“Superb family-operated camp overlooking the Zambezi. One of Africa's top ten safari spots in an unrivalled location under a grove of mahogany trees. Each beautiful, romantically decorated room overlooks the Zambezi. A spot for honeymooners and those who want the best. ”

Hotel review

Chiawa, renowned for its personalized, excellent service and for its expert African-born guides, is regarded as one of Africa's top ten safari camps. Owned and operated by the Cumings family, one of the privileged few to start safaris in this area. Chiawa's camp location is unrivalled - set under a grove of mahogany trees, each room looks out over the Zambezi. The highest price tag of any Zambian camp, but worth every penny.
