Read 2 traveller reviews of Chindeni

Chindeni is one of the Luangwa's most luxurious, well-furnished bushcamps. Its four impressive tents come complete with large writing desks and deck chairs on a wooden veranda. There's an open-air central dining/bar area on wooden decking, overlooking the permanent Chayumba Lagoon.

Note that Chindeni combines naturally with the other bushcamps which are run by the Bushcamp Company, namely Kuyenda , Chamilandu, Bilimungwe and Kapamba.

Like the others, Chindeni concentrates on walking safaris both from and between the camps, though game-drives (day & night) are also offered. If you want some serious walking in quiet areas on the south side of the park, then this and its sister-camps are good choices.
