Nsefu was the first photographic safari camp in Zambia and dates back to the early fifties. The camp was bought by Robin Pope Safaris in 1998 and completely rebuilt and refurbished, in keeping with the original style, complete with wind up gramophone, 1920s hand basins and traditional silver service.

The view of the river is superb and includes a terraced area where game grazes during the day. The bar, tucked in beside a huge extinct termite mound, overlooks a waterhole that is very productive for game, especially leopard at night.

Twelve guests can be accommodated in six thatched rondavels, each with an en-suite spacious bathroom with flush loo. Each room has a clear view of the river, through large windows and from the shady wooden veranda. Lighting is supplied by generator and solar lamps.

Activities from the camp include walks led by an experienced naturalist and accompanied by an armed game scout, game drives conducted in open four wheel drive vehicles and night drives.

Rooms and Suites

Rondavel

Only 12 guests are accommodated in six beautifully restored rondavels from the 1950's. All are whitewashed with thatched roofs, open-air bathrooms, and decorated with understated elegance. Each of the original rondavels has been extended, with a spacious bathroom added. Each rondavel has its own wooden veranda with comfortable directors chairs. Crisp cotton sheets, thick cotton towels and linen bathrobes, along with the characteristic English toiletries, are a luxurious touch. Every bed in camp has its own private view of the Luangwa River.

Your Destination

Location

Zambia is situated mainly on a vast plateau 1.8 miles above sea level, and boasts the Zambezi, Kafue and Luangwa rivers - as well as one of the largest waterfalls in the world, the Victoria Falls, which it shares with neighboring Zimbabwe. Most of the country has a mild, pleasant climate, while the river valleys are hotter and more humid; the extreme north becomes tropical on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, one of Zambia's ten large lakes. While Lusaka is the country's capital, Livingstone, just 6 miles from the Falls, is more well known to travelers as the 'adventure capital' offering adrenalin-packed activities on and around the Falls and the Zambezi River.
