Is the MAWIMBA Bush Camp for Me?

Opening in April 2026, MAWIMBI Bush Camp sits on the west banks of the Kafue River in Zambia’s Kafue National Park. Positioned between the flowing water and a lush natural wetland, this secluded camp provides a serene base for a remote Zambia safari.

As a small and intimate bush camp, the property features four luxury river-view tented suites that provide a private and restorative atmosphere. Each spacious tent includes an en-suite indoor bathroom and a private deck, where you can soak in your own plunge pool while listening to the grunting of hippos.

Beyond the comfort of your private hot tub, you are invited to explore the untouched wilderness through professionally guided walking safaris and tranquil river cruises. MAWIMBI Bush Camp specialises in immersive canoe safaris and expert-led bush walks, offering an authentic encounter with diverse wildlife. It is an ideal retreat for couples, bird watchers, and seasoned safari-goers seeking a deeply connected experience in the wildest frontiers.
