Chiawa Camp

Resting peacefully on the banks of the Zambezi River, under a grove of evergreen mahogany trees, Chiawa Camp holds a prime position in the heart of the Lower Zambezi National Park. This privately owned camp was chosen as one of Africa’s top ten safari camps in Conde Nast’s Best of the Best series.



The camp accommodates a maximum of 16 guests in a combination of luxury, honeymoon and superior tents. The tents all have excellent views and are accessed by paths running behind them to maximise privacy. Constructed mainly of natural materials Chiawa Camp blends in effortlessly with its idyllic surroundings.


Classic Safari Tent

A stunning thatched lounge/bar area with upstairs viewing deck provides one of the best views of the Zambezi.  


Superior Safari Tent

Enjoy Chiawa’s renowned cuisine on the al-fresco dining veranda. After dinner, retire to the campfire and enjoy a cocktail or two while taking in the sounds and magic of the African night.  



In a hidden corner of the camp there is a viewing hide up in a mahogany tree from where you can watch life and the Zambezi go by or you could opt to take a dip in Chiawa’s refreshing plunge pool, complete with sun deck overlooking the Zambezi.



Varied activities at Chiawa include day and night game drives, bush walks, river safaris, canoeing and fishing. The camp prides itself on the high quality of its guiding and allows guests to set their own pace and select activities according to their preferences.
