The concession operates in partnership with African Parks and AP Kafue, contributing to anti-poaching operations and wildlife monitoring across the park. Three river chalets and one honeymoon suite occupy a stretch of riverbank framed by granite boulders and miombo woodland. Each chalet holds a private veranda, ensuite bathroom, and open-air rain shower facing the water. The honeymoon suite spans 60 m² and can accommodate two adults or be configured as a family unit with two additional beds. Hand-crafted timber furniture and cotton linens furnish the rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe camp offers boat cruises on a nine-seater aluminium vessel, navigating channels and granite formations where hippos surface and fish eagles hunt. Game drives depart in open-rooftop vehicles with guides who track lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and cheetah across Kafue's diverse ecosystems. Walking safaris lead to the Lubalanzuki granite inselberg for sunrise views over the woodland, and to the rapids where rock pools form in the dry months. Over 400 bird species inhabit the riverine forest and miombo, including Pel's fishing owl and kingfisher. Sunrise yoga sessions run on the riverbank, led by a certified instructor. The camp closes January through March and operates April to December. No phone signal reaches the site; communication runs via WhatsApp where connectivity allows or satellite where available.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- plk-tmpl-cb 2026-07-31T09:42:14.971Z --\u003e","brand":"phasec-create","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43808529219643,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"fig-tree-bush-camp-54588","title":"Fig Tree Bush Camp","description":"\u003cp\u003eFig Tree Bush Camp sits on the bank of the Shishamba River in Kafue National Park, overlooking a lagoon one-and-a-half kilometres long and about sixty metres wide. That lagoon holds water through the dry season, which draws elephant, puku, impala, zebra, hartebeest, sable and roan to the water's edge — and behind them, lion, leopard, cheetah, hyena, and wild dog that follow the concentration of game. Hippo and crocodile are in the river itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe camp holds four raised luxury safari tents, each on a three-metre platform. Two are configured as doubles, two as twins; all have en-suite bathrooms and private verandas looking out over the lagoon on one side, with views across the open plains behind the camp on the other. A starbed on a raised platform is also available for sleeping under open sky. The central boma, shaded by the large fig tree that gives the camp its name, seats all eight guests at a single table with a clear view of the lagoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGame drives run twice daily — sunrise and late afternoon.
