Exploration by foot
Experiencing the bush
-
The simple bush camp holds a maximum of four guests and focuses on exploring the Nsefu sector of the South Luangwa by foot.
Guests have an unbeatable experience of the bush with one of Robin Pope’s finest guides.
*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
All tents come with a mattress on the ground, sheets and bedding, while the 60-liter bucket shower and bush loo are communal.
Meals are enjoyed around the campfire or under the stars.
