Overlooking the snorting hippo pods of the mighty Zambezi, Sausage Tree Camp epitomises relaxed bush chic. It lies in the Lower Zambezi National Park surrounded by all the incredible flora and fauna of the river, plentiful game, including large populations of lion and leopard and unusual species such as the honey badger, porcupine and wild dog.
Voted 'Best in Style' by Harpers Bazare, the camp lies in the shade of an enormous Sausage Tree. Six simple yet luxurious Bedouin-style tents with polished rosewood floors have teak four posters, en-suite, open-air bathrooms and personal butlers. Each has stunning vistas over the river which generate rave reviews from all who visit, as does the superb French cuisine with an African twist. Activities in this little visited and wildlife rich area include night and day game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, escorted walks and guided canoe trips. For fishermen the Zambezi provides probably the best tiger fish challenge in the world. A sundowner cruise while gliding past drinking animals silhouetted against a flaming African sunset must surely be one of life's perfect experiences.
