About Anabezi Safari Camp
Anabezi is a 24 bed camp located on the banks of the Zambezi River at the Lower end of the Lower Zambezi National Park in Zambia.
The name Anabezi is derived from the camp being situated on the Zambezi River and the many Ana Trees or Winter Thorns (Faidherbia albida) that surround the camp.
These winter thorns drop yellow pods which attract a wide variety of animals to the area including many elephants, a welcome sight in the camp.
The Camp is made of 11 luxury tents and 1 luxury family suite on raised timber platforms at the edge of a ridge providing magnificent views of both the Zambezi River and Mushika River flood plain.
The flood plain hosts year-round grazing and offers a spectacularly diverse game viewing from the comfort of your tent!
Luxury Tent Suites with private plunge pools
Accommodation consists of large luxurious tents, approximately 1000 sq ft in size, positioned on a raised wooden deck.
The tents are generously spaced along the Zambezi River bank and the Mushika flood plain, allowing the game to wonder around the camp freely.
