Thorntree River Lodge

Livingstone, Zambia

Thorntree River Lodge is set in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park, just a short distance from the famous Victoria Falls. Thorntree River Lodge was rebuilt with an environmentally-conscious design. Drawing inspiration from local customs and culture, it is a modern contemporary design with tented roof structures to maintain the feel of authentic Africa.

Perching on the river edge are the twelve luxurious tented suites. Each unit has its own indoor and outdoor bathrooms, as well as a luxurious private plunge pool. The main lodge consists of a lounge with an open dining area, where the fine dining experience of African cuisine will come to life. The dining room flows into a private, temperature controlled wine cellar stocked with the finest wines. A gym and spa overlook the mighty Zambezi River, and there is a small library with WIFI. The communal deck is set on the edge of the stunning riverside, and is home to a sunken boma area and an infinity pool.

Activities included in your stay are: game drives in Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, rhino tracking, bush walks, sunrise & sunset boat cruises, Simonga Village visits, a visit to Zambian side of the Falls, a visit to the Zimbabwean side of the Falls in the dry season (excludes visa fees), visit to the Livingstone Museum, canoe trips with picnic lunch, visit to Maramba and Makuni Markets, and catch & release fishing.
