About ATC - Chitembe Main Camp

Chitembe Main Camp offers an exceptional safari experience—renowned as one of Africa’s premier wildlife destinations by land, foot, and water. Set in the eastern reaches of Mana Pools National Park along the Zambezi River, it blends natural beauty with understated luxury. With expert guiding, warm hospitality, and superb cuisine, Chitembe proves that world-class safaris need not come at world-class prices.

True to the mantra of “location, location, location,” Chitembe lies beneath ancient trees,. Central guest areas include a lounge, dining area, bar, pool, and outdoor boma—spaces for connection or quiet reflection.

Accommodation consists of spacious, elegantly furnished tents in twin or king configurations. Each en-suite tent features a generous deck with sweeping Zambezi views. Quality bedding, fans, and mosquito nets ensure restful sleep.

Surrounded by diverse habitats—from mopane woodland to open floodplains—Chitembe offers expertly guided game drives, walking safaris, and exclusive boat-based game viewing, with full access to the Zambezi.

Enhancing its allure is Chitembe’s private island—a secluded river sanctuary for intimate wildlife encounters.

The camp curates unforgettable moments: picnic breakfasts, bush lunches, sundowners beneath the trees. Fishing is offered on a catch-and-release basis .

At Chitembe Main Camp, your safari becomes more than a journey—it becomes a memory etched in wilderness, authenticity, and awe.

Luxury Tent
Accommodation is offered in spacious, elegantly appointed safari tents, available in both twin and king configurations. Each en-suite tent features a generous private deck, complete with comfortable seating from which guests can enjoy sweeping views of the majestic Zambezi River. Inside, the tents are thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. High-quality bedding, ceiling or pedestal fans, and protective mosquito nets ensure a restful night’s sleep. A writing desk is also provided for those wishing to journal their safari memories or simply enjoy a quiet moment of reflection. The en-suite bathrooms are equally expansive and well-appointed. Each features a screened layout with a wardrobe, twin basins, a shower, and a flush toilet—combining modern convenience with understated bush elegance. Set beneath a canopy of ancient Mopane and Jackalberry trees, the walkways that lead to the tents meander through lush natural surroundings, resembling a woodland forest more than the stereotypical African savanna. This unique setting adds a sense of seclusion and serenity, enhancing the immersive safari experience.
