Tena Tena
Tena Tena Camp, nestled under mahogany trees in the exclusive Nsefu sector of South Luangwa National Park, was one of the first Robin Pope safaris and has become a favourite amongst safari lovers over the years. The focus here is still on expert guiding, flexible activities and fantastic game viewing.
The South Luangwa National Park marks the end of The Great Rift Valley, one of the last remaining unspoilt wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa.
About
Situated in the exclusive Nsefu Sector Tena Tena sits nestled under a magnificent and thick grove of mahogany trees. On a double-tiered river bank each room enjoys its own private view onto a long stretch of the Luangwa River. It is sandwiched between the river and a complex lagoon system under a magnificent mahogany grove and is a magnet for wildlife. The camp is small and intimate with a maximum of twelve guests, and is run by an experienced team who are all passionate about their jobs.
Rooms
The six tents are very private, with plenty of space between them and each with its own window onto a magnificent stretch of the Luangwa River where the hippos wallow and the lions roam. The en-suite bathrooms are spacious and open to the elements, designed to copy nature with curved walls around the trees and simple subtle colours and a view from every facility. Each tent is specifically located to maximise privacy both in the rooms, bathrooms, and on the verandahs, with comfortable sitting areas
Activity
At Tena Tena, the focus revolves around wildlife, and there's an abundance of it! Explore the Nsefu Sector, where the camp is situated, or the main section of the park via open-top Land Cruisers during game drives. Boat access allows you to venture into the broader park, but once you experience the exclusive Nsefu region, you'll be reluctant to leave. Walking is an integral part of the Tena Tena experience, with guides who are not only knowledgeable but also inspiring.
