Tena Tena - meaning 'temporary home' - is the flagship camp for the highly acclaimed Robin Pope Safaris. The camp is located on the banks of a wide sweep of the meandering Luangwa River, in the quiet Nsefu sector of the Park, near the spectacular Buca Buca lagoon.
The six tents, accommodating up to 12 guests, look out onto a magnificent stretch of the Luangwa River. The en-suite bathrooms are spacious and open to the elements, designed to copy nature with curved walls around the trees and simple subtle colours. Each tent is located to maximize privacy and features comfortable sitting areas with excellent views onto the river.
The main area is moulded around a large termite mound and mahogany tree with different levels shaded by an enormous tent. With plenty of different seating areas there is space to relax and unwind whilst reflecting on the day's safari, before sitting down to dinner on the banks of the Luangwa, under the stars and enjoying the sounds of the African night.
Guests are offered the opportunity to enjoy game viewing from open safari vehicles (both day and night drives are conducted), game walks and a Kawaza Village visit.
The camp is open from May through to October.
Airstrip Transfer Time: 1 hour 15 minutes from Mfuwe Airport

The six tents are very private with plenty of space between them and each with its own window onto a magnificent stretch of the Luangwa River where the hippos wallow and the lions roam. The en-suite bathrooms are spacious and open to the elements, designed to copy nature with curved walls around the trees and simple subtle colours and a view from every facility. Each tent is specifically located to maximize privacy both in the rooms, bathrooms and on the verandahs with comfortable sitting areas and excellent views onto the river.
