Kaingo and. Mwamba are pure magic!
My husband and I just returned home from a fabulous trip to Mwamba and Kaingo. The camps are different, but both are wonderful. Matt and Charlie are warm and gracious hosts. Sly is an incredible guide, very knowledgable. The food at Mwamba was delicious, prepared by Medi and his crew. Mwamba is a true bush camp experience, and the game is plentiful.
Kaingo is fabulous. Izzy and Yvonne weave their magic, and Skye and his staff prepare delicious meals...very fresh and tasty. You do not go hungry at either camp. Patrick, our guide, is phenomenal. He knows so much about the African flora and fauna, and presents it with a great personality.
We have been at both camps many times, and the draw that these camps have are their remoteness from the main gate. Sometimes you feel as if you have the whole South Luangwa Park to yourself, which is heaven. The animals are spectacular and we saw plenty.
We met a lot of wonderful people at both camps, and my husband and I both said it was our best visit ever, of course we said that after each trip!
If you want a true African safari adventure look no further than Mwamba and Kaingo. Derek Shenton has produced two gems of safari camps. The staff at each camp are wonderful and very professional.
A few tears were shed on our part when we left. It was a very excellent adventure.

Photographer's Paradise
We have been fortunate to visit Africa on 6 separate safaris staying at many of the best lodges on offer. Kaingo rates as one of the best and one of our favourites for the outstanding photographic opportunities. Couple this with excellent guides as well as lodge staff and management and you have an outstanding safari operation. The hides provide excellent close up experiences that many others cannot provide. I have no doubt that we will return to this great location in the not too distant future

An amazing experience in the bush with wonderful game drives while staying in a beautiful camp.
The staff were friendly and attentive and our guide on the game drives was most knowledgeable and generous with his time. The water hole at the camp was a real bonus enabling us to view close up so many animals and birds. I would recommend Shenton Safaris to any one interested in visiting Zambia on a safari holiday.
