“Located at the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi Rivers, Time + Tide Chongwe Camp offers some of the best views of the Lower Zambezi, looking out across the waterways and against a mountainous backdrop. A real highlight here is the wildlife encounters within camp itself, notably elephants who frequently wander through camp in search of fresh seed pods.”
