In the heart of Africa, where the rivers whisper ancient tales and the valleys echo with songs of the wild, Zambia awaits – a land where nature’s beauty is mirrored by the warmth of its people. We invite you to step into this world, where every moment is a celebration of life, heritage, and the spirit of Zambia.
The Pulse of the Wild
Zambia’s untamed wilderness is more than a destination; it’s a way of life. Here, the rhythm of nature is unbroken, and the land pulses with the vitality of its wild inhabitants. In our camps, you’ll find yourself at the intersection of adventure and serenity, where the day begins with the calls of the bush and ends beneath a blanket of stars.
Picture this: as the sun rises, painting the sky in hues of gold, you embark on a guided safari, the crisp morning air filled with the scent of wild sage. Lions stalk silently through the grass, elephants gather by the river’s edge, and a symphony of birds announces the dawn. These moments, raw and unfiltered, are the soul of Zambia.
Stories of the Zambian People
But the soul of Zambia is not just found in its landscapes; it lives in the stories of its people. The Zambian culture, with its rich traditions and vibrant customs, is a tapestry woven into the fabric of Time + Tide. As you journey with us, you’ll find yourself immersed in this culture – whether it’s through the rhythmic beat of a drum, the intricate artistry of their crafts, or the taste of a meal prepared with love and history.
Empowering Women
During your stay, we encourage you to engage with our community initiatives, where you’ll meet the women who are the backbone of the Time + Tide Foundation‘s Female Empowerment programme, and the wonderful women they work with daily. Their stories are ones of resilience, strength, and a deep connection to their land – a connection that we are privileged to get to share with you.
A Culinary Adventure
No journey to Zambia would be complete without indulging in its culinary delights. At Time + Tide, we celebrate the flavours of Zambia with dishes that bring together the finest local ingredients. Imagine fresh bream from the river, seasoned with a touch of traditional spices, or a hearty nshima served with a side of greens harvested from our community gardens. Each meal is a journey in itself, a story told through taste, texture, and tradition.
Conservation at the Core
Our commitment to Zambia goes beyond luxury and adventure; it’s rooted in a deep respect for the land and its people. Conservation is at the core of everything we do through the initiatives of the Time + Tide Foundation, from protecting the habitats of endangered species to supporting sustainable tourism practices that benefit local communities. When you travel with us, you become a part of this mission – helping to preserve Zambia’s natural and cultural heritage for generations to come.
Discover the Heart of Zambia
As your journey unfolds, you’ll discover that Zambia is more than just a place – it’s a feeling, an experience that stays with you long after you’ve left. It’s in the laughter shared around a campfire, the silence of the bush at dawn, and the smiles of the people you meet along the way. This is the heart and soul of Zambia, and it’s waiting for you to explore.
So come, embrace the wild, the culture, the flavours, and the stories of Zambia. Let us guide you on a journey that will touch your heart, enrich your soul, and leave you forever connected to this extraordinary land.

"The uniqueness of being in a camp with only four safari tents is the ultimate feeling of luxury. Luwi overlooks a wide open grassland that on my first morning we watched a high speed chase - a pack of Wilddogs on a hunt. It was exhilarating to watch and sent our heart rates through the sky adding a lot of chatter and laughter once the pack had passed by."

"The authenticity and remoteness of the seasonal camps will be a special experience that I will long to return to. There really is no place on earth that you can really escape like you can at the seasonal camps. Falling asleep at Kakuli to the distant lion roars and waking to the call of the fish eagle - really what a magical walking safari!"
Lara, Guest Time + Tide Kakuli
"This is the most magical place you're ever likely to experience. Nestled under a grove of imposing Albida trees, it is clearly favoured by the many elephant who graze on the Albida pods. Their presence adds an incredibly special energy to the camp. "

"To my sheer joy and amazement, I walked into the main camp area one morning after sleeping in, to witness a herd of elephants crossing the Luangwa River. I was alone in camp at the time and that sighting will be the highlight of my trip to Africa… somehow, the solitude, the sound of the beautiful animals swishing through the water and me being the only one to witness it made it quite a spiritual experience."
"Our family had the most joyful time at Chongwe, really everything was perfect and every detail taken care of. The team ensured we had the best time at every activity (even tiger fishing!). We felt privileged to spend a few days here and look forward to returning."
Richard, Guest at Time + Tide Chongwe
"Our stay at Nsolo was truly unforgettable! We were captivated by the authentic and secluded setting, and the sleepout under the stunning African stars was the absolute highlight of our trip. We highly recommend this unique experience to anyone looking for an adventure off the beaten path."

"Chinzombo is a stunning lodge in a beautiful location of the South Luangwa. The rooms are luxurious and spacious, with a deck and plunge pool overlooking the Luangwa River. There is always an abundance of wildlife around the rooms, we had a banded mongoose, bushbuck, elephants and hippo's - just to name a few."
