Aptly named Royal Airstrip, our 1.8km tarred airstrip is only a 5-10 minute drive from the lodge and can often be the platform for your first sighting into camp, whether it be a baboon, impala or elephant you are sure to receive a unique welcome to the Lower Zambezi.

To make getting here even more accessible, we offer a RZL FLIGHT (Low Season Rates / High Season Rates) “seat in plane” charter option that has been planned around set times for departure and arrival. Royal Zambezi Lodge has contracted these flights to our various charter partners in Zambia.
