Tena Tena, South Luangwa National Park

Get up close and personal with safari wildlife at this 12 guest safari lodge. dine under the stars every night and marvel at the proximity of the teaming watering hole every morning.

Few places in Africa bring you into such close – almost casual – contact with wild animals and a huge selection of colourful birds. This is the genuine African bush safari experience with the emphasis on seeing game rather than spending precious hours searching for it.

At Tena Tena you stay in traditional – but accommodating – tents hidden in the bush. You can roll up the sides and watch elephant families from your bed. Down by the river you’ll find hippos in abundance. You can safari just a few kilometres and see all manner of game – including giraffe and leopard.
