accommodation
Four spacious tents make up this charming bushcamp that embodies old Africa.
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…
Experiences
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.
An iconic tradition
As the sun sinks below the horizon, there is nothing better than finding a spectacular spot in the heart of the bush for an ice-cold drink and something to nibble on.
Where the walking safari is King
The walking safari was born in the South Luangwa, so it’s only fitting that many of your outings will be on foot with the very finest guides.
Exceptional wildlife-viewing
Explore the rich diversity and incredible wildlife of the South Luangwa on a game drive. On four wheels, you’ll cover as much of the region as possible and maximise your game-viewing.
Heighten your senses
At night, a whole new cast of characters fills the landscape of the South Luangwa. With the help of a spotlight, take to the road and see what you can find…
