Mopani Safari Lodge

Definitely the best lodge in Mfuwe, very clean and tidy. Staff were ever soo friendly. Such a beautiful place, the luangwa view is amazing from the room specially the sunset. Love the way the swimming pool is in the shape of zambia. Inshallah will be back next year.

Very impressed with this venue their hospitality is overwhelming and the accommodation comfortable spacious and welcoming. I enjoyed the pleasure of a super superb guide Bryan who is highly accomplished knowledgable and skilled. We enjoyed some spectacular sightings. The food is plentiful and varied. Although outside of the park the pontoon to cross the river into the park is close therefore this is merely a slight detriment. Highly recommend and when in Zambia again I will certainly return. Thank you for a great stay wish it were longer!

We arrived at the lodge and were greeted by Borniface, the lodge manager. He was extremely welcoming and showed us around the lodge and rooms. We were also served a delicious welcome drink. All the staff at Mopani are very helpful and go out of their way to make you feel as comfortable as possible. We stayed in the lagoon facing rooms, and i must say they are spectacular! Beautiful, clean and spacious, and you can see many animals come to the lagoon to drink water. Such an amazing sight, just sitting from your room and viewing the animals, meters away from the room veranda. We saw elephants, kudu, impalas, baboons, warthogs, girrafes and were also lucky enough to spot a lioness feeding on a buffalo at the lagoon! We went for 3 game drives and a walking safari with our highly knowledgeable guide Mr Brian. He gave us a brief history about the park, animals and flora and fauna indigenous to south luangwa. Highlights of our game drive was when we requested Mr Brian to see the Carmine bee eater birds. He went out of his way to show us the birds. Fabulous sighting! He knew exactly how to navigate the park and we sighted lions twice on the game drives. We were also lucky to spot the endangered African wilddogs. Such a rare sighting! Coming on to the food, it was prepared freshly keeping in mind any dietary restrictions we mentioned. Hats off to the chef for preparing such delicious food everyday. I always looked forward to lunch and dinner as the food was just amazing! Some snacks were also provided during the game drive, where we would stop inside the park at a safe location and eat with views of the beautiful trees and birds. On the whole, i really had exceptional experience at mopani and it is luxury at its best! Affordable and great for Bush and Safari lovers! Will definitely visit again soon

You are greeted by amazing and friendly staff members who make your stay even more comfy and relaxed. The lodge and its location really complement each other and you get a beautiful view of the river which brings many animals to see. I had a great time, wished I could have stayed longer but very grateful for the overall experience, it was time well spent.

Nestled in the heart of south luangwa by the river. Even though the lodge is just a couple of minutes outside the park, it is surrounded by all the animals of the national park. Whilst at the lodge, we were frequently visited by elephants and giraffe! Often felt our entire game viewing experience could be done whilst sitting in the open plan dining area. The rooms are beautifully made up and the aircon was a saviour in the peak of summer. Our family made full use of the pool which is the perfect size. The staff at the lodge are absolutely amazing, always going the extra mile and above and beyond their duties to make us feel comfortable! Having laundry inclusive was absolutely fantastic, especially with four kids! We have thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Mopani and would definitely return in the future.
