These mobile tents are used on Robin Pope walking safaris between Nsefu Camp and Tena Tana Camp.

Up to four guests are allowed per tour; six guests are allowed when touring as a private group of friends. Guests can look forward to an intimate and beautiful bush experience in a tranquil part of South Luangwa National Park teeming with wildlife.

On such walking safaris you will encounter big game on foot, especially elephants and buffalo. It is also possible to bump into lions and sightings of leopards are not uncommon. Therefore a minimum age rule applies.

Your walking guide will be accompanied by an armed ranger and an assistant who will carry drinks and cookies. You should be confident to walk for 4-5 hours, which includes many stops to observe the wildlife. The walked distance in the morning is about 6-10 km. The guides will explain the fauna and flora of the area and you will learn interesting facts about the behavior of the animals and the use of plants and trees. The group usually returns to camp between 10 and 11am, with lunch waiting for them. Later in the afternoon the group will go for another relatively short walk, returning to the camp just before sunset.

The walk-in tents are equipped with a mattress on the floor; a bush shower and simple WC are located nearby. Dinner is prepared over an open fire and served under the stars. Accommodation is simple yet perfectly adequate; the camp is lit by paraffin lamps and the campfire - best to bring your own torches.
