This is a truly stunning lodge, and a superb base from which to explore the renowned South Luangwa National Park. The lodge is set on the banks of the Luangwa River, so guests arrive at the lodge by boat and enjoy stunning river views from all parts of the property. The enormous bush villas retain a wild, colonial feel, with huge decking areas complete with private pool and sitting area. The game viewing here is fantastic, with Leopard sightings being particularly good. It is also one of the best places in Africa to enjoy walking safaris.

The camp comprises only six spacious luxury safari tents on raised platforms that lead onto large balconies with breathtaking views of the surrounding plains. All the elegantly decorated tents are en suite and include an indoor and outdoor shower. The remote location of the camp makes for excellent game viewing, especially for the endangered Wild Dog who are prevalent in the areas without Lion. We will also include an early morning Hot Air Balloon flight over the park - a stunning way to start any day.
You will be able to enjoy your morning game drive this morning before being transferred to the airstrip for your flight down to Livingstone. You will be met at the airport and transferred up to Toka Leya, where you will be spending the final 3 nights of your trip.
