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.

About the Tinswalo Collection

The Tintswalo Collection comprises of six family-owned and managed properties situated in five unique locations, stretching from the beach to the bush, across Southern Africa. Perched oceanside on a pebbled beach at the foot of Chapmans Peak, the award-winning boutique hotel, Tintswalo Atlantic is surrounded by the Table Mountain National Park, and is renowned as one of Cape Town’s most precious hidden gems.

In Simon’s Town on the southern side of the Cape Peninsula, Tintswalo Boulders is located on Boulders Beach with views across the world-famous colony of endangered African penguins. Sharing an unfenced boundary with the Kruger National Park, Tintswalo Safari is hidden within the pristine Manyeleti Private Nature Reserve, known for some of the best game viewing in South Africa. In the same private concession, Tintswalo Manor offers a, fully-catered private lodge for families or small groups seeking a tailor-made stay on an exclusive-use basis.

Only three hours’ drive from Johannesburg, Tintswalo Waterberg is a comfortable family-friendly or corporate safari retreat within Limpopo’s malaria-free Welgevonden Game Reserve. In Zambia, TintswaloSiankaba presents an authentic African adventure with tented accommodation on two small, private islands in the mighty Zambezi River.
