Your Adventure<\/strong>
At the Lodge: Begin with two nights at Mutemwa, fishing the productive waters nearby while enjoying riverside comfort and warm hospitality.

Journey to Ngonye Falls: Travel 80 km upriver with expert guides, stopping at renowned Tigerfish hotspots. Boats are stocked with picnic lunches and cooler boxes for full days on the water.

Beach Camping: Spend two nights camping on pristine white-sand beaches inside Ngonye Falls National Park. Bow tents provide cozy shelter, while evenings are spent dining under the stars beside a campfire.

Fishing the Gorge: The highlight is casting below Ngonye Falls \u2014 the Zambezi\u2019s second-largest waterfall. Its deep channels and powerful rapids create prime conditions for trophy-sized Tigerfish.

Exploration & Return: Visit the falls, swim in refreshing pools, then fish downstream back to Mutemwa Lodge for a final night of riverside relaxation.

Access Options<\/strong>
Fly-In: Scheduled flights to Livingstone or Kasane, followed by a 45-minute charter in a Cessna Caravan (up to 8 passengers).
