About Kalamu Star Bed Camp

  • Close Panel 

Kalamu Star Bed Camp is set in the Luamfwa Concession in the southerm sector of South Luangwa National Park. The emphasis here is firmly on the environment with guest enjoying walking trails by day and sleeping under the stars at night.

The accommodation consists of beds set on three individual raised platforms, some three metres above the ground. Each bed is protected by a mosquito net but is open to the fresh air and the sounds of the bush, for an authentic safari experience. There is a private bathroom on each platform with hot and cold running water.

Meals are taken in the dining area located on the banks of the Luangwa River. In the evening there is an open fire here, where guests congregate and chat over the day's events. There is a separate lounge tent where guests can relax, out of the heat of the sun. The main activity is walking safaris led by experienced guides along the many trails in the area, but there is also the chance to take game drives.

Kalamu Star Bed Camp can also be booked as part of the Kalamu Walking Trails from Kalamu Lagoon Camp.

Pricing guidelines for Zambia

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £600 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless airlines have special offers). Zambia combines well with Malawi and Botswana.

For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country:

  £50 to £150
