Baines' River Camp

Found on the banks of the Zambezi River, just to the west of the beautiful Lower Zambezi National Park, Baines’ River Camp is a superb spot from which to explore this icon of Zambia and offers the full range of activities that make this such an alluring place to visit.

There are 8 Suites and a Family House here, so a maximum of 20 guests meaning it has a very private and intimate feel, even when full in the height of the safari season. Shaded from the harsh African sun by Jackalberry and Tamarind trees and with stunning views out over the river, it really is a idyllic spot. The suites are all of solid construction and have air conditioning, which is very welcoming in the hotter months, as well as their own private verandas with amazing river views. Inside they are very spacious and comfortable with beautiful en-suite bathrooms at the rear. The family house also has its own lounge and dining area so is ideal for those looking for some privacy during their stay. The main area of the lodge has a strong colonial theme to it, with lots of deep, comfortable sofas, a cozy lounge and bar area and the chance to dine alfresco should the weather allow. A sparkling swimming pool overlooks the mighty Zambezi and is the ideal place to cool off and relax in between safari activities.

Guests staying at Baines’ can enjoy the full range of Lower Zambezi activities including game drives, guided walks, boat & canoe safaris, fishing trips and sunset river cruises. The programme offers morning and afternoon safaris and can be adapted to suit guests’ needs and offer preferred activities at the preferred time.
