Meals follow the rhythm of the safari day. A light continental spread of bread, pastries and fruit precedes the early game drive, with a full cooked breakfast for those staying behind. Lunch is a buffet with salads, hot dishes and dessert, and afternoon tea brings savoury bites before the evening outing. Sundowners stop the game drive for a G&T and snacks as the light fades. Dinner, a four-course meal ending in dessert, is usually eaten outdoors under the sky on the main deck, looking over the floodplain. Chefs are drawn from the local Luangwa community, and dietary needs can be catered for with advance notice.
