About Gorongosa Safaris - Muzimu Lodge

Muzimu Lodge is one of just two camps in more than one million acres of untouched wilderness, offering guests unrivalled access to Gorongosa National Park, a biodiversity hotspot at the southern end of Africa’s Great Rift Valley. Set along the banks of the Mussicadzi River, this intimate safari camp is the flagship property of Turismo da Gorongosa and provides a luxurious base from which to explore one of Africa’s most ecologically rich and diverse landscapes. From the moment guests arrive, the warm, welcoming team ensures every detail is taken care of, delivering attentive and intuitive service that elevates the entire experience.

With only six beautifully appointed tented suites, each with a private deck and en-suite bathroom, Muzimu promises an exclusive and immersive safari. The passionate and highly skilled team goes above and beyond, offering personalised guiding and genuine hospitality that connects guests to the park’s extraordinary wildlife and powerful conservation story in a truly meaningful way.

Accommodation Options

East African Style Canvas Tents

Raised above the ground and discreetly positioned along the riverbank, Muzimu Lodge’s six tented suites are designed in classic East African style, offering a quiet, elegant retreat after a day in the bush. Each canvas tent opens onto a private timber deck with views of the surrounding landscape. Inside, king-sized beds (twin available), fine linens, en-suite bathrooms, ceiling fans, in room wifi and thoughtful touches ensure comfort without excess. Simplicity here is intentional, allowing the beauty of Gorongosa to take centre stage, while every detail — from the filtered light to the soft sounds of nature — contributes to a sense of serenity and connection.

Dining & Cuisine

Dining at Muzimu Lodge

Meals at Muzimu are enjoyed on the deck area, offering panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness. Guests can also choose from unique bush dinner experiences or private dining options for a more intimate setting. Our chefs prepare gourmet dishes from scratch using fresh, locally sourced ingredients whenever possible. Special dietary needs are gladly accommodated upon request. Throughout your stay, delight in homemade treats served before morning drives, enjoy soothing afternoon teas, and savor delicious snacks during sundowners. Long, lazy brunches provide the perfect opportunity to relax and soak in the surroundings at your own pace. The full-board package includes all meals, local house drinks, soft beverages, purified drinking water, tea, and coffee — so you can fully immerse yourself in the safari experience without worrying about extras.
