Great Family facility

The family tent was very well furnished and comfortable, the setting looking onto the Zambezi...Fantastic. The camp site is also very well designed. Pity about the Tiger fishing, wrong time of year. Food, staff, boats really good. Will certainly go back.

Hi Carly, The boat transfer is about $150 one way per trip not per person so even if there are four of you it will still cost the same. Mvuu Lodge can arrange a road transfer from Chirundu and it is about $80 one way again... More
