The Victoria Falls are a mere 25 km away and easy to get to when you want to experience the rush of the falls. The bonus is that your room is quiet and you don't have to put up with the buzzing of helicopters and jetboats cruising past.
Chundukwa River Lodge is situated on the Zambezi River, in a particularly game rich area. The hippos will grunt you to sleep at night while you cuddle down in your riverfront chalet. With only 5 chalets, Chundukwa is a private and personal lodge with exellent service. The lodge is built to blend in with the surroundings with its use of thatch, wood and reeds. The thatch keeps it cool during the hot summer months when all you want to do is bob in the sparkling pool.
Don't expect the latest in interior design at Chundukwa River Lodge. The decor is African with lots of wood to blend into the surroundings. Chundukwa is about the setting and the views, and those are spectacular.
Even though you are a short distance away from the Falls, you won't miss out. A tour of the Falls is included in your package, as well as a sunset cruise. Other activities offered at the lodge are horseback riding and canoeing. At the Victoria Falls you can enjoy jet boating, heli flips and elephant back safaris to name a few.
