Luwi Bushcamp | Mahlatini Luxury Travel

Discover Time + Tide Luwi

Found on the banks of a lagoon and nestled under large mahogany trees, Time + Tide Luwi is in the heart of the South Luangwa National Park, remote, secluded and beautiful. With only 5 cozy safari tents, rebuild every year, you are fully immersed in the bush experience. Each has an open-air bathroom and a peaceful outdoor eating area for watching wildlife wander by. The camp overlooks a floodplain that attracts hippos and elephants.

Take a nap in the hammock beside the main lounge, enveloped in tranquility. Enjoy a pre-dinner gin and tonic in the inviting open-air bar. Relive your favorite moments of the day over a delicious Zambian-inspired meal in the wild.

INSIDER TIP

"The South Luangwa is home to the walking safari. Why not book to stay in two or more Time + Tide camps in the South Luangwa and walk between them, the longest walk being 4.5 hours."
