OLD MONDORO CAMP

Old Mondoro is a rustic but beautiful, small bush camp in a wonderful location that complements any visit to Chiawa Camp. The camp takes a step back from the sophistication of many safari camps and focuses instead on providing guests with a more down to earth though no less rewarding safari experience.

CAMP DESCRIPTION

The Camp is open from May 01—October 31. A canvas and reed lounge/bar area overlooks a maze of islands in the Zambezi River, as does an imaginative outdoor loo. Turn around in your seat and you look across mature open woodland and some of Africa’s finest walking country!

Accommodation is in reed chalets with canvas roofs, left open during the day and canvas blinds with screens are lowered for privacy and security at night. All chalets have paraffin lanterns, flush loos, washbasin, and shower each built around an ancient winter thorn tree, and each with 24-hour cold water. Hot water is delivered by wheelbarrow on request and into old-fashioned canvas buckets. Comfy beds and mosquito nets complete the accommodation—all with wonderful views. The kitchen has a 220v generator for charging batteries.

ACTIVITIES AND WILDLIFE

Situated far inside the Park in lovely walking country (miles of open woodland) with great game viewing, Old Mondoro is a great spot for elephants, leopards, and seasonal wild dog sightings.

Activities generally consist of morning walks and afternoon game drives. A motorboat for afternoon game viewing on the Zambezi River is also available. Guests are transported in two LandRovers and one motorboat.
