The Details
The Lodge
The camp has been artfully designed to harmonise with the local ecosystem. The elevated wooden boardwalks serve a dual purpose: they protect the delicate forest floor and allow animals—ranging from antelope to leopards—to pass through the camp unhindered. This enables guests to observe the rhythm of the bush safely from a superior vantage point.
The lodge is anchored by two magnificent communal spaces:
- The Zambezi Deck: The social heart of the lodge. This area hosts the main dining room and high tea service. From the swimming pool or the lounge, guests can watch elephants and buffalo crossing the river to the islands.
- The Mushika Deck: Situated at the far end of the boardwalk, this deck offers a quieter, more secluded atmosphere. It overlooks a popular watering hole and the Mushika River floodplain, making it an ideal spot for birdwatching and observing the resident baboon troop.
Accommodation
Dulini Anabezi blends modern sophistication with authentic African luxury across twelve magnificent tented suites. Each suite is positioned to maximise privacy and offers sweeping views of the Zambezi River, the floodplains, or the Kulefu Channel.
- The Suites: Guests may choose between king or twin configurations. Each room opens onto a spacious wooden deck featuring a private plunge pool—the perfect spot to watch buffalo graze as you cool off.
- Bathrooms: Each tent boasts an elegant indoor en-suite bathroom with a Victorian-style bathtub, complemented by an outdoor bathroom and shower for a true ‘under the stars’ experience.
- The Family Tent: Designed for those travelling together, this unit comprises two interconnected rooms (one king, one twin) sharing a large viewing deck and plunge pool.
Dining
Culinary life at Anabezi revolves around the elements. Mornings begin with breakfast overlooking the river, while High Tea on the Zambezi Deck serves as a sophisticated precursor to the afternoon’s activities. As night falls, the campfire becomes the focal point; guests gather for sundowners to share the day’s stories before enjoying dinner under the Zambian sky.
Wildlife and Activities
Dulini Anabezi offers a comprehensive safari programme that explores the Zambezi Valley by both land and water.
By Land
- Game Drives: Conducted in customised open vehicles during the early morning and late afternoon when predators are most active. Expect to see lions, leopards, African painted dogs, and vast herds of buffalo.
- Walking Safaris: Experience the bush on foot in the very place the walking safari was pioneered. Accompanied by a professional guide and an armed National Parks Wildlife Officer, you will discover the intricate details of the ecosystem often missed from a vehicle.
- Night Drives: A thrilling glimpse into the nocturnal world, providing the chance to spot civets, genets, and hunting cats under the stars.
- Photographic Safaris: The lodge provides modified vehicles and beanbags for photographers, ensuring the perfect angle for every shot in the shifting forest light.
By Water

- Water Safaris: Our custom-fitted pontoon boats provide a stable platform for viewing crocodiles and aquatic birds at eye level.
