Sausage Tree Camp - Zambia

We loved this camp so much after visiting in May we returned in November for an even longer stay. Every detail of this camp has been carefully designed to ensure the spaces are not only incredibly beautiful but comfortable and inviting. The exceptional care, attention and experiences bestowed upon guests, sets Green Safaris camps in a class of thier own. After our stay at Sausage Tree in Lower Zambezi we stayed at Tongabezi at the Victoria Falls and experienced Devils Pool (cataract) with Green Safaris where our experience at Sausage Tree was replicated. Green Safaris, in our opinion, embodies the ‘X Factor’ and we can't wait to return...

We went here on our honeymoon, and this was the trip of a life time! The location is beautiful. The accommodations are so gorgeous, and the animals are amazing. However, the people really make this place. Ashifu - our butler - was so kind. He took care of us - bringing us coffee and tea in the morning - washing our clothes, and organizing events for us. He taught us so much about the animals, and he made every day so special for us in our honeymoon. He even decorated our room one night so we could have a private dinner in our tent. Esther and Mwansa were so kind, and it was so fun to talk with them about managing the camp. Nevers and Wilson were our amazing guides each day on the safari! They were so knowledgeable, and we learned so much from them. They kept us safe while also showing us some of the most gorgeous animals in the world. My husband lost his wallet and didn’t realize until we were in the air to Lusaka. Nevers and Wilson found the wallet, got it on another charter plane, and to us before our next flight out. The service was outstanding. Every single person at the camp was so kind. We hope to come visit again soon!

This is a wonderful camp! We spent 4 days there. We have been to 14 camps in Africa and India, and none were better and few as good. The environment is beautiful and full of a huge variety of animals and birds. The environment is great, with the huge Zambezia River, with its many islands, and loaded with animals, right in front of the lodge. And the many lagoons, surrounded by lovely green plains, were full of surprises. Our guide, Nobby, was extraordinary in both spotting even the most obscure animals and birds and providing fascinating details about them. Meals and wines were excellent. Our room was terrific, with all of the accoutrements one could imagine. The staff were wonderful, very friendly and caring - never missing a detail. In the four days, there were 3 special evening events, including a cocktail party with a full bar just for my wife and me. There are a few sought-after animals that are not in the preserve, including giraffes, rhinos and cheetahs, so if you want these, pair another camp that has them with Sausage Tree, but do not miss this awesome camp.

The second lodge on our Zambia safari, Sausage Tree Camp is beautifully set on the Lower Zambezi with plentiful hippos, crocodiles and elephants seen as we arrived. The suites are the epitome of luxury, vast and well appointed with stunning outdoor areas and river views. We were so well looked after by the team including Collins our ranger, Arnold, Thembe and Mike behind the bar. I had a wonderful massage from Esther on the room deck and was so fortunate to have 3 Elelphants wander past our pool while being massaged. Once again there were special treats and surprises including a lunch in the river, candlelight hath and champagne waiting as we returned from our fishing trip. The Lower Zambezi national park had stunning landscapes and plentiful game viewing including Lions, Wild Dogs and Elephants with the Elephants often passing through the camp and past our room to wade across the river to graze.||Collins had a wealth of experience and knowledge to share making each drive fascinating and also many stories of his time in the Bush. Arnold made sure we had everything we needed and seemed to know what we wanted before we did. The food was fantastic and plentiful with the Chef and Team making each meal a joy. Sitting at Breakfast gazing over the Lower Zambezi and the escarpment was pure pleasure.||We hope one day to be able to return but will not forget such special memories and a big thank you to all the team for giving us such a wonderful experience, which surpassed all expectations.

Simply the experience of a lifetime. The camp is situated on a perfect stretch of the Zambezi and you have 24/7 views of elephants, hippos, and buffalo moving through the water throughout the day. The hippos and surrounding wildlife will serenade you to sleep each night.||We has elephants walking through camp nearly every day, and lions walking through one night. This is the rare camp where you can experience many types of safari... jeep, boat, night, canoe, walking, and even just from your chalet.||The staff was beyond amazing and tended to your every need with genuine smiles and they really felt like family within just a day of our stay. No matter how many days you stay here, it will not be enough!

What a joy it was to stay at Sausage Tree !! The very well trained staff organises everything to match perfection. The suites, the game drives. the morning breakfasts in front of the hippo’s, the lunch in the middle of the Zambezi or the starlight diner… every event was a delight. We have never been so spoiled rotten. Highly recommended!

What to say that is negative about this camp???? Sorry, can't find one thing! Everything was well organised, well taken care of. Luxurious clean tents, or should I say Villa's? And all the staff is just splendid, helpful, friendly,...|Food is excellent (proof: my expanded waist after our stay there...)|But most of all: the wildlife was ashtounding, amazinf, fantastic!

We stayed at Sausage Tree for three nights from 18th April, it was really fantastic !! The hospitality of the staff was of a very high standard and the games drives have been really great. The lodge is located on the river Zambezi, each lodge has a private swimming pool, very luxurious to relax in the afternoon. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are of a high quality and there is plenty of choice. We were also treated to a number of culinary surprises, very nice. The hospitality of the staff is of a very high level, very friendly and focused on ensuring that every guest has a good stay. Every morning we were woken up early to go on a game drive with our ranger Henri. Henri is very accessible and has a lot of knowledge of the area and nature. We made beautiful game drives and saw a lot of wild animals, such as wild dogs, elephants, lions and much more, too many to mention. Sausage Tree has exceeded our expectations and is highly recommended!!
