Time + Tide Chinzombo
Overview of Time + Tide Chinzombo
Zambia, South Luangwa National Park
Lying within the Norman Carr Safaris portfolio, Time + Tide Chinzombo reaches new heights in design, elegance and sophistication while maintaining a close adherence to Carr’s original low-impact conservation ethos. Limited to six sumptuous villas, the lodge promises a very exclusive and intimate experience, making it ideal for honeymooners and small private groups.
Designed by a renowned architectural team, the lodge is situated in a towering forest on a loop of the Luangwa River. Fitting seamlessly into the beautiful surroundings, Chinzombo’s villas appear to float above the ground, tucked into the forest canopy, with commanding views of the river below.
Set in a private concession, Chinzombo offers direct access to Zambia’s flagship reserve, the South Luangwa National Park. Head out on game drives to track the big game for which this park is famous, returning to relax on your viewing deck or beside your private swimming pool. Open year round and making an ideal combination safari with Victoria Falls and the Lower Zambezi National Park, Chinzombo is destined to become a major feature on the Zambian safari calendar.

Rooms at Time + Tide Chinzombo
Unwind and relax, in your own private luxury
Villa
Six luxurious villas are tucked into the tree line overlooking the river and forest beyond. Each is designed with an exquisite eye for detail and flow – the open verandah blends seamlessly with the interior spaces through a series of generously proportioned windows.
Substantial bathrooms boast showers and gorgeous tubs, while the plunge pool on your private deck offers a quiet spot to cool off in the heat of the day. Bedrooms are ventilated through an innovative and eco-friendly design that ensures a cool, peaceful night’s sleep.
One of the villas has an expanded design allowing for family use and can sleep up to five guests.
General Facilities
The epitome of simplicity and sophistication, Chinzombo takes Zambia’s South Luangwa experience to an entirely new level. Set on a bend in the river where Norman Carr himself had a camp many years ago, the lodge pays homage to his pioneering spirit and innovative approach to conservation.
Embracing new technologies to minimise environmental impact and utilising recycled or locally sourced, sustainable materials in Chinzombo's construction, the architects have successfully retained the spirit of Old Africa in an otherwise modern design ethic. The result is a seamless blend of bygone style infused with a distinctive freshness that offers discerning travellers a truly original setting.
Take advantage of the lodge’s range of amenities: from Wi-Fi access to spa facilities and a yoga mat in the room, from your private plunge pool to plenty of shady decks for armchair game viewing. When it comes to activities, Chinzombo offers day and night drives along with guided nature walks and cultural visits to the local village.

Dining
Sip on a freshly brewed tea or coffee as you watch the dawn mist rise off the river before a light breakfast and your morning game drive. As the mid-morning temperature begins to rise, return to the camp's shady grove of trees and a hearty brunch on the terrace. With a breeze rustling the leaves above, relax by the pool or indulge in a siesta on your private verandah, rousing yourself in the late afternoon to sample the sumptuous high tea.
After your afternoon game drive, evenings are given over to cocktails, hippo serenades, and the convivial conversation of a crackling fireplace. Dinner is served on crisp linen by the soft glow of candlelight. Add an excellent wine list and the wild symphony of the African night, and you will find few better gastronomic experiences on safari.

Lovely luxury camp perfect for either starting or ending off a walking safari circuit. Well located with easy access to the camp coming off the afternoon Proflight, since it’s located at the entrance of the park. Diverse activities are on offer, but it has to be noted that you have to cross the river by boat every time you head out onto an activity and there are no guides stationed at the camps themselves.

‘Five-star all the way: from decor to location, this lodge is gorgeous! I love that you access the camp predominantly by boat. Enjoy guided walks, boat trips when water levels are high and 4×4 game drives in one of the best areas of South Luangwa. The rooms are huge with lovely decks to relax on and very comfortable, the food it outrageously good and the staff top-notch. The nearby Mulberry Mongoose jewellery boutique satisfies all your retail therapy needs.’

On the contrary at Chimzombo. That part of the park is open year round and they even had a very laid back leopard whom we saw several times and who actually walked calmly smack dab in front of our jeep. And the camp and facilities are in the “premier” class with superb food as well.

Wildly luxurious with style and elegance previously unseen to the Luangwa Valley. This camp is super-luxurious and has spaicous living areas as well as very spacious villas with private plunge pools and cooled sleeping areas. It is a great way to end your South Luangwa Safari.
