The setting on the banks of the Zambezi is incredible. Looking out at the elephants, cape buffalo and hippo’s grazing on the island directly across from the camp. Listening to the hippo grazing by the tent at night. Magical!!

I highly recommend this camp as they not only met my expectations but exceeded them by far. Great job to everyone that makes the camp run so well. Thank you!

A beautifully situated lodge right on the Zambezi River. The staff were very helpful and the food was excellent. The wildlife and landscape were stunning. The highlight was a canoe trip on the Zambezi past hippos and along the steep banks.
