Where in Africa shall we go?

A Contemporary Sanctuary on the Banks of the Luangwa River
Nestled beneath ancient msikizi trees along a sweeping bend of the Luangwa River, Time + Tide Chinzombo redefines luxury safari experiences in South Luangwa National Park. Designed by award-winning architects, this intimate camp seamlessly blends modern elegance with the raw beauty of the African bush, creating a tranquil retreat for the discerning traveler.

The camp features six exclusive luxury safari villas, including a two-bedroom family villa. Each villa boasts expansive interiors with open-plan lounges, eco-cooled sleeping spaces, and en-suite bathrooms fitted with deep soaking tubs and walk-in showers overlooking the river. The private wooden decks extend onto plunge pools, offering an idyllic setting for unwinding while observing the abundant wildlife along the riverbanks.

At the heart of Chinzombo lies the main lodge, where guests can relax on the riverfront sun deck, browse the open-air library, or sip fine wines at the bar. Dining at Chinzombo is a gourmet experience, with meals prepared from the freshest locally sourced ingredients and served under the stars, on the deck, or in the elegant dining areas. The fire pit, perched atop the riverbank, provides a serene space for evening reflections beneath the African sky.

Chinzombo is set in one of South Luangwa’s most wildlife-rich regions, offering exceptional game-viewing experiences. Guests cross the river by boat to embark on expertly guided game drives, immersive walking safaris, and seasonal boat cruises, encountering lions, leopards, elephants, and other iconic species. With its perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, Chinzombo is a sanctuary where the wild spirit of Zambia meets unparalleled comfort.
