enjoy a charming riverside location
Made up of only five guest chalets, Old Mondoro promises an quintessential, back-to-nature safari deep in Zambia’s Lower Zambezi National Park.
Set under a canopy of giant winterthorn trees, Old Mondoro enjoys a charming riverside location. Named after a mythical white lion that used to frequent the area, the experience here is all about reconnecting with the natural world.
As an unfenced property, wild animals are simply a part of camp life. You can expect frequent sightings of buffalo and elephant, as well as waterbuck, baboons and pods of river-bathing hippo. When not wildlife watching from camp, you’ll have a choice of land and water-based activities to enjoy.
Comprising just five uncluttered tents, Old Mondoro ensures a truly private atmosphere for each guest. Every room is equipped with an open-to-the-skies shower and a private deck for watching the natural world go by. Wide reed windows look out onto the Zambezi or the hyacinth-filled channel weaving through camp, whilst the outdoor bath doubles as a plunge pool. Meals are served in an open-sided dining tent, or under the stars in the middle of the Zambezi.
Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
