Just a one hour flight from Lusaka, the South Luangwa is known for its big cat sightings and often referred to as the Valley of the Leopard. It is in the South Luangwa that the legendary Norman Carr pioneered the walking safari and conservation-based tourism in Africa. Zambia's outstanding reputation of guiding is ever prevalent in our team with some of our guides having trained with Norman himself. Our guides offer guests a raw, authentic safari experience and don't let the finer details in these vast spaces pass you by.

It has been described by guests as their "happy place" because of its beautiful scenery, peaceful riverside woodlands and abundant wildlife. The Lower Zambezi is just a short 30 minute flight from Lusaka and offers guests the thrill of tiger-fishing to peaceful wildlife sightings on the banks of the river while canoeing or boating.

We are guides and guardians to some of the most beautiful places on Earth, with a collection of luxury properties in Zambia and Madagascar. Our safari camps are linked by the lifeblood of the land; the rivers. Our story begins in Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park, where beautiful tributaries feed into the Luangwa River as it bends toward the mighty Zambezi. The river flows through the Lower Zambezi National Park, joined by the gentle waters of the Chongwe River. Once the Zambezi has run its course, it spills into the Indian Ocean where it’s carried by the currents across the seas. It finds itself on the shores of Nosy Komba off the northwest coast of Madagascar and ends somewhere between a fairytale and a dream on our private island sanctuary, Miavana by Time + Tide.

Miavana by Time + Tide

An exhilarating helicopter ride over mountains, baobabs and shipwrecks dotting the wild coastline ends in a gentle landing on a remote private island off the coast of Madagascar. Rediscover your sense of wonder in a place where luxury means stepping foot where no man has before, surrounded by an unspoiled horizon. Raw and refined, Miavana brings together exclusivity and adventure as well as true sense of travelling with purpose. At around 10 square kilometres in size, Miavana is an intimate haven of time and space, a chance to escape and unwind.
