We Have News: A Proud First for Zambia - And for Royal Zambezi Lodge

We are honoured to share that Royal Zambezi Lodge is the first Zambian company to be accepted into The Long Run, a membership organisation supporting a global community of purpose-driven tourism businesses working to accelerate positive impact through the 4Cs: Conservation, Community, Culture, and Commerce.

From the ground up, our commitment to sustainability shapes everything we do. At Royal Zambezi Lodge, we don’t just create unforgettable safaris, we safeguard the very wilderness that makes them possible. Through The Long Run’s 4Cs framework, we align our daily actions with purpose:

Conservation: Protecting wildlife and wilderness through responsible practices and long-term partnerships.

Community: Creating opportunity through employment, training, and education that build resilience.

Culture: Celebrating Zambia’s heritage and sharing it meaningfully with every guest.

Commerce: Sustaining a business that preserves our landscapes and livelihoods for generations to come.

It is a privilege to stand alongside other leading lodges worldwide who are using tourism as a force for good, and we look forward to continuing this journey of meaningful stewardship together.

Travel with intention. Travel with impact. Travel with us.
