Nestled in a grove of ancient mahogany trees, the tented suites are designed to fully immerse guests into the bush experience. From the comfort of your open air lounge, watch the diverse wildlife wandering by on the grassy floodplains. Listen to the hippos bellowing in the nearby lagoon and breathe in the heady aroma of African jasmine drifting past on a cool breeze. Sit back and let the peace of this place wash over you.

Intro
Highlights
There is a large hippo filled lagoon close by with a ‘hide’ for guests to watch the animals unnoticed high above the water. Walking safaris from camp usually finish here with sundowners, watching the sunset over a landscape unchanged for thousands of years. This permanent water source attracts wildlife from far and wide making the camp area constantly busy with animals.
Need To Know
Luwi was one of the South Luangwa National Park's first remote safari camps. Norman and Adrian sited the camp back in the 1980s and today this camp epitomizes the legacy of Norman Carr. The camp barely has an impact on the environment being built with natural materials and dismantled at the end of each season
Safaris
Typically your day will start early around the camp fire when you will discuss the noises and animals heard through the night.
Your morning walking safari is likely to take three to four hours returning you to camp in time for a hearty brunch.
