The newly refurbished Bilimungwe Bushcamp has been done very tastefully,with the water holes providing lots of entertainment with herds of elephants visiting and then walking through the camp between the houses. We were there in the old Bili two years ago. Excellent hosting from Mike and his team and award winning Manda giving great walks through the bush. How those... More

If you're looking for a real safari experience, go to South Luangwa National Park in Zambia and spend some time in the bush at Bilimungwe, part of the Bushcamp Company. My wife and I didn't know what to expect on our first safari but were pleasantly surprised to find accommodations and service second to none in a remote area surrounded... More

Don't come here if you want to see herds of wildebeest (there aren't any in the park). But there is almost everything else. We stayed here for 8 days in November, having stayed for 5 days in 2008 (before it was renovated). The new camp really works, is very luxurious, and nothing has been spoiled by the transition. The three... More

I stayed at Bilimungwe Bushcamp for 2 days. What an amazing experience. Mike was a fantastic host and Manda my guide had exceptional knowledge and expertise out in the Bush. I cannot rate my time at the camp highly enough. The food, service and attention to detail in the rooms were fantastic. It made my whole experience of South Luangwa... More

We stayed at Bilimungwe for our first 3 nights in Africa. The camp was completely rebuilt last year and it really shows. It is a beautiful place, the rooms are magnificent, everything done is wood, even the sink and showers. We had a private waterhole that brought a wide variety of game during the days. The staff was excellent, responding... More

Bilimungwe is buried deep in South Luangwa, and sited around a couple of waterholes. Overall we thought each of the 4 private rooms had been impeccably designed, each having a huge floorspace split into living room, bedroom and bathroom. The sublime extra touch was the outside shower (there is an indoor one as well) which was a joy in the... More

We stayed at Bilimungwe for the first 3 nights of our honeymoon and can't recommend the place highly enough. It is truly in the middle of nowhere, very tastefully decorated, lovely huge rooms with indoor and out door showers overlooking the watering holes and excellent food. Its intimate, there are only 4 rooms. The guide Manda's knowledge was astounding &... More

We saw amazing game, and the whole camp had been renovated since the last time we went. This is five star luxury deep in the bush. Manda, the guide, is incredible and Mike is the most friendly host we have come across in the bushcamps. I would recommend staying here to all of my friends and family. No matter what... More
