Chiawa Camp

Chiawa Camp, a family-owned and operated, multi-award-winning gem, stands as the trailblazer in Lower Zambezi National Park, the inaugural camp nestled along the majestic Zambezi River. As Zambia's premier luxury safari retreat, Chiawa offers a serene and leisurely haven for both wildlife and guests. It effortlessly presents a myriad of activities, from game drives to exhilarating game walks, canoeing, boating, and angling, all guided by Africa's most seasoned experts.

Every opulent tent commands breathtaking vistas of the Zambezi River and its abundant wildlife inhabitants. This idyllic realm teems with elephants, lions, leopards, hippos, and more, embodying Zambia's natural splendor.

The team, with a Cumings son and daughter-in-law on board, is a close-knit, dedicated, and industrious group. Comprising 7 guides, 3 chefs, 3 waitstaff, 2 management teams, and a devoted produce buyer, it's like an extended family – and we haven't even introduced the camp choir!
