Gorongosa Safaris - Muzimu Lodge

Set in one of Africa’s most remote and remarkable wilderness areas, Muzimu Lodge offers a rare and exclusive safari experience in Gorongosa National Park. This is one of just two camps within over one million acres of protected land, where guests have unparalleled access to a region celebrated for its ecological diversity and groundbreaking conservation work. Positioned above the Mussicadzi River and surrounded by floodplains and riverine forest, Muzimu is the flagship lodge of Turismo da Gorongosa and provides the perfect base from which to explore this iconic park.

What sets Muzimu apart, beyond its extraordinary setting, is the warmth and professionalism of its team. From the moment guests arrive, they are welcomed with heartfelt hospitality and cared for by a group of passionate individuals who take pride in creating meaningful, personalised experiences. Whether arranging a surprise bush dinner or sharing insights on the park’s wildlife and ecosystems, the team goes above and beyond to make each stay unforgettable.

The lodge features six spacious tented suites, each with an en-suite bathroom and private deck offering sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness. The rooms are designed for comfort and privacy, while still embracing the natural beauty of the park. Solar power and sustainable materials reflect Muzimu’s commitment to conservation without compromising on quality.

Days are shaped around exploration and connection, with expertly guided game drives, walks, and birding excursions revealing the park’s rich tapestry of life. Gorongosa is home to a wide range of species, including lion, elephant, painted wolf, and more than 500 bird species, as well as a growing population of reintroduced wildlife. Every outing is tailored to guests’ interests, and the guiding team’s knowledge and enthusiasm bring the park’s stories vividly to life.

Back at camp, dining is relaxed yet refined, with meals served on the deck overlooking the river or under a canopy of stars. Fresh, seasonal ingredients are prepared with care, and the attentive service makes every meal feel special. For those seeking privacy or something more adventurous, bush dinners and private dining options are also available. 

Muzimu is more than just a safari lodge — it is a gateway into one of Africa’s most inspiring conservation stories. A stay here directly supports the Gorongosa Project’s mission to restore and protect this once-devastated ecosystem through a pioneering model that places local communities at the centre of conservation. It’s a place where luxury meets purpose, where the wild is thriving once again, and where an exceptional team ensures that every guest leaves transformed by the experience.
