Kapani Our ViewKapani is certainly one of the best lodges in the Mfuwe area of the South Luangwa. Built as a permanent lodge rather than a bush camp, Kapani is a great introduction to the Luangwa and is a superb option when booked in conjunction with Norman Carrs bushcamps. There are a couple of seriously good guides here making Kapani a superb start to a safari, and a very affordable one at that.

More about Kapani LodgeMeaning place of Mopani trees, Kapani was built in 1986 by Norman Carr himself as his own home, Kapani remained a private house until he died in 1997. Today Kapani has been transformed into a 10 roomed lodge on the banks of a hippo and croc filled lagoon beside the Luangwa river in South Luangwa A thatched building in the centre of the camp is home to the lounge and library - a place where guests can gather for pre-dinner drinks around an open fire. The bar and dining area are set out on a raised wooden decking area overlooking the lagoon under the shade of a canopy of trees (cheeky baboons and vervets included). The 8 standard rooms spare no expense for space, high ceilings accentuate the size of each room, complete with en suite bathrooms, lounge area and bar/fridge. The two lagoon houses, Kapani's best rooms are very similar in style but are detached, even more spacious and perfect for honeymooners. Game often come down to the lagoon in dry months and elephants are often found in the camp.
