Great start to our safari

Excellent game sightings.
Four people per vehicle. No middle seats, not cramped.
Our guide Fred, got us into great private viewing positions for sightings.
Wonderful hospitality. Kiki, best laugh in Africa.
Infinity edge pool overlooking a small lagoon with birds, Humphrey, resident hippo, though only briefly above water, a favourite of mine. Excellent food.
Loved the adventurous trips across the river, whether by deep river driving or the boat.

Amazing lodge

I stayed here for two nights as part of a ten night safari in South Luangwa.
The whole experience was amazing from the great location, the Lodge and the game drives.
What really stood out was the pride the staff took in their work and their urge to make your stay as pleasant and enjoyable as possible.
The highlight of the stay here was finding the pride of lions on a giraffe kill.
The number of repeat guests I meet is obvious testament to the quality of the Robin Pope safari experience.

Beautiful lodge

This lodge has gorgeous rooms. Individual rondawels, beautifully appointed, could have spent longer. Super comfortable beds and linen. Food is good, staff are lovely and friendly.

Brilliant safari experience

We stayed at 3 Robin Pope camps in the South Luangwa national park in August 2018. We chose Robin Pope based on their track record and expertise in the area over many years. We started at Tena Tena, moving on to Nsefu and finally Nkwali.

Nkwali was a bit different from the other two camps we stayed at, in that it’s just on the boundary of the national park and requires a short trip across the river via a pontoon (which is in itself an interesting experience). We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Nkwali – each camp has its own unique feel. Even after quite a few game drives, we continued to be amazed by the variety and flora and fauna in the area.

The staff were great. Guides were very knowledgeable and friendly, and we always felt very safe.
