About This Property
Chundu Island is a luxury lodge on its own island in the Upper Zambezi, an easy drive from Victoria Falls. You can enjoy the Falls by day and return to complete privacy and unspoilt river scenery.
Game drives and walks explore the Zambezi National Park, which is home to buffalo, sable, lion and leopard. Canoe trips and sunset cruises bring hippo, crocodile and elephant up close.
The island’s riverine forest is home to nyala, monkeys and birds such as Schalow’s turaco. Anglers can target tigerfish and bream among some 75 fish species.
Why We Love It
We love that Chundu pairs Victoria Falls with real seclusion. The suites, with their freestanding tubs, outdoor showers and river decks, are made for honeymooners.
Birders will also be happy, with Pel’s fishing owl, African skimmer and African finfoot all possible.
