"Chindeni review"
On the transfer from Luangwa River Lodge to Chindeni we had a very warm welcome from the manager of Bushcamp Co in Mfuwe, same on the return to Nsefu. Thanks. Very good lunch at Mfuwe.
Very beautiful rooms with excellent views from the own veranda." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 4n in Malawi

"Chindeni review"
"Chindeni review"
One sugestion to the owners: We would have liked chairs on the deck instead of hammocks as we like to sit outside and write and also to watch the birds through binnoculars and found the hammock quite awkward for this." See all these reviews: 22n in Zambia
"Slightly disappointed at Chindeni"
We enjoyed the morning walks at Chindeni but we were not impressed with the evening game drives. We covered the same ground every evening until well after 8pm & were unlucky in that we saw little game. Consequently, dinner was quite late & could not be really appreciated. We were also suprised that there were 7 guests in camp when we had expected a maximum of 6. This was too many for a walk, we were at the back & could not hear the guide & there were too many in the Land Rover.
On a positive note, Chindeni is in a stunning location & James, the manager, did an excellent job with hospitality. The food was the best of all the camps that we visited and we had plenty of fresh fruit, salads & vegetables." See all these reviews: 10n in Zambia; 4n in Malawi
"A beautiful situation and very smart bushcamp"
Manager James was a good host, our walks well led by Peter, and all the staff were most friendly. We really enjoyed the special touch of an intimate dining experience on our own deck. The food was excellent, varied and imaginative.
The lack of screening of the bathroom did not trouble us, but it could be a problem with others sharing a room." See all these reviews: 11n in Zambia
"A new camp in a great location"
It had only reponed after refurbishment in August and it still felt that there were a few teething issues. Compared to the others the food was not as good and the guide was a little rushed. He seemed to be tryng to find things rather than take time to enjoy the scene. However the Crimson Bee Eaters were amazing." See all these reviews: 14n in Zambia
"breathtaking rooms at chindeni"
the game viewing was very good with excellent lion leopard and honeybadger sightings plus all the other animals and birds. we just thought the guide peter was a bit cautious and by the book on the walks which is great if you havent been but if you have you got the feeling youd heard it all before having said that we do realise that he has to cater for all guests and writing this with the knowledge of what was to come perhaps were being a little unfair so sorry peter your still a great guide who gave us some great sightings
while people will no doubt go away from here raving about the rooms we feel the real star of the show was ed the camp manager a real friendly person great round camp and at meal times he makes all guests feel right at home if he dosnt mind us saying so a hugh grant type who people carnt help but like and want to return to spend some time with a great asset to the company thank you ed for making us feel so welcome" See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia
