General information

The Islands of Siankaba Lodge is the most classic of forested retreats. Siankaba's seven secluded chalets, each with its unique and individually different view of the mighty Zambezi River, are linked by a foot bridge to a haute cuisine restaurant. All of this is located on two untouched islands in the middle of the mighty Zambezi River situated between the 'Seventh Wonder of the Natural World', the magnificent Victoria Falls, and the world famous Chobe National Park.

Given Siankaba’s proximity to the adventure sports capital of Livingstone, the spectacular Victoria Falls, and both Mosi-O-Tunya and Chobe National Parks, a huge variety of expeditions can be arranged from the lodge. Sedate elephant-back safaris, exhilarating bungy-jumping over the gorge, white water rafting on the mighty Zambezi, flights on helicopters, craft shopping and jet boating can all be easily arranged.

Siankaba is a true retreat for discerning travellers who wish to distance themselves from the hustle and bustle of the Falls area and yet be close enough to explore the areas many attractions at their leisure. Its spectacular setting in the middle of one of the world’s great rivers is a simply perfect place to begin or end an African adventure.
