Luxury Mchenja Bush Camp, meaning "ebony", occupies a stunning setting beneath a magnificent grove of these trees on the banks of the Luangwa River and is in an area teeming with wildlife.
The camp comprises 5 stylishly designed tents each under its own thatched roof and with a deck in front overlooking the Luangwa River. The tents have indoor baths with outdoor shower rooms.
A small pool alongside the bar within the thatched main chitenje, allows guests to seek cool refuge after their morning's safari activities.
As a luxury bush camp, Mchenja is the perfect destination to complete a walking safari that has combined stays at a number of other camps.
Guests staying at Mchenja can choose whether they want to view their wildlife on foot or from an open vehicle.
The game viewing in this area is superb and night drives are also most worthwhile.
