Chendeni was our most rustic camp in our 2 weeks in Botswana and Zambia. The 2.5 hour drive from the main lodge was enough to make you feel the rest of the world had melted away. We spent 4 nights, and frankly the solar lighted and wind-blown lanterns left it very dark at night, but after the first night all... More

Had our first stay in Chendeni in October. Loved the setting -- incredible bird-watching without leaving our tent. Peter is an excellent guide and we had some excellent game viewings. The food was also superb. I recommend it strongly!

Over 3 trips to the Luangwa, cheindeni has always proved to be our go-to camp for spectacular leopard sightings. 4 years ago we were treated to 4 in the same tree - male, female & 2 large sub-adults. This year we had 3 sightings in one day. I wish we had stayed longer as Peter is fantastic and so attentive... More

Chindeni is located in an incredible position overlooking an oxbow lagoon. The best bits include lying in your hammock on your private deck watching the game go by. Peter the Guide is brilliant. The tents were comfortable and food very good.

Chindeni was our second camp on our trip. The location is superb looking over the ox bow lagoon with wildlife all around you. Peter the resident guide is superb - very knowledgeable and experienced and along with the scout Godrick we felt very safe even when we were within 20 metres of a pride of lions during one morning walk...

Second camp out of 3 we stayed at, and the best, this is what it is about, (large) tents on stilts, amazing views on the lagoon/swamp, great food, a manager (James) that knows really well what he's doing and understands what people expect, the size of the camp with only 4 tents keeps it small enough to get the right...

From the moment we arrived, met with a fragranced cold towel and delicious drink, all was beautifully arranged to maximize our experience of The Bush. The staff was excellent, our guide extremely knowledgable about every aspect of the animals, birds, migration, tracking, trees, plants, insects and fish - it almost became a challenge to ask a question he couldn't answer!...

A brilliant experience combining elegant comfort, fabulous food, stunning sights and an amazingly diverse population of animals. Walking in the cool mornings, lounging on a hammock in the heat of the day and watching the splendid animals against a brilliant sunset in the late afternoon/early evening--every moment of our regrettably short 2 days was pitch perfect. The staff was terrific-helpful,... More

Chindeni was our 3rd Bushcamp after Chamilandu and Bilimungwe. We were not disappointed and again it was a beautiful setting overlooking the lagoon. The rooms are large, like Bilimungwe, and well separated. All the staff were very attentive and we had a great guide. The Camp Manager does a great job. Food again was superb. A most comfortable camp in... More
