Chongwe River Camp

On the confluence of the mighty Zambezi and Chongwe Rivers, is a place where the African wilderness meets old-fashioned hospitality in a fusion of natural beauty and luxury accommodation…Chongwe River Camp.

Eight luxury tented chalets are strung out along the Chongwe River underneath a cooling canopy of winterthorn trees. Light, airy and spacious, with either one king-size or two twin beds and integrated shelving, each of the eight classic tents at Chongwe River Camp is equipped with enough luxuries to ensure one’s stay in the bush is exceptional.

For those seeking that extra intimacy and privacy, Chongwe’s two tented suites – the Albida Suite and Cassia Suite offer a completely private, butler-serviced accommodation and dining options.

Albida is a colonial-style tented suite sleeping four guests in two custom designed octagonal bedrooms with inter-leading pathways on either side of a private lounge area, complete with its own bar fridge, plunge pool and fire pit. It is ideal for families or friends travelling together. Cassia Suite is ideal for guests requesting the exclusivity of a suite with privacy and is the quintessential romantic setting for honeymoon couples. Built in the same style and grandeur as Albida Suite, Cassia has an adjoining bathroom, featuring a Victorian-style ball and claw bathtub and intimate rainfall-style shower with a lounge and fully stocked bar alongside a private pool set at the edge of the river.
