Guests are greeted at Lusaka International Airport, Zambia and flown by private air-taxi to Jeki Airstrip in Lower Zambezi National Park. Cool drinks and snacks will be offered before a Bush drive which will almost certainly provide viewing opportunities close up of Elephant, Giraffe, Lion and much more.

On arrival at the family owned and operated, multi-award-winning Chiawa Camp, guests will be given a full safety briefing, be introduced to the team and settled into their accommodation.

Relax, swim in the pool, dine on fine food prepared by the Camp’s acclaimed kitchen brigade and enjoy the amazing sunset. After cocktails and dinner, there is time to sit around the fire and chat with other guests and the guides.

An early start today. Guests will spend the day canoeing on the mighty Zambezi River. Unlike other parts, the flow here is calm, with an abundance of wildlife both in the water and on the river banks.

You will canoe downstream with the Chiawa Camp river-guides,  exploring narrow channels between the many river islets.

Lunch will be prepared and awaiting your arrival on one of the deserted islands, before you continue to Amanzi Tented Camp on the banks of the Ngwenya channel, for dinner and a good night’s sleep.

Today, guests will take an all-day guided walk through the Bush – approximately 12 kilometres.  The final destination is actually only 3 kilometres, in a straight line, however we feel the 'scenic' route is well worth the time.

A walking safari is as much a state of mind as a physical experience. The trappings of western life left far behind, guests experience an intimacy with the wilderness, understand how wildlife live their lives – with the flexibility to track across terrain to approach big game and investigate small insects close up. Sounds ordinarily drowned out by the motor engine become important, along with the aromas normally masked by diesel. With feet on the ground, you can synchronise with the rhythm of nature.

The leisurely pace will be punctuated with breaks for morning coffee and afternoon tea, and a waiter serviced lunch, set in a spectacular, shaded clearing. The walk ends at Anabezi Camp – a true gem, built as the Governor's retreat when the area was a British colony.

View the majesty of the river from your private deck and pool as the sun retreats for the day, before enjoying an exquisite fine-dining dinner and all the pleasures an award-winning river camp can offer.

Take the opportunity to sleep in late, enjoy a full brunch, spend time around the Anabezi Camp quizzing the guides on their bushcraft knowledge, and relaxing.

Start the evening with an early dinner taken on your private deck, before preparing for a night drive through the bush to the exclusive Sausage Tree Camp.

Exploring Africa after dark brings new experiences – unique bush encounters from Leopard and Wild Dogs on the hunt for their own dinner, and grazing Hippos to Chameleons, glowing Scorpions, and the tart smelling night flowers of the Baobab tree.  A treat for all the senses all under the vast, starry African night-sky.

Guests will arrive at Sausage Tree Camp in the early hours of the morning, be served with snacks and nightcaps before settling into their luxury accommodation – the epitome of 'bush chic' with lavish attention to detail and voted top in the list of 'Ten Best Luxury Destinations’.

Rise later in the morning, enjoy a leisurely breakfast and the day is yours.

The guides will be pleased to take you back on the river in a motor boat to cast a line and endeavour to land the notorious Tigerfish, spend time exploring camp or take a 4x4 drive to attempt more Big 5 sightings.

Lunch will be served on the river, in the Bush or in Camp – whatever your wish. Dinner can be at the hosted camp table or you will be welcome to opt for a romantic candle-lit table for two on your private deck.
