Welcome to The David Livingstone Safari Lodge & Spa
The infinity pool here is nothing short of legendary — offering uninterrupted views of the mighty Zambezi River and the surrounding wilderness. During high-water months, it’s been known to attract some curious local visitors! In fact, staff have occasionally had to line the pool’s edge with sandbags to keep hippos from wandering in — a true reminder that you’re in the heart of wild Zambia. Keep an eye out for crocs too… it’s all part of the “Croc Watch” charm that makes this riverside retreat so unforgettable.
