Chinzombo Camp
South Luangwa National Park
South Luangwa is an unspoiled wilderness. The Luangwa River and its ox-bow lagoons has the most intense concentration of hippos and crocodiles in Africa as well as over sixty species of mammals and over four hundred species of birds. This is one of the best parks to see leopard as well as the resurgence of wild dog, and is home to three endemic species – the Thornicroft Giraffe, Cookson’s Wildebeest and Crawshay’s Zebra. With private, direct access into one of the densest game rich areas of the National Park, Chinzombo truly is a unique and exclusive camp for the most discerning of travelers. The camp is situated on sixty acres of private land with Luangwa River frontage. This riverside location teems with wildlife. Chinzombo is ultra-luxurious and brings levels of comfort, style and elegance previously unseen to the Luangwa Valley. Huge ancient shade trees offer peace and tranquility when staying in any one of the six stunning villas, one of which is a family suite with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Each villa has its own private pool built into the deck area, cooled sleeping areas and a massive bathroom. An onsite Spa offers a wide range of hand-made treatments and….
massages in the privacy of your villa. Be bold and consider a ‘sleep out’ experience under the stars in the spectacular and extremely remote Luwi dry river bed. Fall asleep under the magnificent African sky to the sounds of whooping hyenas and roaring lions whilst a guide and scout keep watch. No tent - just a bed roll and a mosquito net!
