Muchenje Safari Lodge

Me and my partner have just spent 3days at the lodge. It was one of the most beautiful places we’ve stayed at. The first thing the staff greet you with on arrival is welcome home. On the very first afternoon we went on our first drive and spotted many animals, the guides are really good and knowledgeable. I would recommend this as a location to stay.

We had an outstanding stop here on our Safari. The staff are on another level and the general manager was an example of how a manager should be managing people. We had shared dining experiences and the food was of a very good standard. Rooms very well appointed and are well maintained. The guides are very good, very knowledgeable and very helpful. The trips we did were wonderful and we saw Elephants galore, watching them cross the river was very emotional. All staff in this hotel are exceptional and I wouldn’t hesitate in staying here again.

From the moment you arrive you feel right at home. The staff are warm and welcoming. The location is superb overlooking the Chobe River and flood plains. The entrance to Chobe National Park is only 10 minutes away. Once checked in you will be taken to your own private cottage which is fully equipped and you will want for nothing. Each and every member of staff is well trained and nothing is too difficult. The safari guides are brilliant and love to joke around. The chefs provide so much very tasty food which is difficult to turn down. Management run a very smooth operation. Everything just happens as it should. Chobe Park is a fantastic place to watch elephant, buffalo, giraffe, buck, lions, leopards, hippos and crocodiles. The bird life is prolific. Our fourth trip to Africa but our first to Botswana. We are truly impressed.

Muchenje Safari Lodge is the best in safety in the bush and safari experiences bar none!! The location on a hillside overlooking the Chobe river and the vast plains and animal herds below is breathtaking. Lips our safari guide is a natural at animal behavior and seeking outstanding and breathtaking animal adventures at sunrise and sunset. From elephants crossing the Chobe river to get to an island for grass feeding, to a lion family descending a hillside at night, to following a giraffe's stare to find Namibian lions crossing the Chobe to Botswana, he is relentless in providing the ultimate safari experiences beyond our wildest dreams. We will never forget his dedication to working very long hours daily and demonstrating his love of Botswana and the bush plus finding that illusive leopard hidden in the bush. My family and I were so fortunate to have him as our guide and to stay at the Muchenje Safari lodge with their gracious hosts and staff. Our outstanding trip of a lifetime thanks to them all.

This is a very beautiful lodge with amazing views on the Chobe River. The staff is lovely and you feel like in a family. The game drives are excellent.

Muchenje was exceptional! Whole staff makes you feel like family and enjoyed the community meals. Philli(sp?) was my guide and he was awesome! Great game drives experience in the evenings around the Chobe River and Chobe Natl Park in the mornings. Rambo and Tips were also really good to visit with! Entire staff was wonderful! Definitely worth coming here for at least a couple nights while in the Botswans, Zambia, Zimbabwe borders area. Wish I could have stayed longer.
