Buffalo Camp

Zambia


Located in the south of the park, Buffalo Camp is a quiet, secluded place. It’s good value (and unusually welcomes children) and the six traditional-style thatch-roofed chalets overlook the river. Book ahead for the ‘self-catering rates’, normally only available when there’s a paucity of guests on the all-inclusive package. Transfers for those without vehicles are usually possible from Kapishya Lodge or Mpika (maximum four people).

It's run by Mark Harvey, grandson of Stewart Gore-Browne of Shiwa Ng'andu, where he was raised.
