ROYAL CHUNDU
is a new 5 star lodge situated
50 kilometers upstream from Victoria Falls on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River,
overlooking the majestic river and expansive bushveld beyond. Incredibly, Royal
Chundu is positioned on a piece of untamed Africa with rapids protecting it up and
downstream thus granting guests 15 km of unspoilt and private river usage. Spacious
suites and public areas masterfully blend colonial elegance and African charm, offering
luxurious accommodation in 14 beautiful suites. 10 are perched on the banks of the
Zambezi, while 4 private suites with their own lounge, dinning and pool area are
located on Katombora Island, 4 kilometers upstream from the main lodge. Suites are
exquisitely decorated, reflecting a bygone era of comfort in the wild. Start your
day on Katombora Island where a walk brings you closer to nature, or enjoy the tranquility
and awe of a river canoe followed by a pampering at our floating river spa. One
can view and experience Africa’s magnificent wildlife during a day trip to Chobe
National Park in neighbouring Botswana. The option of experiencing one of the natural
wonders of the world, during a picnic outing to Victoria Falls is an absolute must.
Choose to dine indoors in true ethnic elegance, or experience open air dining in
the Chief’s boma, where you will be treated to an authentic African barbeque and
traditional song and dance.
