“Looking back, the inspiration behind African Bush Camps was to restore balance - to the land, its people, and the wildlife. I saw disparities that needed to be addressed, and I wanted to create something that not only celebrated Africa’s beauty but also gave back to it.”
Leopards are my favorite animal, and I’ve had some amazing encounters with them in Lower Zambezi.
There’s Dictator, the dominant male, and Mambo, the female whose territory stretches over part of the Lolebezi premises. We cross paths with them on our morning and night drives, and each sighting always leaves me feeling amazed .
They’re such shy creatures, and so I feel very privileged to see their beauty in the wild.

My name is Esther Phiri, and I’m from Livingstone, Zambia.
For me, guiding is about more than just being in nature - it’s about understanding the ecosystem and the connections within it.
My first experience in the bush was nothing like I had imagined - it was even better! Seeing buffalos, impalas, and kudus for the first time was incredible. The stillness wasn’t empty - it was full of life, just different from the noise of the city. No cars, no crowds, just nature. A sense of peace came over me along with a deep curiosity. I needed to know more, and it was overwhelming in the best way.
I can still remember the first birdcall I heard in the bush: an emerald-spotted wood dove. I had spent years watching National Geographic, but in that moment, it was no longer just something on a screen. It was real.

Hyenas live in a matriarchal clan where females reign supreme.
The alpha female (larger and more dominant than the males) leads with absolute authority - overseeing resources, mating rights, and the survival of the clan. Her daughters inherit her high rank from birth, outstripping even adult females of lower status. With this power, they secure the best food and protection.
It’s a fascinating hierarchy in which leadership is inherited, not earned, and passed down from mother to daughter.

The Okavango Delta offers a peacefulness that is hard to find anywhere else.
As you drift in a mokoro through winding lagoons, gliding past lounging hippos and gazing at soaring fish eagles, you’ll find a solitude that soothes the soul.
A safari here is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the world around you.

Introducing Mai, Lady, and Scar.
Mai (center), an established female to the east of Lolebezi, is the mother of Lady (left) and Scar (right). In typical leopard behavior, mothers and daughters don’t remain close - usually exchanging snarls rather than companionship. Yet, Mai seems remarkably tolerant, allowing her grown cubs to interact with her long after most leopard bonds would have loosened.
These are the Leopards of Lolebezi.

“Wow! Just got home from our stay with African Bush Camps and Linyanti was by far our favorite stop!
The area is absolutely gorgeous, with plentiful animals and wildlife. We saw lions, herds of elephant, hundreds of zebras, and much more. Plus, we enjoyed the fact that we were the only guests in the private concession, so there really was a feeling of remoteness!
Special shout-out to Max who was simply the BEST guide and knows the landscape so well. He was also so accommodating to the interests of my husband who is a birder.”
