Victoria Falls. Here you will find the perfect blend of indulgence, tradition and exhilarating adventure.
Accommodation is offered in private cottages and uniquely themed houses. All of these offer exquisite luxury with unforgettable experiences right on your doorstep.
The Tree House is secluded in the branches of an Ebony tree against a basalt rock bed. The Dog House is placed on stilts above the raging river, the Nut House features a private infinity pool and the Bird House has an open-air bathtub and stargazing deck.
Perfect for families, the Garden House is set in a private space stepped back from the river, while Honeymoon House provides intimate privacy for tender moments. The 5 River Cottages are perfectly placed for game viewing overlooking the banks of the Zambezi River.
Each cottage and house comes with a personal valet who will serve your meals where and when you please. The floating sampan on the river is one of the more rewarding dining options, especially when paired with the new tapas menu and sundowners.
You can also enjoy a picnic or sundowners on the private sandbar, which offers a beach like experience in the middle of the river.
Adventures at Tongabezi
Sunrise and sunset boat trips on the Zambezi provide excellent opportunities for game viewing and day trips to Chobe National Park allow you to get up close to Zambia’s most sought-after creatures. Don’t miss the chance to indulge in the thrill of tiger fishing during your visit.
Victoria Falls offers a wealth of activities including a dip in Devil’s Pool, bridge swinging, white water rafting and power boat trips for the truly courageous. The less adrenaline inclined can opt for a helicopter flip, steam train dining or curio shopping at one of the local markets.
Tongabezi offers its own brand of interaction with the local community on trips to Tujatani School or Simonga Village. Other options include excursions to the Livingstone Museum, Mukuni Park or Maramba Market.
