The Lodge
Nunda River Lodge
Nunda River Lodge stands on the Okavango River at Divundu, in the homeland of the Hambukushu people. Nunda is the Thimbukushu name for the fruit of the jackalberry tree.
There are seven large twin Meru tents on wooden decks and eight thatched twin bungalows, all with covered decks over the river, as well as four thatched chalets set back from the water and a campsite. The lodge has a licensed restaurant and a pool.
Nunda borders Bwabwata National Park, so game drives, a boat cruise to Popa Falls, birding, fishing and cultural visits are all close at hand. We suggest staying at least two nights.
