Further Information
Tena Tena lies within a secluded area of the South Luangwa National Park,
overlooking a wide sweep of the Luangwa River. It is a small, exclusive, temporary
bush camp owned by Robin Pope Safaris that is stripped each year before the
rains and completely rebuilt again at the start of each season. To get to Tena
Tena it is a game drive northeast from Mfuwe through the park, then a short
motor boat trip to cross the Luangwa River, then a short drive to the camp.
It
takes a good 3-4 hours but you will see it really is worth the journey when
you arrive in this truly remote and beautiful spot. The view from the thatched
bar and dining room is quite superb with game and numerous birds within the
vicinity of the camp at all times. The camp sleeps 12 people in 6 large walk-in
tents, each with its own ensuite bathroom. Both the food and guiding are superb
here culminating in what really is a high quality operation.
Why?
Beautifully run
Set in spectacular area on the river
Some of the best guiding in Africa
Why Not?
Semi-permenant tented camp with open air bathrooms so may not be for everyone
