This is where you head if you like to wake up with the drumming call of ground hornbills, shower under the open sky with the river breeze fresh on your skin, and sit with your palms cupped round a mug of fresh coffee as the smoke from the camp-fire at your feet drifts slowly upwards. If you would enjoy a three hour walk along tracks used by elephant and leopard during the night, before returning for a well-deserved brunch cooked in an earth oven, then Zambia’s bushcamps are surely the place for you.
The North and South Luangwa offer an authentic, sometimes fairly raw, but always comfortable bush experience. The idea is to surround yourself with nature and so camps are simple affairs and activities often revolve around getting out on your own two feet. But by simple, we still mean you can enjoy a hot shower, a proper bed with crisp sheets, and delicious food....this is not slumming-it.
Luwi is one of those camps that attracts adjectives like a magnet - rustic, unpretentious, bucolic. In truth, its simplicity needs no embellishment. What you will find here is a place to lay your head where you can be surrounded by the sights, sounds and smells of the African bush without the fanfare and fuss. Read more?
