"Perched on a scenic bluff and reached by boat down the Zambezi, Kiambi Safaris felt unfussy, rustic and family-friendly compared with nearby luxury lodges: accommodations range from air-conditioned chalets to budget camping plans, dinners are hearty and comforting, and the staff emphasize local development (training, woodworking, hospitality degrees); general manager Janine Bianca Woods lent the place personality — from serving craft marula gin to sharing stories about raising a baby hippo — and the lodge fosters direct community ties, exemplified by meetings with Her Royal Highness Chieftainess Chiawa." - Tayari Jones Tayari Jones Tayari Jones is a New York Times best-selling author and journalist, as well as a full-time Charles Howard Candler professor at Emory University.
