Zungulila Bushcamp, South Luangwa National Park, Zambia
A Tented Camp in Zambia
Camp Details
Zungulila’s classic Meru tents are stylish and spacious and the ensuite bathrooms have outdoor showers and enormous bathtubs, allowing you to enjoy your creatures and your creature comfort! Across the camp, the immense views look over an impressive variety of wildlife, from thirsty elephant at the springs and flocks of birds on the river, to prowling lion and large herds of buffalo on the plains. You may just be tempted to stay forever…
If you long to explore Africa as it used to be, then come to Zungulila. Expert guides will lead you on foot through some of the park’s most untouched wilderness, where large herds of buffalo roam and elephants drink along the river. Activities are focused around walking, but there are a number of driving loops in the area to travel further afield on game drives, day and night. In the evening, join your hosts for sundowners around the campfire before recounting the day’s adventures over a starlit supper.
