Kapamba Bushcamp

Set on the banks of the shallow Kapamba River, Kapamba Bushcamp is surrounded by some of the South Luangwa National Park’s richest wildlife.

The camp has just four chalets – two twins and two doubles with queen and king sized beds respectively – which open out large private verandas with fabulous views. Each has are also twin showers and sunken plunge pool sized bathtub and wrought iron shutters that let in the sights and sounds of the bush while keeping out unwanted visitors during the night.

There’s a central bar and dining room under a huddle of matumi and sausage trees, with a wide deck from which to watch the world go by and elephants drink in the river. And if that’s still not close enough for you, why not enjoy a G&T from the middle of the river itself, feet dipped in the cool, crystal shallows.

Get out into the bush and explore the rich diversity of the surrounding area by jumping into a Land Rover for a game drives day and night, or head out on foot for an intimate walking safari.
