Sussi & Chuma nestles on the banks of the mighty Zambezi River just 12 kilometres upstream from the iconic Victoria Falls, and alongside Zambia’s Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. Set amongst Jackalberry trees and Phoenix palms, the exclusive Sussi & Chuma offers panoramic views of the islanded-dotted river. The soothing sounds of the gently rushing river add to the relaxing ambience of this luxurious lodge, and the sumptuous accommodation and personalized attentive service assure a memorable and superbly comfortable stay.
Accommodation is in twelve spacious Sussi Tree-Houses, connected by wooden walkways, and two secluded Chuma Houses, each with two bedrooms.
The Tree-Houses are built in a canopy of imposing ebony trees along the picturesque river bank. Each Tree-House features an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub, air conditioning, mini-bar, mosquito nets, overhead fans and hairdryer, and a private viewing deck.
The two exclusive Chuma Houses are private self-contained homesteads offering one double and one twin en-suite bedroom. The double room offers an additional outdoor shower and other features include a lounge with a fireplace, spacious indoor and outdoor dining areas, a well-equipped kitchenette, an outdoor verandah with a barbecue area and a private swimming pool. Guests at the Chuma Houses also have their own private chef, guide, vehicle and boat.
Canopy-level walkways connect the tree-houses to the elevated thatched main lodge. The lodge facilities include a bar, lounge area, wine cellar, open-air dining area, boma, spa, swimming pool, and a viewing deck.

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…
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.
