The Luangwa Valley, which marks the end of the Great Rift Valley, is one of the last unspoilt wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa.  It covers an area of over 9000 sq. km. through which the meandering Luangwa River runs.  The oxbow lagoons, woodland and plains of the valley host huge concentrations of game - including elephant, buffalo, leopard, lion, giraffe, hippo - and over 400 species of birds. Nsefu Camp lies on a sweeping bend of the river, 12 kms north of Tena Tena Camp.  The view of the river is superb and includes a terraced area where game grazes during the day.  Nsefu dates back to the early 50s and was the first photographic safari camp in Zambia.  The camp lies in the heart of the undeveloped Nsefu sector and offers total comfort in remoteness and seclusion.  FACILITIES  The bar, tucked in beside a huge extinct termite mound, overlooks a waterhole that is very productive for game, especially leopard at night.  Breakfast is served at dawn on the grass terraces in front of camp.  Open from June to October. No. of Bedrooms 12 guests can be accommodated in 6 thatched rondavels, each with a spacious bathroom.  Lighting is supplied by generator and solar lamps.  Each room has a clear view of the river, through large windows and from the wooden verandah. Activities Walking (including Walking Safaris) - the only way to really discover the secrets of the bush.  Walks are led by an experienced naturalist and accompanied by an armed game scout. Game Viewing Drives - conducted in open, four-wheel drive vehicles by knowledgeable safari guides.  Special game viewing seats provide excellent viewing and opportunities for photography. Night Drives - set out in the afternoon.  Later, after watching the sun set over the river with a sundowner in hand, the drive continues with a powerful spotlight.  The nocturnal world of the bush is witnessed from owls and genets to hunting lions and the graceful leopard.
