Nkwali Camp – location

Nkwali Safari Camp is located on Robin Pope’s private land overlooking the South Luangwa National Park, an impressive area of game country made up of beautiful ebony woodlands and sweeping open grass plains. Every day, elephants and Thornicroft giraffes can be seen around the camp, often in large numbers.

To enter the park we cross the river by boat or – in the dry season between mid May and October – by pontoon. During the beautiful Emerald Season – between January and mid May – the river level rises and we are able to boat up river, explore lagoons along the way and observe the animals and birds in peak breeding season.

As well as a wide choice of game drives, walking safaris and night drives, guests at Nkwali Safari Lodge may also choose to visit Kawaza School or stay overnight at Kawaza Village, the award-winning community projects supported by Robin Pope Safaris for more than 20 years.
