A stunningly beautiful tented camp in the South Luangwa, Chindeni Bush Camp has an enviable location on the edge of a lagoon where hippos and elephants wallow. Sleeping under canvas ignites a sense of adventure and at Chindeni you can combine that thrill with style and comfort in one of its four opulent tents.
The tents have stripped wooden floors, four-poster beds, cozy sitting rooms, en suite bathrooms, and vaulted canvas ceilings. Each has a private deck jutting out over the lagoon from which you can see an abundance of wildlife without leaving your room! Settle back with a gin and tonic in the central lounge and dining area - an expanse of varnished decking around the surrounding ebony trees, boasting spectacular views of the serene lagoon and its inhabitants.

Honeymoon to Chindeni Bush Camp
We had amazing game drive experiences... tracking a pride of hunting lions one night was especially memorable. We went on walking saffaris which was extremely informative and interesting. The Game here was top notch. Fun safari adventures!
Again a good service the guides had fantastic knowledge, a mixture of walking and driving safari. Managed to see everything except the wild dogs. The guides certainly knew their patch
Accommodation opposite water, a little more game here.
