About the location
Nkwali Camp is sat just outside of the South Luangwa’s National Park, in the game management area which sits on private land owned by the Robin Pope Portfolio.
As a result, the camp and its guests benefit from seclusion and privacy, along with exclusive access into the park by boat or pontoon when the water levels get lower. There is resident game on the game management side and prides of lion sometimes cross over to this side of the river, so Nkwali gets the best of both worlds.

camp Layout
The camp homes six spacious chalets, each with a view of the mighty Luangwa River. A large ebony tree is the main feature when walking into the bar and lounge area; it is immediately striking and truly makes you feel you are in the bush.
Further back from the bank of the river is the swimming pool which overlooks a small lagoon, home to the resident hippo named Humphrey!

Nkwali Camp Accomodation
The six chalets at Nkewli Camp are completely open during the day, which offers views directly out onto the Luangwa. At night, the gated doors are pulled together to make the room cosy and safe.
The chalets all have very large en-suites, with twin sinks, flushing toilets and an open-air large shower. The honeymoon chalet is much larger, with an extended lounge area inside the room with a comfortable sofa looking out onto the river.

Inside the park, activities include game drives (day and night) and walking safaris, led by a knowledge guide a National Park scout.
