As the facilities are primarily focused towards our lodge guests, we can only take day trip bookings when we have availability in the lodge. This means we cannot take advance bookings for day trips. If you would like to book a day trip it is best to contact the Chumbe office two days before the day you would like to visit to check on availability. The office can be reached on:
