Access into the park is by pontoon, boat or over the bridge. The Luangwa Valley was formed by the massive forces that created the East African Rift Valley. The game is always in the vicinity of the camp. With three distinct habitats, the river, the adjoining lagoons and the plains there is a wide diversity of game. Amongst the species, waterbuck, zebra, warthog and greater kudu are common place. The wandering herds of elephant are amongst some of the largest left in Africa. Buffalo continuously move in search of fresh pastures and water. In their wake come the predators, the lion and hyena. Leopard hunt the smaller game under cover of darkness.

The six guest rooms are made of woven bamboo and thatch. They are airy and cool with open-air ensuite bathrooms. The bar is built around an enormous ebony tree and the separate dining area overlooks a small lagoon which often attracts elephants and bushbuck down to drink. Nkwali also offers a swimming pool to cool off in on those warm lazy afternoons!

Elephants often cross the Luangwa, seen from the bar, or come to the waterhole near the thatched dining room. The area is famous for leopard and giraffe sightings. Game Drives - in open 4x4 vehicles with experienced guides. Night Drives - In the late afternoon and into the night, using spotlights to view the nocturnal world of the bush.
