Sausage Tree Camp offers a chic & intimate, 5 star river safari & authentic bush experience in the Lower Zambezi National Park. The camp comprises 7 luxury, modern styled suites with high canvas roofs, they are a novel design and one that has become synonymous with this camp, the bathrooms again are open-air and have views to the river. Sausage Tree recently underwent renovations, and since then, each tent has its’ own plunge pool and deck. In addition to these ‘signature tents’ there are 2 suites that are of similar design but are considerably larger with baths, more furniture and their own plunge pools. In my opinion these suites challenge the suites at Chongwe for best accommodation units in the Lower Zambezi. There is also the ‘Kigelia House’ with 2 rooms for families along with a living area in between with a small pool in front.

Each guest room has its own muchinda (personal butler), 24-hour power for the lights, plus overhead fans and power sockets for charging devices. The main lodge is very open, with a huge deck right to the riverfront with plenty of seating and even a telescope on offer to get a close up view of the nearby wildlife. There is also a large swimming pool. Activities at Sausage Tree are incredibly varied. Uniquely for this park, private guiding is provided as standard, so you can really tailor your safari to your own interests. You can enjoy boat trips on the river, game drives, guided walks and fishing. A particular highlight is a morning canoe trip down the channel adjacent to the camp. The camp is situated in the heart of the park, and is surrounded by some particularly pretty game loops.
