Wherever we travel we make an effort to mingle with the Staff and we were excited that would share. From family to school to traditional customs, it was great. The setting of the Lodge is... More

What an amazing time we had at Kasaka! The friendliest, most flexible safari lodge and ideally placed for the Lower Zambezi Game Reserve. Nothing is too much trouble and staff are extremely helpful. Fod is good and Royal airstrip is 5 minutes away. Guides are very knowledgeable. The settings for wildlife are stunning and we have many wonderful photos -... More

Wonderful place at the Zambezi ! Superb service and care for the guests. Stunning activities such as game drives in the park, boat cruising, walks... Chalets are on the "wild side" and the normal side. We stayed at the wild side - elephants and hippos in the night ... Reachable by air or road (if someone wants real adventure) Always... More
