Experience Untamed Luxury in a UNESCO World Heritage Site
Welcome to Chewore Safari Retreat, an exclusive sanctuary nestled at the remote and pristine confluence of the Zambezi and Chewore Rivers. Located on the border of the famed Chewore North Safari Area—a UNESCO World Heritage Site—this is a destination where few have the privilege to venture. Here, the wild heart of Africa beats freely, offering an intimate and unforgettable encounter with nature.
We offer two distinct ways to experience this unparalleled wilderness: the secluded luxury of our riverside lodge or the unparalleled “suite-style” camping under the African sky.
The Lodge: Unrivalled Riverside Seclusion
The Campsite: “Camping in a Suite”
Consistently praised by our regulars as ‘Camping in a Suite,’ our campsites redefine outdoor luxury. Each private site on the riverbank includes:
At Chewore, we share our home with the true owners of the land. With no fences around the lodge or campsite, you are a guest in their territory. It’s not uncommon to be visited by majestic elephants, graceful eland, formidable buffalo, and a variety of other game, from the timid civet to the occasional lion. This is an authentic, unfiltered African experience.
Photography
From the soft blue haze of a forest morning to an elephant at the water’s edge and the dramatic dive of a Fish Eagle, every moment is a photo opportunity. Leave with a camera roll full of breathtaking memories.
Premier Zambezi Fishing
Cast your line into one of the world’s most legendary rivers. The Zambezi is a nature lover’s paradise, teeming with over 20 species including the fierce Tigerfish (all operated on a catch-and-release basis). The serene absence of crowds, accompanied by abundant birdlife and wildlife, makes fishing here an absolute pleasure.
Birding Paradise
With over 400 species, including the resident Pel’s Fishing Owl and the iconic African Fish Eagle, Chewore is a veritable haven for birdwatchers.
Game Viewing & Sunset Cruises
Adventure awaits on the water. Embark on a sunset cruise with gourmet treats prepared by our resident chef. Glide downriver scouting for elephant, hippo, crocodile, and kudu as the African sun paints the sky in fiery hues. For a more grounded experience, take a guided walk through our enchanting Albida forest within the camp.
Island Drinks Sundowner Experience
For the ultimate sundowner, we offer an unforgettable “Island Drinks” experience. Feel the sand beneath your feet, a chilled drink in your hand, and the Zambezi flowing before you as the sun sets in a spectacular display. It’s the perfect way to wind down an African day.
Your Unforgettable African Privilege Awaits
Chewore Safari Retreat is more than a destination; it’s a rare and privileged encounter with the soul of wild Africa. Whether you seek the comfort of our lodge or the adventurous spirit of our campsite, your story in the wilderness begins here.
