Accommodation
Our Authentic South Luangwa lodges
South Luangwa lodges rank among the most authentic and remotely-set safari accommodations in southern Africa. Ranging from thatched lodges with sumptuous suites to candle-lit tented camps, lodges in the South Luangwa have matured over the years into eco-sensitive and beautifully designed camps with as much comfort and convenience as you need.
Several lodges are extremely small and intimate – perfect for honeymooners – while others are suitable for families and groups of friends. Activities at lodges focus on game drives and walks, and you’ll be in the hands of some of the best guides in the business. Lodges located outside the park are able to offer extra activities like boating, night drives and cultural tours. Note that some lodges have been designed as accommodation for extended walking safaris; these seasonal camps are basic but very comfortable and you’ll have a private shower and toilet.

Chamilandu Bushcamp
In Short: Walking safaris and game drives around Chamilandu
Location: South Luangwa, Zambia
There are just three stilted chalets at this exclusive camp, overlooking the Luangwa River. Each has its own raised veranda to loll on during the heat of the day, and an open-fronted en-suite bathroom with the same magnificent views over the tranquil waters. The black mosquito nets seem to disappear when you look through them, and there's nothing quite like showering under the stars and the grove of ebony trees surrounding you. The hide overlooks a watering hole frequented by a wide variety of wildlife. Chamilandu is open from June to November and has capacity for just six guests.
