| A walking safari on the banks of the Luangwa River | | | | The South Luangwa National Park is dominated by the Luangwa River. Lagoons and sandbanks, riverine forests and open plains, host an abundance of wildlife and birds. Here lies a remote and intimate camp - Tena Tena. Robin Pope's first camp, it is situated overlooking a sweeping bend of the Luangwa River. | | | The lounge area at Tena Tena | | | | A grove of mahogany trees shade four large custom-made tents, each with an open-air bathroom to view the elephants feeding or the warthogs having a mud bath. Relaxed and informal, this is reflected in the superb home cooking and the flexible approach to game viewing. Tena Tena means 'temporary home' - and so it is. | | | Luxury tented accommodation | | | | From Tena Tena there are daily walks, morning and night drives, as well as all day drives with bush picnics. With only eight guests and three guides to look after you we offer a totally personalised experience. Combining Tena Tena with Nkwali and Nsefu, Robin's other camps, or a five-day walking safari, ensures a superb safari experience covering all the ecosystems of the vast Luangwa Valley. | | | Dining under thatch above the river | | | | | | | Rates are available on request. | | |
