Lion Camp, a privately owned safari lodge in Zambia's renowned South Luangwa National Park, delivers one of the most exclusive and authentic safari experiences in Africa.
Perched on the edge of an oxbow lagoon, it attracts a wide variety of wildlife right to the doorstep, from lions, leopards, and wild dogs to large herds of elephants and buffalo. Add to this the highest concentration of hippos in Africa, plentiful birdlife, and rare species like Thornicroft’s Giraffe, Cookson’s Wildebeest, and Crawshay’s Zebra, and you have a wildlife enthusiast’s dream.
The camp’s ten luxurious timber, canvas, and thatch suites are raised on stilts, with private decks offering panoramic views of the plains and the constant comings and goings of wildlife. The suites are linked to the airy main lodge by a winding wooden walkway, where you’ll find cosy nooks, a pool, and dining areas designed to make the most of the breathtaking surroundings.
Lion Camp’s game drives and walking safaris are led by some of the best guides in South Luangwa, ensuring every outing is as insightful as it is thrilling. Back at camp, indulge in delicious meals crafted from local ingredients and paired with South African estate wines, or enjoy a magical bush dinner under the stars.
