Luwi Bushcamp
About Luwi Bushcamp
Luwi Bushcamp is one of the more secluded gems in the South Luangwa, situated deep within the park near the Luwi River. The camp offers a classic, stripped-back experience that focuses heavily on walking safaris, led by some of the most respected guides in the industry. The landscape is diverse, featuring dense woodland that opens into dry riverbeds and lagoons, creating a natural corridor for elephant and lion. The camp itself uses simple, high-quality canvas structures that emphasize comfort while maintaining a direct, tactile connection to the outdoors. It is a perfect choice for those who value expert knowledge and a quiet, immersive experience, offering an unparalleled opportunity to study the intricacies of the African wilderness in a remote setting.
Why we like it
It remains one of the few camps that captures the true, original spirit of the Luangwa walking safari experience.
