Time + Tide Luwi

South Luangwa National Park, Zambia - Adventure 3

Time + Tide Luwi is a seasonal bush camp nestled under huge mahogany trees on the banks of a permanent lagoon. It is situated deep in the heart of the National Park and is one of the only Luangwa safari camps to be positioned well away from the permanent waters and rich vegetation of the main river. Due to its remote location there are not many roads in the area so activities are focussed on walking safaris. This fact makes Luwi Bush Camp one of the most enthralling camps in Zambia. The wildlife in the area is prolific and tracking these animals each day on foot is a memory that will last a lifetime.

Accommodation consists of huts that are made of grass and thatch with polished mud floors, complete with an en suite open air bathroom with flushing toilet and hot water. Each room is designed differently utilizing trees and natural vegetation wherever possible. The design of these rooms lends the camp a rustic appeal and provides a truly African bush experience.

The main area consists of a small thatch cover bar and lounge area. Daytime meals are served in the shade of the trees above whilst dinner is taken under the stars accompanied by the many sounds of the Zambian nights.

There is a large lagoon adjacent to camp that teams with hippo and crocodile. This permanent water source attracts wildlife from far and wide making the camp area constantly busy with animals.

Luwi was one of the South Luangwa National Park's first remote safari camps. Norman Carr sited the camp back in the 1980s and today this camp, more than any other in Zambia, offers guests an authentic walking safari and a taste of the traditional African bush experience.
