Camp Chitubu

Camp Chitubu feels like an old-school bush camp — sandy floors, a relaxed Bedouin-style lounge, and a firepit that quickly becomes the social heart of the evening. The communal canvas area houses the dining space, bar and comfy seating, all open to the views so you never lose sight of the reason you came. With just a handful of tents plus a family unit, the atmosphere stays quiet and personal — perfect for those who prefer wilderness over Wi-Fi (though don’t worry, solar power keeps the lights and chargers happily running). It’s simple, considered, and built to celebrate the landscape rather than compete with it.

This is a camp for proper, boots-on-the-ground safari lovers. Walking safaris are a highlight here, led by experienced guides who specialise in reading tracks, scents and subtle bush cues most of us never notice. Of course, classic game drives are still on offer (morning and afternoon), and the wildlife in this corner of Hwange is famously abundant — elephants by the dozen, buffalo, zebra, predators, and serious birding to boot.
