Caprivi River Lodge is a relaxed riverside lodge on Ngoma Road in Katima Mulilo, set on the banks of the Zambezi with self-contained chalets a short drive from the town centre.
Location and Zambezi access
The lodge’s riverbank position on Ngoma Road gives it direct Zambezi frontage while remaining within reach of Katima Mulilo’s amenities, making it a comfortable base for river time as well as onward travel towards the Ngoma crossing, Chobe or the western conservancies. It occupies a middle ground between the in-town guesthouses and the remote bush lodges further west, offering a river setting without a long drive off the main road.
Accommodation and facilities
The rate here is for an entire Standard Chalet on a room-only basis, with lunch available as an optional add-on rather than a mandatory meal plan, which keeps the price down for travellers who prefer to eat in town or self-cater some meals. The lodge has a swimming pool, a restaurant and bar, river views and canoeing on the Zambezi, along with free WiFi, free parking and family-friendly room options.
Who this property may suit
Caprivi River Lodge suits couples and families who want their own riverside chalet and the freedom of a room-only rate, with the option to add meals or a canoe outing on the Zambezi rather than paying for a fixed board basis they may not use.
Planning your Zambezi stay
With canoeing on the doorstep and the river running past the chalets, it rewards a two-night stay rather than a quick overnight, and its easy access from the main road makes it a low-effort way to add genuine river time to a driving trip.
