Why we love it
Nkwali Camp is located on Robin Pope Safari’s private land overlooking the Luangwa River and the National Park. This is superb game viewing country, with a beautiful area of ebony woodland and open grass plains.
There is accommodation for 12 guests in cool and spacious en-suite chalets made of thatch and woven bamboo and all with excellent views of the river. Elephants often cross the
Luangwa, seen from the bar, or come to the waterhole near the thatched dining room. The chalets are cool and spacious, with a view of the river. One double, four twins and a honeymoon suite/family suite. Throughout the year there is direct access from camp to the park by boat or vehicle. During the dry months a pontoon is operated into the more southern part of the area.
Located on the banks of the Luangwa River, Nkwali Camp provides a great opportunity to explore the inhabitants and visitors of the river on this seasonal boating experience.
Explore the private game viewing area behind the camp to see buffalo, zebra and giraffe or spot a leopard roaming on the banks of the Luangwa River.
Walking around Nkwali Camp is a great way to get up close to some creatures big and small, including a herd of elephant.
The Luangwa Valley is vast, remote and home to both a truly impressive variety of game and people, who you can experience through a prepared cultural tour.
See Luangwa Valley under a starry night sky and see if you can spot some of Zambia's nocturnal creatures with the help of an experienced guide and spotlight.
Nkwali's location on the river's edge provides a wonderful opportunity to see a variety of birds cool off in the late afternoon sun.

The team at True Travel had a simple brief: to send us on the world’s best family safari. As soon as our boat headed down the Zambezi, it all kicked off; we passed a herd of hippos, a lazy crocodile and a giraffe drinking nonchalantly on the riverbank. A magical experience from beginning to end. Nothing was too much trouble and if we had any issue that needed resolving, there was always someone on hand to do this. Before and after, they were off the charts – simply an awesome team.
