Puku Ridge
Puku Ridge blends refined style and comfort effortlessly with the surrounding wilderness. From its elegant architectural lines to thoughtfully customised game viewing vehicles and a perfectly positioned photographic eye-to-eye hide overlooking a private waterhole, every detail has been designed to immerse guests in the magic of the bush.
Each of the eight luxury tented retreats is perched on an elevated ridge, offering sweeping views across open plains and woodlands teeming with wildlife. Drawing inspiration from the traditional Luangwa bush camps, elements of local village life and authentic Zambian artistry are woven throughout, seamlessly paired with all the essential creature comforts that make Puku Ridge an unmissable part of any Zambian safari.


Exquisite views and captivating spaces are the heart of the experience — from the star bed atop a private upper tower to expansive multi-level wooden decks, private plunge pools, open-air showers, and serene indoor lounges. Air conditioning, ceiling fans, and mosquito nets ensure a peaceful night’s sleep in a super king or generously sized twin bed.
Spend a night beneath the vast African skies in the star bed, wake to the sounds of nature as you shower outdoors or unwind in a luxurious bathtub with panoramic views. Dine as wildlife gathers at the waterhole, and while away the heat of the day in your plunge pool or the shaded sanctuary of the eye-to-eye photographic hide.
Chichele Presidential is owned by Chichele Safaris and operated in collaboration with the Cumings Family of Chiawa Camp & Old Mondoro who lend their expertise in guiding and guest experience to the lodge.
