Zambia is situated in South Central Africa and this landlocked country is neighboured by eight other countries. Chinzombo is located in the Luangwa Valley, a mere 1 hour from Mfuwe Airport. Chinzombo is set on private land of 60 acres, adorned by Luangwa river frontage.
The Luangwa River can be seen from the villas and can be crossed to reach the South Luangwa National Park. The park is a game-rich area that affords sightings of a diverse list of wildlife species including elephants, hippos, predators and impala.
