World Travel Awards Nominee 2024
Muchenje Safari Lodge is perched atop an escarpment on the tranquil western side of Botswana’s Chobe National Park. Offering spectacular views of the Chobe River and the seasonal floodplains, its location ensures a peaceful retreat away from the busy Kasane area while being only a two-hour drive from the stunning Victoria Falls.
Children 8 years and older are welcome. Children under 8 on request in Low Season.
Families with children between 8 – 12 years old will need to book a private vehicle for their safari.
Minimum age for walking and mokoro is 12 yrs and is at the discretion of the management and guide.
One family at any one time only – only 2 triples in standard rooms permitted at any time.
Muchenje’s main lodge features a spacious lounge, bar, and dining area with views of the Chobe River and our waterhole.
While the dining area centers around a communal dining experience, guests have the option to dine privately. For a more intimate setting, there's a pergola by the pool.
They offer a Bush Braai (barbecue) in a boma situated in the bush, close to the lodge.
Our chefs prepare delicious and diverse meals, accommodating vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets.
Extensive deck areas provide guests with a relaxing space to enjoy the scenery.
They are ideal for watching the African sunset with a cold drink or stargazing around our fire pit.
The swimming pool, open year-round, overlooks the floodplain.

Keith - best travel agent in the world
Keith is such an amazing communicator, very organised and helpful. This will be my first ever visit to the Kruger national park. As a fellow South African I never had the chance to visit the Kruger NP. Keith sent us voice recordings and I cried listening to his accent and hearing the beautiful nature in the background bringing back so many fond memories of our beautiful country. These messages were so special! I can’t wait to visit and am really looking forward to the most magical experience.
