"Waterberry Zambezi Lodge review"
Rooms fairly basic but had everything that you need and were spotless clean" See all these reviews: 3n in Zambia
"Nice Lodge, but not for one night stay."
The food was fussy and hugely disappointing, considering we'd just come from bush camping with wonderful food this was a real letdown. They didn't manage to deal with my vegan dietary requirements properly (again, I wouldn't be complaining about this had it not been for the fact the other more remote camps were great) and even the omnivores didn't enjoy their meals.
I think on balance this would be a better place to stay for a few nights to take advantage of everything they have to offer and enjoy the beautiful location." See all these reviews: 9n in Botswana; 6n in Zambia
"4th camp at Waterberry"
Visit to Victoria Falls was amazing - helicopter ride is a must. Visit to the 4 villages was fascinating - Webby was our guide and very informative. Great that Waterberry Zambezi Lodge supports the community schools in the area.
Would be good to direct visitors to the Waterberry Zambezi Lodge website before their visit to view the list of needs for the projects - we would have taken some items out if we had known." See all these reviews: 8n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia

"Great way to start our trip!"
Our room was very comfortable & the staff was wonderful. They surprised my husband with a belated birthday cake since this was his 40th birthday trip!
We also loved the sunset river boat cruise & of course, the tour of Victoria Falls!" See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 4n in Malawi
"A pleasant stay at Waterberry Zambezi Lodge"
The room was located on the river with a great view, cold so appreciated the electric blanket. Bedroom was quite small with just enough room for bed and mosquito net. Bathroom great with a big bath.
Service was friendly welcoming and efficient. Food was plentiful and too good.
The activities were well organised with great guides. Good advice on using new Zim/Zam visa to also visit the Zimbabwe side of falls and have afternoon tea at Victoria Falls Hotel. Great river cruises and other excursions.
The gardens and pool were pleasant and well maintained" See all these reviews: 21n in Zambia
"Waterberry Zambezi Lodge review"
The owner made it her business to introduce herself to us and clearly helped to iron out any potential problems behind the scenes. When our Rhino Walk is Mosi-oa-Tunya exceeded its anticipated length, she efficiently made arrangements for our helicopter trip over Victoria Falls to be re-scheduled."

"Great place to start our African trip"
"Waterberry Zambezi Lodge review"
The last evening's river trip or "booze cruise" as it was referred to by the owner and her friends who joined us in the boat having just arrived from the UK was most entertaining and enjoyable!" See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia
