Time + Tide Chinzombo rests on a sweeping bend of the Luangwa River, blending barefoot luxury with the romance of the bush. Six expansive villas come with private plunge pools, deep tubs and shaded decks where elephants and hippos wander by. Days begin with expertly guided game drives in South Luangwa, famed for high densities of leopard, lion and wild dog, and continue with unhurried bush walks that reveal tracks, birds and the park’s seasonal magic. Between activities, unwind in airy lounges, visit the small spa, or linger over fresh, locally inspired cuisine. Evenings bring boat crossings, campfire stories and star-filled skies, before you drift to sleep to nightjars and distant lion calls.
