Tiger Safaris is one of the longest established camps on the Middle-Lower section of the Zambezi River. It is located on the banks of the river 2km downstream of the Chirundu border post.
The camp has recently undergone a total refurbishment and is now a family-friendly establishment rather than just a fishing camp.
Accommodation consists of:-
• 5 river front chalets each with 3 bedrooms en suite. Each has its own fully equipped kitchen.
• A family chalet with 3 air conditioned bedrooms , one bathroom , kitchen and lounge.
• A fully catered chalet with 2 ensuite air conditioned bedrooms.
• A camp site with ablutions
A restaurant , bar and lounge ( with TV and wi fi ) overlooks the river on one side and the swimming pool and water hole on the other.
Clients have the option of self catering, fully catered or a combination of both.
The restaurant offers packed meals to be taken on boat outings.
With the area a no-hunting zone now, many species of wildlife have returned to the area and the water hole is frequented by elephant, buffalo, bush buck, warthog and a variety of smaller animals, while hippo mow the lawns at night ... and frequently venture through the restaurant. Bird life is prolific both on and off the river.
There is lots to keep children entertained with a newly established playground by the pool, a secure pond in which they can feed and catch bream and barbel. Wide open lawns are perfect for enjoying all forms of ball games from soccer to touch rugby. We offer accommodation for child minders should parents opt to bring theirs to give them a chance to relax or go fishing knowing their children are in good hands.
Tiger Safaris now has 10 refurbished boats for hire skippered by, arguably, the most experienced fishing guides along this stretch of the river. Birding and game viewing by boat are also a favourite with clients. Also very popular with guests are picnics in the shallows of sandbanks and day trips up to the Kariba dam wall which includes boating through 18km of the spectacular Kariba gorge
We host all forms of functions from fishing competitions, conferences and family get-togethers and are fully equipped to cater for weddings of up to 120 people.
