À vivre

Set on the wild shores of Lake Kariba, Changa Safari Camp offers a rare experience between water and bush. The lodge faces Matusadona National Park, a protected territory where wildlife thrives. Its style blends African charm, natural materials and understated elegance.
Here, everything invites you to slow down: sunsets gild the mountains, calm waters mirror the sky, elephants cross the beaches. The camp offers a warm, intimate atmosphere, where guests feel immediately connected to nature.
Its strengths? Sweeping views over the lake, inspiring isolation, a wealth of activities, and genuine hospitality. Changa is a peaceful, authentic retreat, designed for travellers seeking simple, honest emotions.

Layout

The camp has 8 luxurious tents, set beneath the trees with views over the lake. Communal areas include a spacious open lounge, a panoramic terrace and a library corner. The dining room, whether open-air or covered, offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
An infinity pool overlooks the lake, ideal for spotting crocodiles and hippos in the distance. The overall setting is intimate, elegant and bathed in natural light.

For your children

Children are welcome at Changa Safari Camp.
Children under 16 cannot take part in walks, but may join other activities.

Rooms

Each of the 6 standard tents offers a harmonious blend of olive canvas, natural wood and East African-inspired decor. They sleep two people and are fully enclosed by dedicated mosquito netting, allowing you to sleep with the doors open, lulled by the breeze and the sounds of the bush.
Two interleading family tents round out the offering, designed to let children reach the parents' tent safely and privately.
Each tent has a private bathroom, a safari-style shower and an outdoor area facing the natural surroundings.
The layout favours calm, natural light and a connection to the elements.

Activities offered

Numerous activities are available at Changa Safari Camp. Morning and afternoon safaris are organised in open safari vehicles, along with walks led by a professional armed guide.
You can take part in boat safaris, watch birds from the camp's jetty, or try your hand at catching the famous tiger fish, emblematic of Lake Kariba.
For those wanting to take some time to relax, you don't need to venture far from camp to see wildlife, as regular visitors such as elephants, monkeys, squirrels and occasionally a leopard like to wander through.
Every activity unfolds in the spirit of Matusadona: gently, deeply, at nature's own pace.
