Chiawa Camp

Chiawa camp sets very high standards, with tented accommodation on raised decks overlooking the river in a grove of mahogany and acacia trees. The camp accommodates sixteen and offers a variety of activities that are second to none. En suite - safari tents provide relaxed, comfortable accommodation while watching game nearby.

With the spectacular Zambezi escarpment as a backdrop, dotted with ancient baobab trees and shaded by forest of mahogany and acacia, the scenery along this massive river is superb. The sparkling waters of the Zambezi are a focal point for the abundant wildlife, which includes elephant, hippo, buffalo, zebra, lion, cheetah, leopard, various antelope species and a great variety of birds.

The charming thatched lounge with its upstairs observation deck, bar and dining area look over the Zambezi river. There is a fireside barbeque area and a reed-enclosed boma where guests can recount the events of the day under a starlit sky. Chiawa Camp offers many exciting land and water activities.

Day and night game drives are in open four-wheel drive vehicles and on nature walks a professional armed guide accompanies one.

River cruises and canoeing provide a wonderful opportunity to view game at close quarters, especially elephant.

Anglers will have the opportunity to experience the thrill of catching the infamous tiger fish on a catch-and-release basis (fishing and park angling permits are at additional cost).

As Chiawa Camp is owner-run the emphasis is on warm hospitality, personalized service and a friendly atmosphere in the Zambezi Valley's prime location.
