Why we love it
Recently renovated, Sausage Tree Camp exudes Zambian bush luxury safari. The camp, named after the sausage shaped fruit in the giant Sausage Trees that surround the lodge has a privileged location within the natural beauty of the protected Lower Zambezi National Park with an abundance of wildlife on your doorstep. The camp has no boundaries allowing animals wander around the camp, making the comfort of your tent the ideal wildlife viewing sanctuary.
The open plan dining, bar and lounge deck area sits on the edge of the Zambezi River next to the 25m infinity swimming pool which is the perfect location to watch the sun go down. This stylish, contemporary and very luxurious camp is comprised of seven luxury suites. Each suite is tastefully decorated with modern furniture, natural wood and soft linens with a private deck and plunge pool looking out over the reed islands ahead.
Set in the heart of the Lower Zambezi National Park, Sausage Tree Camp provides a perfect location to set out for game drives and night drives to see a host of different animals.
Take a game drive from camp to an open area in the early hours of the morning to explore Zambezi on foot and encounter some spectacular animals.
Paddle effortlessly downstream on the 'Chifungulu Channel' to see a variety of animals and birds cool off by the river banks.
Watch as animals come down to the Zambezi River to drink and bathe before enjoying the spectacular African sunset with a gin and tonic.
Hear the booming call of the impressive ground hornbill, or watch the fluttering of small red-billed firefinches, as two of the 500 species of birds in the park.
Try your hand at catching the infamous relative of the piranha, the fighting tigerfish, before releasing back into the wild in accordance to the park's principles.
Unwind with a sundowner after cooling off in Sausage Tree's lap pool, before enjoying a three course meal accompanied with South African wines.

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.
