ZAMBIA SAFARI:
The Bushcamp Company

Zambia has vast areas of protected wilderness and an unspoiled nature that makes it a favourite with travellers searching for the “Real Africa”. The legendary David Livingstone first discovered Victoria Falls from here and the town of Livingstone is a shrine to his memory. The Luangwa Valley is home to a huge variety of mammals, bird life and large numbers of antelope and is renowned for walking safaris. The lower Zambezi offers walks, game drives and canoeing safaris. In the northern part of the country lies the Kafue National Park; one of the world’s largest, with a diverse landscape and just about every kind of animal except giraffe is found here.

Kuyenda Bushcamp

This camp is nestled amongst shady trees on the banks of the Manzi River housing four authentic thatched rondavels containing large spacious beds, mosquito netting and en-suite facilities including a shower, toilet and wash basin. The central dining area lounge and bar overlook a grassy plain with abundant wildlife where the drama of wild Africa is your stage.

To walk amongst Africa's big and small game in an untamed area, with the security of an expert naturalist and armed guard dramatically heightens the senses and creates exciting experiences not possible in a vehicle.

The walking opportunities are fantastic with all camps in the south of the park within walking distance of each other. Stay in 4 different types of bushcamp whilst experiencing the thrill of the traditional walking safari.

All camps are ideal for small groups seeking a heightened personalised wilderness experience, fantastic hospitality and greater opportunities to explore this magnificent wildlife sanctuary on foot.

 

Chamilandu Bushcamp

Comfort, class and beauty is provided by Chamilandu bushcamp in one of the Luangwa Valleys prime remote river locations. The 2m-high tree house chalets are elegantly designed with a tasteful blend of  modern classic decor and provide a birds eye view over the waters of the Luangwa River and Chindeni Hills. A series of 7 oxbow lagoons yield a diversity of wildlife while expert guides offer guests the chance to walk as Livingstone once did--among pristine untouched Africa.

Open to a 180 degree vista, the front of each tree house provides the exciting frame for all of Luangwa Valley's diversity.  The four poster beds enjoy a birds eye view over the waters of the Luangwa River and the abundant riverine wildlife that has made the valley famous.

 

Bilimungwe Bushcamp

This cool and comfortable camp is set beneath magnificent Mahogany trees on the edge of a small plain. Four reed and thatch chalets with en-suite shower, toilet and double vanities, a rustic dining area and fully stocked bar are constructed on raised decking with views of Bilimungwe's permanent water hole and abundant game. Bilimungwe trails camp is nestled in riverine forest along the picturesque banks of the Luangwa River.

 

Chindeni Bushcamp

Chindeni is situated on the edge of a permanent lagoon with the Chindeni Hills as a magnificent backdrop. Raised on wooden decking, Chindeni's 4 en-suite luxury tents have private decks from which you can view the resident big game or simply enjoy the serenity of the lagoon. Each tent has 2 queen-sized beds, hot and cold running water, shower, toilet, double vanities and polished floors.

The camp nestles on the apex of a permanent oxbow lagoon, offset by the magnificent Nchendeni Hills. This is the ideal spot for both the avid and intrepid Game spotter as well as the more sedentary visitors who wish to observe nature at it's best without too much personal effort. Raised on wooden decking, Chindeni's four en-suite tents provide the same luxury features as Bilimungwe. Each tent has its own raised veranda from which to view the resident game and enjoy the serene yet breathtaking tranquility of the vast lagoon, from a vantage point of relative safety. Kilometers from Bilimungwe, an early morning walk between the camps will provide an ideal opportunity to enjoy two of the trails camps in one stay.  

 

Kapamba Bushcamp

Situated in a prime location on the picturesque Kapamba River , the lodge offers the chance to enjoy this untouched corner of the National Park in luxurious surroundings. The well-positioned half-moon deck is the focal point of the camp and serves as both the dining and bar area. Overlooking the Kapamba River , the deck offers an ideal viewing point for the abundant wildlife that comes to drink at the river. Each of the camp’s four chalets is individually designed to offer stunning views of the river, with the open-fronted style ensuring you can enjoy uninterrupted game viewing from the privacy of your own room. The en-suite bathrooms each have a double-sized sunken stone bath and spacious shower and are open-fronted. Solar-panelled lighting, paraffin lanterns and hot and cold running water ensure you won’t have to forgo any level of comfort despite being in a remote and unspoilt location.
