Kuyenda Bushcamp
About Kuyenda Bushcamp
Kuyenda Bushcamp embodies the spirit of the old-style walking safari in the South Luangwa. Set in an open, sun-dappled glade near the Luwi River, the camp uses simple yet comfortable tented accommodation to keep guests close to the environment. The area is a mosaic of habitats, ranging from grassy plains to riverine thickets, providing a sanctuary for a wide variety of wildlife. Walking safaris are the primary activity here, offering a visceral and educational perspective on the local ecosystem that game drives cannot replicate. For the authentic enthusiast, Kuyenda provides a stripped-back, high-quality experience that prioritizes raw, honest connection with the landscape and its inhabitants, guided by some of the most knowledgeable professionals in the valley.
Why we like it
It is arguably the best camp for those who want to prioritize walking safaris and engage deeply with the smaller, often overlooked wonders of the bush.
