Sausage Tree Camp

Luxury Tented Suites

The Luxury Tented Suites at Sausage Tree Camp are set along the Zambezi River, offering spacious and well-appointed accommodation with uninterrupted views.

Each suite is designed with a clean, understated style, combining a more contemporary feel with subtle safari elements. The rooms are generously sized and include either a king or twin configuration, along with a lounge area and minibar.

Large openings and the overall layout ensure a strong connection to the river, with wildlife often moving through the area in front of camp.

The en-suite bathrooms are equally spacious, featuring a freestanding bath, indoor and outdoor showers, and quality fittings throughout. Outside, each suite has a private deck with a plunge pool overlooking the river.

A dedicated butler service is included, allowing for a more personalised and flexible stay.

The suites are well suited to guests looking for a high level of comfort and privacy, combined with strong views and a classic Lower Zambezi setting.

Kigelia House

Kigelia House is Sausage Tree Camp’s private house option, well suited to families or small groups looking for a more exclusive setup within camp.

The house consists of two en-suite bedrooms – one double and one twin – connected by a central open-plan living and dining area. This shared space opens directly onto a large private deck, creating an easy flow between indoor and outdoor living.

The deck includes a private plunge pool and overlooks the Zambezi, providing a comfortable space to relax between activities and take in the setting.

As with the rest of Sausage Tree, Kigelia House is well finished, with a focus on comfort and space, and includes dedicated staff to ensure a flexible and personalised stay.

It works particularly well for guests wanting privacy and the option to spend time together in their own space, while still enjoying access to the main camp and its activities.

This camp has earned itself a strong reputation over recent years and for good reason, it was completely re-modelled in 2018 and the rooms are large with a modern, almost minimalist feel to them, each one is open and airy with great views of the river and private plunge-pools on the deck in front.

The camp comprises 7 luxury rooms and the Kigelia House which is of the same style but is a 2-roomed unit with a shared sitting / dining area between the two bedrooms. 

Activities include the usual game-drives and walks as well as all the river activities, the camp is very close to the Chifungulu channel which provides some excellent canoeing, although in my own experience this route can be a little “exciting” at times. 

The company acquired its own light-aircraft in 2021 and now flights to and from Jeki airstrip are included in the costing for both this camp and its sister property, Potato Bush.  These flights carry guests from and to, any of the regular safari destinations in Zambia and this special offer has proved very popular, it does though, quite understandably, mean that longer stays in these two camps represent better ‘value’ than shorter ones.
