Sausage Tree

About

Named after the striking sausage trees that line the riverbank, the camp combines classic safari style with contemporary luxury and warm Zambian hospitality. Privately owned and operated, Sausage Tree Camp has built a reputation for highly personalised service, outstanding guiding and an intimate atmosphere that feels exclusive without being overly formal. Its riverfront setting creates a constant connection to the wildlife and natural rhythms of the Lower Zambezi ecosystem.

Rooms

Accommodation consists of spacious Bedouin-style luxury suites and family units positioned along the riverbank for privacy and uninterrupted views. Each suite features large beds, elegant en-suite bathrooms, indoor and outdoor showers, and private decks with plunge pools overlooking the Zambezi. Interiors are stylish yet relaxed, blending natural textures and safari-inspired décor with modern comforts.

Dining

Dining at Sausage Tree Camp is refined yet relaxed, with meals served in the open-sided dining area overlooking the river or in atmospheric outdoor settings beneath the stars. Menus focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients and beautifully prepared dishes complemented by excellent South African wines. Bush breakfasts, riverside lunches and sunset cocktails add memorable touches to the culinary experience.

Activity

Activities at Sausage Tree Camp are centred around the diverse landscapes and waterways of the Lower Zambezi. Expert-led game drives offer sightings of elephants, lions, leopards, wild dogs and abundant birdlife, while canoe safaris along the Zambezi channels provide a uniquely peaceful and intimate wildlife perspective. Boat cruises, catch-and-release fishing, walking safaris and photographic opportunities further enrich the experience, making the camp especially appealing for guests seeking both adventure and tranquillity.
