Our Yellow Zebra Opinion
-
Indulgent and iconic
Luangwa Safari House is a truly unique property where huge herds of elephants are seen from the pier. Great views from the two top rooms too!
Activities
Game viewing
Day and night drives
-
The game viewing is also excellent, especially elephant, as they tend to come to this area for food and drink. Guests can be dining outside on the deck in the dry season and find up to forty elephants around them.
Day drives, night drives and walking safaris are all available.
*This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.
Facilities & Amenities
The front door is massive and opens onto a vast lounge.
There are four extremely comfortable suites, decorated in completely different styles – the two on the upper floor have suspended wooden balconies, while the two on the first floor have private verandas. Outside, there is a small plunge pool, and a terrace from which a raised walkway links to a wooden deck in the middle of the lagoon where guests can sit and watch any passing game.
The house comes with its own butler, chef and guide, so every detail can be planned around the group’s individual requirements – the menu and timing of meals, the schedule for game drives and so on. Guests are totally spoiled!
