Accommodation Photos

Stay at Old Mondoro

Old Mondoro, set in the banks of the Zambezi Rivers, is characterised by vast flood plains and open woodland, creating outstanding game viewing opportunities. Known for its simple luxury, superb home-cooked meals served in the open-sided thatched dining room, and excellent guiding levels, Old Mondoro is a unique ‘back to the bush’ experience.

Wildlife activity can be observed from the comfort of the lodge, primarily with elephant and hippo viewings, or guests can bring their senses alive with the lodge’s walking safaris, and get to know the ‘real’ Africa.

The team at True Travel had a simple brief: to send us on the world’s best family safari. As soon as our boat headed down the Zambezi, it all kicked off; we passed a herd of hippos, a lazy crocodile and a giraffe drinking nonchalantly on the riverbank. A magical experience from beginning to end. Nothing was too much trouble and if we had any issue that needed resolving, there was always someone on hand to do this. Before and after, they were off the charts – simply an awesome team.
