A river retreat woven with romance and wonder
Perched above the banks of the Zambezi River, just upstream from Victoria Falls, Tongabezi is a place where luxury dances with whimsy. Each room and house is uniquely styled—some carved into cliffside rocks, others perched high in the trees or nestled by the water’s edge. With open-air bathtubs, canopied beds, and sweeping river views, every space feels dreamlike and deeply personal.
But Tongabezi is more than a lodge—it’s an experience steeped in warmth, creativity, and soul. Here, your days might begin with breakfast in bed as the sun rises over the Zambezi, and end with a candlelit dinner floating on a private platform under the stars. Between, there’s time for gentle boat safaris, cultural visits to local villages and schools, and exhilarating excursions to Victoria Falls and Livingstone Island.
What makes Tongabezi unforgettable is its spirit of generosity and joy. The team’s attention to detail feels instinctive and heartfelt, creating a space where travelers feel not just welcomed, but truly cared for. Whether you’re celebrating love, seeking stillness, or simply wanting to slow down, Tongabezi offers a storybook escape on one of Africa’s most storied rivers.
