"Setting the standard"
I managed to miss a flight, thereby arriving late and after dark, and spoiling all the arrangements but the staff took this in their stride. I was particularly touched that they'd realised I'd missed lunch and brought me a snack to eat on the journey from the airport. As I was the only guest in camp that night, the entire camp lined up to greet me on arrival which was an hilarious warm welcome. Hello Gloria, John, Albert, Million, Esther and everyone!
Location, location, location - Nsolo on the banks of the dry Luwi is just beautiful. Utter peace: I did have one morning in camp , enjoying the quiet (by choice) when my fellow guests were all out on drives/walks; even the camp staff were barely a murmur. At night there were the darkest of dark skies with fantastic stars and Mars glowing red. One evening we arrived back from the afternoon game drive to find the dinner table 'missing' - it had been moved onto the river bank so we could eat under the stars by lamplight. So very glamorous in the full sense of the word.
We saw six lion cubs idly playing on my first game drive, which set the tone for the rest of my safari week." See all these reviews: 10n in Zambia

"Nsolu Bushcamp excellent"
"Lovely Camp"
The other guests were lovely, but as a solo traveler, the hosting was lacklustre. Prince was a great guide, and we had some wonderful sightings. With regret, I feel I must mention the behaviour of the ZAWA scout and guide on the walk from Luwi to Nsolo. The scout was throwing things (clumps of earth I think) at a herd of buffalo to get them to move along." See all these reviews: 14n in Zambia
"Warmest welcome at Nsolo Bushcamp"
Overall a very enjoyable, comfortable and relaxed bushcamp, It feels secluded, which I liked.
Interesting walks with very knowledgeable guides (Friday and Dr. Phil).
Would love to return and arrange a "sleep out" the next time!" See all these reviews: 17n in Zambia
"Nsolo Bushcamp"
The guiding was brilliant by Simon and Filomen
The proximity of the lions to the camp and their nighttime roaring only added to our exciting experience" See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 1n in South Africa

"Do the sleep out!!!"
On our walking safaris, on one day, we came over a hill & there was a giant herd of buffalo. When we returned to camp & came up another hill, there was a herd of elephants we had to slowly go around. Wow!!!
Nsolo's manager, Kolo, is such a fun person & I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. Phil is a superb guide & Bottle was an excellent ranger." See all these reviews: 9n in Zambia; 4n in Malawi
"Never solo at Nsolo."
Spacious chalet, comfortable stay, often joined by elephants for afternoon tea. The food was excellent remembering that this is a 'bush camp' avec comfort.
Wild dogs regular at this location always a bonus.
Mild mannered excellent guide in Philemon, diligent Sarah as host and a friendly team throughout.
Thank you to everyone, a wonderful experience shared with some other wonderful guests." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia
