Intimate safari camp positioned on the eastern bank of Zambia’s Luangwa River.
The camp features just five elegantly appointed tents for luxurious comfort and privacy, with interiors that boast natural tones and local, naturally sourced materials.
Each of the tents includes an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub, shower, and double vanities finished with brass and copper, as well as a private wooden deck with spellbinding views.
Enjoy exquisite communal dining with views over the river.
Take a refreshing dip in the camp’s swimming pool and spend evenings in the boma area around a crackling fire.
Embark on a “silent safari” in one of the camp’s electric Land Cruisers to get up close to some of Africa’s most iconic creatures.
We recommend combining a Zambian escape with a trip to Zimbabwe.

Best Time To Travel
The best time to visit Zambia is during the dry season between June and November, ideal for walking safaris and wildlife sightings. To see Victoria Falls flowing at its greatest volume, visit between April and June after the rainy season; this is the best time for a helicopter flight over the falls. For white water rafting and access to Devil's Pool, visit between September to November when the water levels are lower.
