Kuyenda Bushcamp

There’s something undeniably special about Kuyenda. Set beneath shady trees by the Manzi River, it may be the simplest of our camps but Kuyenda embodies the authentic charm of old Africa with its cluster of traditional thatched grass huts and back-to-nature feel. There are 6 rondaval raised chalets with large comfortable beds under mosquito nets.

As for the wildlife, you hardly need look for it as it will come to you. Settle down in the lounge and look out over the rippling grasses of the neighbouring plain where the drama of the African wilderness is played out each day.

Kuyenda’s intimate atmosphere is only enhanced by the extraordinary staff who run the camp – the ever-hospitable team and  Zambia’s most experienced guides. No one knows Kuyenda like they do, and no one will make you feel more welcome.

Kuyenda's five raised rondaval chalets of reed and thatch, nestled beneath large shady trees by the Manzi River, combine rustic elegance with classic bush style. The chalets have en suite outside bathrooms with a view, and open up onto large wooden decks that overlook the grassy plain.

The main dining and living area is an extended rondaval with open sides and views across to the hills in the distance. Wooden floors, a small bar and and comfortable furnishings, this is a perfect place to relax and wind down after a walking safari or game drive.

This camp's simple beauty calls you back again and again.
