Lying within the Norman Carr Safaris portfolio, Time + Tide Chinzombo reaches new heights in design, elegance, and sophistication while maintaining a close adherence to Carr's original low-impact conservation ethos. Limited to six sumptuous villas, the lodge promises a very exclusive and intimate experience, making it ideal for honeymooners and small private groups.
Designed by a renowned architectural team, the lodge is situated in a towering forest on a loop of the Luangwa River. Fitting seamlessly into the beautiful surroundings, Chinzombo's villas appear to float above the ground, tucked into the forest canopy, with commanding views of the river below.
Set in a private concession, Chinzombo offers direct access to Zambia's flagship reserve, the South Luangwa National Park. Head out on game drives to track the big game for which this park is famous, returning to relax on your viewing deck or beside your private swimming pool. Open year-round and making an ideal combination safari with Victoria Falls and the Lower Zambezi National Park, Chinzombo is destined to become a major feature on the Zambian safari calendar.

Villa
Six luxurious villas are tucked into the tree line overlooking the river and forest beyond. Each is designed with an exquisite eye for detail and flow - the open verandah blends seamlessly with the interior spaces through a series of generously proportioned windows.
Substantial bathrooms boast showers and gorgeous tubs, while the plunge pool on your private deck offers a quiet spot to cool off in the heat of the day. Bedrooms are ventilated through an innovative and eco-friendly design that ensures a cool, peaceful night’s sleep.
One of the villas has an expanded design allowing for family use and can sleep up to five guests.
Facilities
The epitome of simplicity and sophistication, Chinzombo takes Zambia's South Luangwa experience to an entirely new level. Set on a bend in the river where Norman Carr himself had a camp many years ago, the lodge pays homage to his pioneering spirit and innovative approach to conservation.
Embracing new technologies to minimize environmental impact and utilizing recycled or locally sourced, sustainable materials in Chinzombo’s construction, the architects have successfully retained the spirit of Old Africa in an otherwise modern design ethic. The result is a seamless blend of bygone style infused with a distinctive freshness that offers discerning travelers a truly original setting.
Take advantage of the lodge's range of amenities: from Wi-Fi access to spa facilities and a yoga mat in the room, from your private plunge pool to plenty of shady decks for armchair game viewing. When it comes to activities, Chinzombo offers day and night drives along with guided nature walks and cultural visits to the local village.
Dining
Sip on a freshly brewed tea or coffee as you watch the dawn mist rise off the river before a light breakfast and your morning game drive. As the mid-morning temperature begins to rise, return to the camp’s shady grove of trees and a hearty brunch on the terrace. With a breeze rustling the leaves above, relax by the pool or indulge in a siesta on your private verandah, rousing yourself in the late afternoon to sample the sumptuous high tea.
After your afternoon game drive, evenings are given over to cocktails, hippo serenades, and the convivial conversation of a crackling fireplace. Dinner is served on crisp linen by the soft glow of candlelight. Add an excellent wine list and the wild symphony of the African night, and you will find a few better gastronomic experiences on safari.
