Royal Chundu is situated upstream from the majestic Victoria Falls on the banks of the Zambezi River and hugs the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. Encompasses two lodges, River Lodge and Island Lodge, both with kaleidoscopic views of the Zambezi River.
Children of all ages are permitted at River Lodge.
Children aged 12 years and over are considered adults and will therefore require their own suite at the applicable rates. Child minding services are available at an additional cost.
Ten exclusive River Lodge suites, disguised among the riverine vegetation, radiate seclusion and tranquility. The charm and secrecy of the four spacious Island Lodge villas are accentuated by its location resting on the Katombora river-island, sheltered by gushing rapids.
River Lodge scatters ten suites along the riverfront with wooden decks ensuring intimate and serene views accompanied by uninterrupted privacy. These luxurious suites gaze across the Zambezi River and peer into neighboring Zimbabwe’s picturesque landscape. Thatched roofing and interior furnishings echo the Zambezi hues and accentuate the surrounding natural beauty. Each suite boasts an en-suite bathroom, fan, air-conditioning, mini-bar, mosquito nets, safe, and luxury amenities.
With only four spacious villas on the island, Royal Chundu’s Island Lodge illuminates tranquility, exclusivity, and privacy. The well-appointed suites, splashed with cobalt blue and earthy palettes, open up onto private decks overlooking the river rapids. Refresh in the infinity pool and in the evenings relax in a riverfront bathtub - the perfect romantic getaway. Each villa boasts an en-suite bathroom, fan, air-conditioning, mini-bar, mosquito nets, safe, and luxury amenities.
River Lodge facilities include a swimming pool, kid's club, restaurant, wine cellar, cocktail bar, tv room, library, complimentary Wi-Fi, an outdoor boma for dinners around the fire, spa treatments, and a helicopter pad.
Island Lodge facilities include a swimming pool, restaurant, bar, complimentary Wi-Fi, and spa treatments.
Victoria Falls offers a variety of activities but Royal Chundu offers sundowner river cruises, birding safaris, fishing, canoeing, a Victoria Falls tour, and a village tour.
Royal Chundu is easily accessible and is the ideal location for couples and families looking for adventure and uninterrupted privacy.
Transfers not specified, premium branded drinks, additional activities, and all items of a personal nature.

Pascal is a travel angel! Highly recommend him.
We started planning for our safari trip contacting a bunch of different travel advisors but Pascal's service truly stood out to us as the best in the industry. He took care of planning everything from start to finish for our very last minute honeymoon trip (literally a month out and during the busiest safari season). He is extremely meticulous and very responsive to our 100 questions. He shared first hand experiences at each of the different lodges, personal pictures and gave us solid recommendations within our budget. He hopped on a call with us initially to explain all the differences to us first time safari goers, and continued to be very flexible and patient with us as we couldn't decide! We are very excited for our trip and cannot thank Pascal enough for being our first interaction on our upcoming trip.

I highly recommend Shann Shaw
Shann Shaw has been great to work with and she has tried her best to try to meet our budget expectations. She is very kind, responsive and detailed in her explanations and really, really helpful. When I told her I decided to book through expedia or booking, she still explained how everything worked and how these websites sometimes don't have all the details you need, yet, she work hard in getting us our flights and the hotel that we really wanted for this experience. I couldn't be happier with her service and dedication and highly recommend her services!

Candis was lovely to work with and super quick to respond. The entire process from when we first reached out to her to inquire about a trip to when we confirmed the quote and booking was under a week. We sincerely appreciated having all of these details taken care of for us and the all of the attention she took in answering our questions and adjusting our trip to work within our timeline.
