Back to ZambiaWith only 8 beds Old Mondoro is one of the Lower Zambezi’s most intimate and private safari camps. Set in a grove of Acacia trees that tower above the massive elephant bulls that feed on them, on the banks of the Zambezi River, also in the Lower Zambezi National Park and some 35km downstream from Chiawa Camp - this is a beautiful and remote site overlooking a maze of hippo-inhabited islands and channels.
The concept of Old Mondoro is simple – to provide guests with an authentic remote safari that concentrates on the wildlife and bush experience whilst not forgoing any necessary creature comforts.
With only 8 beds Old Mondoro is the Lower Zambezi’s most intimate and private safari camp.
The terrain around Old Mondoro is very different from the rest of the Park, which is on higher ground characterised by thicker bush and large inland lagoons. Here, the Park is characterised by vast flood plains and open woodland making for ideal walking and game viewing opportunities. There are some excellent walking areas right out of Camp, and more just a short drive away.
Old Mondoro is also noted for its wild dog sightings as the dogs often den in the vicinity, and was the base for the African Wild Dog Conservation researcher for two years. Conservation Lower Zambezi now monitors the wild dog population on behalf of AWDC.
