Sausage Tree Camp, Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia
A Luxury Tented Camp in Zambia
Camp Details
The pinnacle of bush chic, Sausage Tree Camp was established in 1996 as Zambia’s most luxurious bush camp. It is still one of the few camps in Africa that guarantees private guiding.
Sausage Tree Camp was voted number one on the BBC Holiday Programme’s “Ten Best Luxury Destinations”. Our location within the Lower Zambezi National Park allows our team to offer truly immersive safari experiences, not only on land by four-wheel game-viewing vehicles, but also on foot and even by boat or canoe. And with expert private guides and “Muchindas” (butlers) to see to your every need, you can be assured of world-class service.
WHY CHOOSE SAUSAGE TREE CAMP?
- Sausage Tree Camp offers some of the finest game viewing in natural habitats anywhere in Africa.
- A full day canoe trip, stopping for a picnic lunch en-route is an unbeatable safari experience.
- Scenic boat cruises are a very relaxing way to view the game that comes down to the river to drink and bathe, whilst also taking in the unique water wildlife.
- Sausage Tree Camp’s African inspired fusion cuisine will certainly be a highlight of your stay.
- Also available is Kigelia House, consisting of two ensuite bedrooms, a large living area, huge timber deck with built in swimming pool, plus a mini bar and dining table.
