Take a light aircraft from Lusaka (LUN) to Chunga Airstrip ~1 h 20 flight time, then followed by ~40–45 m road/boat transfer to camp. By road: ~3½–4 h from Lusaka via Hook Bridge.
All suites share similar layout with interiors that are contemporary-African with a freestanding bath (often on the deck), indoor and outdoor showers, double vanities, mosquito-netted bed, safe, and fan. It's an easy, polished canvas set-up that drinks in the water views. Family Tents add a second bedroom (curtain-separated) and a bigger bathroom layout so parents can exhale while kids spread out.
Flexible, à la carte dining in the river-edge boma and dining room, with bush breakfasts, picnic set-ups, sunset & lunch cruises, and easy private-deck meals. Menus are seasonal, modern-African and unhurried.
15 kg soft duffel + 3 kg hand luggage for light aircraft; neutral layers, wide-brim hat, closed shoes for walks, a light fleece/windbreaker for winter evenings, and spare fast memory cards
Book a lunch cruise on the E-Boat for long, quiet river time. You should schedule a floating-spa treatment between drives and pair Ila with Chisa Busanga - it’s a simple ~20-minute flight between Chunga and Busanga airstrips or ~5 hours by road through superb scenery.
