About Lebala
Be left in awe. Lebala means 'wide open spaces', and the camp is located in the Kwando Reserve in the greater Kwando-Linyanti region, which spans an area 30 times the size of Manhattan and boasts impressive carrying capacity thanks to astonishing ecological biodiversity.
Lebala is situated in the open floodplains close to the Kwando River, home to a wide variety of Africa's plains game, such as zebra, wildebeest, impala, giraffe, and tsessebe. The tremendous variety of wildlife also includes elephants, hippos, buffalo and the ever-present predators of lion, cheetah, and hyena.
The camp has nine custom-designed tents with mosquito net walls, allowing an unobstructed flow of cooling breezes and stunning views. Each has its own viewing deck and spacious bathroom with double outside showers. One tent has an additional adjoining twin room for family use. The main areas of the camp include an elevated viewing hide, a swimming pool, a communal fireplace and dining room, a safari shop, a bar, and a lounge area with a small library.

Lebala Private Enclave
Kwando’s Private Enclaves operate as ‘private camps within a camp’ that bring enhanced exclusivity and privacy to small group travel.
Lebala's Private Enclave is a private mini-main area tucked away on the eastern side of the camp and has stunning sunrise views down the channel that is an offshoot of the Kwando River. The group can enjoy their own private dining, lounge, bar, pool and fireplace on an exclusive basis (although they are free to explore and enjoy the amenities of the rest of the camp).
The Private Enclave offers dedicated staff and, combined with a Private Guide for your group, this means you get a tailored schedule where activities and downtime are planned around your particular interests.
The Private Enclave can be booked for 2 to 10 people and are ideally suited to VVIPs, friends and family, photographic and academic groups, and any safari where you are looking for a more exclusive experience.
