Safari

Discover the beauty of Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia, with a stay at Old Mondoro Camp – a destination ideal for a remote, wildlife-rich safari and an authentic bush atmosphere.

The Hotel

No fences, untamed wildlife, and intimate bush camp ambience. There’s only five chalets at Old Mondoro, meaning a stay here is very much personalised, private and uncrowded. Rustic yet comfortable, each chalet is constructed from natural materials, mixing reed, canvas and limewash-effect stone. Beds are adorned with floaty white drapery, with interiors decorated in a calming, neutral colours, with subtle African touches. The essence of laidback luxury is continued throughout the camp in shared spaces and on the terraces of each room, where an outdoor splash tub overlooks the river and lagoon that surrounding wildlife often frequent.

Amenities & experiences 

You’ll likely see elephants, hippos, buffalo, baboons and more naturally moving around camp – sometimes just metres from your room. There’s game drives daily in open 4×4 vehicles with expert local guides, as well as bush walks, and boat and canoe safaris. Despite its rustic setting and remote location, you can expect fantastic dining and seasonal cuisine, typically enjoyed communally in the open-fronted dining area overlooking the river, around the fireplace or served from the traditional Mokoro.

Chisa Busanga Camp

Set within unique woven nest rooms, Chisa Busanga Camp is no ordinary safari camp. The Hotel The breathtaking architecture of Chisa Busanga Camp is inspired by the weaver birds nests in the area, being one of the first properties in Africa to directly replicate the natural habitat, but also the processes and materials of building such a structure. There's only four guest rooms here, so exclusivity is something that stands out. Each Chisa room has a large opening, overlooking the vast plains, with the entire room centred around this view. Expect to wake, relax and even shower to these fantastic vistas. Amenities & experiences  The camp is the only in the region that operates Silent Safaris – the game drive vehicles are entirely electric and solar powered, meaning they are minimally disruptive, allowing guests to get closer to the wildlife. The incredible flora and fauna can also be explored on guided walks and cycling tours. And when you're after a little downtime, the swimming pool, communal spaces, restaurant and bar are ideal spots to unwind.
