Olga's the Italian Corner is the final stage of an educational project for the most vulnerable youth of Livingstone. It opened in 2008 as a production unit in support of YCTC (Youth Community Training Centre), a certified school built by the Diocese of Livingstone and CELIM (an Italian NGO). All Olga's profits go to YCTC which provides training in catering, tailoring, plumbing, electrical, metal construction, computer studies and bricklaying to orphans and vulnerable youth. Most of Olga's employees come from the YCTC's catering course, which results in the project being self-sustainable. Olga's is located in the center of Livingstone and only 9 kilometres far from the famous Victoria Falls, easily reachable with minibus or cab. It is 15 minutes far from the airport and walking distance from the main attractions of Livingstone: bars, travel agencies, shops, museum, grocerystore, etc.

Kasabushi Camp and Campsite are the true 'Heart of the Kafue', located within the Wild Zone of the Central Kafue National Park, a protected area with limited development allowed. Kasabushi Camp was built from scratch by its owners, Andy and Libby Wilson, with love and a skilful attention to detail. It's a perfect 'home in the bush' for guests wanting to experience their creature comforts but feel totally at one with their surroundings. Kasabushi Camp is situated on a stunningly beautiful stretch of the Kafue River with amazing views of palm-covered islands. The Bush Camp has been built using a combination of old English timber-work and contemporary design ideas. There are currently two tented chalets (hand-built tents with a gum pole structure on decks) overlooking the Kafue River, both far enough apart for complete privacy. The natural plunge pool nestled between granite rocks in front of the Round House is the perfect place to cool off in heat of the day. The Round House has an incredibly beautiful view, a wonderful place to dine and relax. The camp is small, intimate and exclusive so guests enjoy the surroundings, birds and wildlife in peace and the service revolves around them only. The campsite has an awesome ablution area with spacious and well-appointed water-fall showers, basins with mirrors, flushing toilets and a washing-up area. All facilities have hot and cold water. A braai stand and all firewood is included in the nightly charge. Dedicated pitches are all by the river with space for peace and privacy, and all have trees for shade. The Campsite is the perfect location for self-drivers due to its location within the Kafue National Park. Guests can drive straight from camp (with a map provided) to the various game loops.

Dotted along the forested riverbanks, Time + Tide Chongwe Camp is surrounded by wild beauty. Set at the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi Rivers against a stunning mountainous backdrop, the area is a haven for wildlife. Sit in front of your tent, beneath ancient winterthorn trees and watch as elephants feed on seed pods as the belly laugh of hippos echoes across the river. Overhead, monkeys and birds bring the canopy to life, and impalas tiptoe past, nibbling on the grassy banks. Throughout Time + Tide Chongwe Camp, the spirit of the Lower Zambezi imbues every detail. Wood artfully gnarled by nature adorns the camp, collected from fallen trees and repurposed into handcrafted furniture. Explore this breath-taking landscape with an impressive selection of activities. Track wildlife on foot with a walking safari, relax beside lions on a game drive, sleepout under the stars high in the escarpment or take to the maze of rivers and channels for canoeing, boating and fishing adventures.
