The best accommodations Lower Zambezi National Park

Cited as one of the most beautiful lodges in Africa, the Sausage Tree has abandoned the traditional safari tents for vast Bedouin tents with open-air bathrooms. Inside; more classic African teak wood furniture. The Sausage Tree is so exclusive that each guest has a radio and a butler. The table is gourmet and lunches are organized at the water's edge. It is not uncommon to see an elephant or a buffalo pass by while lounging in the pool. Can be combined with the Potato Bush Camp nearby.

The 6 stone and thatched huts are scattered along the Zambezi River, shaded by mango and bougainvillea trees. The colors of the fabrics and batiks contrast with the whiteness of the walls, the natural materials are used in an elegant Afro style. Also; a family house with three suites. The restaurant has a real pizza oven. Turquoise infinity pool overlooking the Zambezi River. On site: boating, canoeing, safari, fishing... You can visit the school that the lodge has built and which houses 60 students.

Mondoro means "lion" in the Shona language, as legend has it that an old white lion once made his home here. This real bush camp is located in the heart of the park and is often used as a complement to a stay at Chiawa Camp. The quality of the services is just as exceptional, but the structures are more rustic, because here we dive into the wild bush, which is very rich in wildlife. The eight tents have a very simple furniture, they are lit with lanterns and the showers are with buckets of hot water on demand. A little extra adventure!

This lodge is located on the other side of the park, where the Luangwa River defines its eastern boundary, 20 km from Luangwa village and near the fabulous Mpata Gorge. The large garden with trees is pleasant, but the interior of the chalets lacks character and is more reminiscent of a hotel room than a bush lodge. This address is recommended for fishing enthusiasts. Interesting cultural visits can be organized in the surrounding villages as well as at the Mozambican border, a historical place infamous for the slave trade.

The lodge is extremely well located on the banks of the Zambezi outside the park but only 10 minutes from the entrance. Very luxurious. It has safari tents (deluxe, presidential or family) decorated with wood and light colors. Each with an incredible plunge pool facing the Zambezi. The Sausage Tree bar is nestled in the branches of a huge tree, while the infinity pool faces the wet, open banks where the animals drink. Between game drives, walking safaris, canoeing and tiger fishing, you can relax at the spa.
