Lower Zambezi, Zambia

The Albida Suite at Chongwe River Camp

Location

Chongwe River Camp is situated on the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi Rivers, directly opposite Mana Pools. The Chongwe River is the boundary of the Lower Zambezi National Park, a four thousand square kilometre pristine sanctuary, teeming with game, and said to be one of the continent's most picturesque wilderness areas.

The Lower Zambezi has become one of southern Africa's premier destinations for peaceful game viewing and unparalleled tiger fish angling.

Ambiance

Chongwe River Camp is a family owned and run business dedicated not only to providing your dream safari experience but also hospitality that can only be found in a home.

Accommodation

The Chongwe Camp comprises four distinct encampments, Chongwe River Camp, the Albida Suite, the Cassia Suite and Chongwe River House.

In the Albida Suite, the newest addition to Chongwe, the en-suite deluxe rooms are separate octagonal tents with gauze windows on seven sides with inter-leading path ways and gardens. The bathrooms have a canvas roof but are open to the bush with a bath, double basins and double shower. One shower is under cover and one is open air. Perfect for families or friends who travel together, the rooms can have a third bed or cot quite easily.

The suite offers pure luxury but sill retains the spirit of the bush. We are quite confident it is the finest tented accommodation in the Lower Zambezi if not all of Zambia.

Activities

Activities include game drives, including night drives in the National Park or along the Chongwe River, walking safaris, cruising, fishing and canoeing. If the suite is filled and the group is doing the same activity then private guides will be available. Sometimes, if the group splits up, or due to safety and routes on canoes and walks a private guide/activity is not always possible.
