The
Chinzombo Lodge is a great place to hang your hat between safaris. The staff is
experienced in leading walking and vehicle safaris. After working up and
appetite in the bush, you come back to exquisite meals prepared by expert chefs.
While on a Chinzombo vehicle safari, the animals
seem but an arm's length away. Here, these zebra were taken with a camera without a
zoom lens.
If you like elephants, South Luangwa is the
place to go. The Lodge staff are in continuous contact with the park authorities and
other safari staff in order to have an idea on the location of the large game in the park.
That way you are assured a great safari every time.
Walking safaris are also
offered. Experts take you out on foot where you learn much more than you could in a
vehicle. In this picture, the group walks by a "sausage tree", the fruit
of the tree are eaten by animals in the park. You can learn the answers to questions
like, "Why do Tamarind trees seem to grow mostly on termite mounds?"
Answer: Baboons love to eat Tamarind fruit and use termite mounds as look-out spots for
predators, the seeds get eaten with the fruit and the gastro-intestinal tract does the
rest.
The driving safaris
allow the visitor to get close enough to watch a mother elephant and her baby as they
rejoin their group.
Night safaris allow you to
see the world of the nocturnal animals. Stop but meters away from lionesses during a
hunt. The safari guides turn off the spot light and the warning cries of the gazelle
and antelope can be heard in the night.
Walking safaris can take you along the edge of the Luangwa river to observe groups of hippos and crocodiles floating in the cool comfort of the water.
