The Lodge at the Ancient City provides the perfect location from which to explore the Great Zimbabwe. The impressive stone and thatch lounge is set high upon a granite outcrop with huge boulders forming the main part of the overall architecture. Meal times may vary depending on the game drives and the season but usually are a set time. All meals at the lodge are table d'hôte with a broad selection of dishes and are served in the thatched dining hall or open air summerhouse, depending on the season. Just as the legendary people of the Kingdom of Munhumuatapa welcomed people into their homes with an open hand of friendship, so too does the same warm friendly welcome await you.
