Tintswalo Siankaba in Zambia has completed a significant upgrade to its lodge facilities, now featuring air-conditioning in all guest suites. In addition to refurbishing the original swimming pool and sundeck overlooking the Zambezi River, the lodge has also introduced a second swimming pool for guests to enjoy.
Located on two lush, forested islands, Tintswalo Siankaba provides a tranquil and secluded natural setting worlds away from the bustle of everyday life. The intimate tented camp offers an authentic, immersive African experience that presents enriching activities that showcase the beauty and cultural richness of the region through connecting with the local community.
The lodge accommodates just 14 guests in seven elevated tented suites, each carefully positioned in the canopy of the trees overlooking the river. Built to blend into the environment with minimal impact, the two islands and suites are connected by suspension bridges and a raised walkway which winds through the forest, allowing guests to move about safely while preserving the fragile ecosystem below.
Tintswalo Siankaba offers a wide array of activities designed to connect guests with nature and local culture. On-site, guests can enjoy fishing excursions, Mokoro (traditional canoe) boat trips, sunset cruises, and guided nature walks through the island forest. These educational walks offer insights into the indigenous flora, including several tree species known for their medicinal properties. For a deeper cultural experience, guests can participate in a community tour to learn about the nearby village and local traditions.
Just 38 kilometers from Victoria Falls and 48 kilometers from Chobe National Park, TintswaloSiankaba is also ideally situated for guests eager to explore the top attractions in the region.
