spectacularly different setting, scenery and experience from that offered by
Lebala. Our guests staying at both camps will have enjoyed game drives,
including night drives, in vastly different settings and enjoyed fishing and
boat cruises on the Kwando river from the shady Lagoon Camp. Therefore, we feel
that the ideal Kwando experience will involve stays at both special camps. A

Stay at Lagoon and you will experience that unique Kwando Safaris experience “intimate camps in private areas with personal service”.

Songwe Village guarantees that you will enjoy your stay. Having chosen Songwe
Village as your base from which to explore this exciting destination will
enhance your experience of the Victoria Falls. Livingstone – the local town on
the Zambian side of the Falls – is not know as the adventure capital of Africa
for nothing. However, your experience can be one of relaxation and peace, or
adrenalin and excitement or even a bit of both. As always with Kwando Safaris –
you get to choose! Your exposure to African culture will be subtle and interesting and tailored to suit your interests – Songwe Village is not a cultural show. The huts are spacious with tasteful traditional furniture enhanced by modern comfortable mattresses to ensure a good nights sleep. Each hut has a flush loo and basin en suite. The showers and baths are set on the edge of the Batoka gorge, 110metres above the lower Zambezi River – enabling us to claim that we have the best bathroom views in the world. Bathing will be a highlight of your stay with us. |
