At Time + Tide, we believe that wellness is not about strict regimes; it’s about embracing meaningful moments, basking in the beauty around us, and savouring the art of stillness surrounded by exceptional wildlife. Safaris offer a place to reconnect and are the perfect remedy to the everyday stresses of life, inviting you to slow down and let your senses fully absorb the magic of the wild.
Feel the crisp morning air on your skin as you sip freshly brewed coffee before setting off on a safari.
Let the symphony of cicadas, frogs, and distant lion calls lull you to sleep during a Sleepout experience under the stars. Paddle quietly through the tributaries of the Lower Zambezi, watching sunlight dance on the water and the graceful glide of a hippo disappearing beneath the surface. It’s moments in nature like these where we feel truly alive that we delight in sharing with our guests.
One of the most surprising joys of safari life is the deep connections that blossom in the wild. Around a shared sundowner setup, stories unfold, and fellow travellers become fast friends. The laughter shared with your guide after an exhilarating wildlife sighting becomes a cherished memory. And then, there’s the connection with the wilderness itself. Witnessing a herd of elephants crossing the river or standing in awe of a centuries-old baobab tree can reignite a profound appreciation for the natural world and your place within it.
But safaris are equally a chance to reconnect with yourself. Solo travel allows for moments of introspection, offering the space to reflect, imagine, and simply be. Watch the sun dip below the horizon or enjoy the silence as the first stars appear with as much or as little company as you prefer. Let the rhythms of nature remind you that life isn’t about rushing to the next thing but about savouring what’s here, now.
On safari, we live by the rhythms of nature, guided by the sun’s arc through the sky.
Early mornings become sacred, and the ritual of watching the sunrise is one you’ll never want to miss. Sunsets are equally revered, marked by a toast to the day’s adventures as the sun slips below the horizon. This natural cadence helps reset your circadian rhythm, gently bringing your body back to its natural sleep cycles.
For those seeking deeper relaxation, some of our camps offer spa treatments designed to melt away the stresses of modern life. Yoga is also available at Chinzombo, and we encourage guests to practice beneath the gently swaying trees or on your deck overlooking the Luangwa River. Whether it’s a sunrise salutation or a post-safari stretch, yoga in the wild invites you to align your body, mind, and spirit.
Dining at our camps is another celebration of wellness. Our chefs craft meals using fresh, locally sourced ingredients that not only nourish the body but also delight the palate. Each dish is a reminder to slow down and savour — because life, like a meal shared under the stars, is best enjoyed unhurried.
Wellness is a deeply personal journey, and at Time + Tide, we celebrate that individuality. Whether you’re seeking adventure, meaningful connections, or a chance to awaken your senses, each of our camps offers a sanctuary for reconnection. Our safaris are more than just trips into the wild — they’re invitations to embark on a journey of self-discovery and renewal. Many guests leave not only with cherished memories but also with open hearts, curious spirits, and a newfound embrace of nature.
