I've struggled to find a description of my experience here that suffices to capture its effect on me. The closest I've come is the word "Transformative". You will not be the same after you've experienced this place. First, you just don't find places like this with hosts as hospitable, knowledgeable, and generous. I learned about birds, insects, fish, crocs, hippos, rivers, and even how to control the direction a boat drifts downstream. The Zambezi is absolutely awe inspiring. There's so much life to see on its banks. Sunsets showed me colours I've never seen, birds and insects made sounds I've never heard, I got so close to some of the most dangerous creatures in the world, and saw cultures and people who've found such a harmony with all of it that I gained a new appreciation for the pleasure and privileges I enjoy at home. None of that even touches on the adrenaline and rush that comes with catching that first Tiger Fish. All I want to do is go back....

What an awesome stay, the service of Johann and Nadia as well as interesting chats, the staff, the food, the view, the experience is way above 5 star! This has been the best experience that my family and I have had in a very long time at a lodge. Nothing was to big or small for the team at Kubu and Kwena. Food portions are huge and very very tasty. So would recommend supporting the restuarant. The Tiger Fishing with Sam as our guide was an amazing experience, thanks Sam. Lucy in reception thank you so much for all your happy conversation’s as well as your professional service. Thanks to each and every one of you for making our experience one to remember. See you again in 2025 for another...
