From the main entrance of South Luangwa National Park, head south on the main road towards Mfuwe. Continue driving for approximately 20 km. Look for the signs directing you towards Chindeni Bush Camp. The camp is located in Block 01 of the park, so keep an eye out for entry points. After entering the designated area, follow the internal park roads, which may be unpaved, for about 10 km until you reach Chindeni Bush Camp. Be cautious of wildlife on the roads.
-
Public Transportation
Take a minibus or shared taxi from Mfuwe to the park entrance. The fare is usually around $10-$15 USD per person. Once you arrive at the entrance, you will need to arrange a vehicle to take you to Chindeni Bush Camp, as public transportation does not reach the camp directly.

Walking (if already inside the park)
If you are already inside South Luangwa National Park and near the vicinity of Chindeni Bush Camp, you may consider walking.
