Three Rivers Camp

Three Rivers Camp is located approximately 2 hours South of Kafunta River Lodge and a mere 7 km North of Island Bush Camp, with the option of walking between both bush camps – an experience we strongly recommend. It takes about 4 hours to walk between them and creates a really interesting itinerary for those who particularly love nature walks. Three Rivers is the newest addition to the Kafunta Safaris camps. Found at the confluence of the Luangwa, Kapamba and Lusangazi Rivers in South Luangwa, Zambia, the camp is eco solar-powered and dinners are by candlelight. Stellar service and cuisine surprise guests despite the wilderness and remote location.

The five stylish tents lay under shady sausage trees and are facing either the Luangwa River or the game-rich lagoon. They each have spectacular views, en-suite bathroom with indoor and outdoor showers, and walk-in mosquito nets. The camp also has a communal dining area, spa and bar. The distinctive feature of each guest room is its private elevated platform, safely connected to the tent for convenient access day and night. Ready with plush beds, the platform lets you absorb the stunning views during the day or sleep under the stars surrounded only by the sights and sounds of the African bush.

Observe the many hippos and crocodiles basking on the beaches ahead, and keep your camera at hand to capture the swift African Skimmer or colorful bee-eater. After dinner enjoy the fireplace while looking up at the millions of stars, or listen to lions roaring in the distance. Activities include game drives in the South Luangwa National Park along with bush walks around the camp area and down the river banks. Encounter elephants, giraffes, waterbuck, and maybe the relatively rare roan antelope with a chance to also spot lions, leopards or wild dogs. Short night drives are also offered before returning to camp for dinner.
