Experience the Wilderness of Africa on the Zambezi river.

Muyu Camp is located on the banks of the Zambezi River in one of the wildest and most remote parts of Africa in the Dande Conservancy in north eastern Zimbabwe.

Muyu Camp is an exclusive use photographic safari lodge for up to 12 guests  in 6 rooms with commanding views over the Zambezi river framed by game rich islands.

At Muyu, your time is your own as you decide when to head out on a walk or on a river cruise  to go game viewing, birdwatching or  fishing. Or simply spend your day in the comfort of a soft couch in the lodge watching the river flow by.

What we love about Muyu

  • The laid back and relaxed  environment of  open plan  lounge and dining areas that overlook the river and the pool.
  • The rooms are furnished to a very comfortable standard with top quality linen, beds and towels with all of the amenities that you need. Overhead fans cool the rooms in summer and have a private veranda that overlook the river.
  • Laundry is done daily.
  • Waking to the sound of the birds and the resident Fish Eagle calling.
  • Drifting off to sleep to the grunt of the hippos and call of the Pels Fishing Owls that are regularly sighted at Muyu.
  • Peter, the resident chef prepares excellent home style meals such as roasts, fresh fish and braais. Fresh bread is baked daily.
  • Elephant, buffalo, waterbuck, hippo and crocodiles are prolific in the area with elephant  and buffalo frequently crossing the river to graze on the vegetation rich islands that Muyu overlooks.
  • Cruising down the Zambezi bird watching and spotting hippos and crocodiles whilst sipping on an ice cold G&T or stopping off on a sandy river bank for sundowners.
  • The early morning sunlight and the beautiful sunsets and the lingering orange glow after sunset.
  • The beautiful views from the swimming pool to the river and islands beyond.
  • Sitting around the camp fire under a huge ancient Boabab tree.
