Rouwin
Hi, my name is Rouwin. I started guiding in 2015, and now I’ve been in the field for over 10 years. I really enjoy being out in nature and sharing what I know with our guests.
My passion for guiding started from a young age, and with help from my brother—who I see as a hero of the bush—I was able to learn more and grow into this career. He inspired me to take this path, and I’m grateful for that.
If you want to see the real safari experience, I invite you to come visit South Luangwa National Park. Out here, nature is always alive—and we help you understand what’s happening around you.

CHARLIE
Charlie, Lion Camp’s largest and most iconic elephant, is a gentle giant. A lone bull, he frequents the lodge, feeding on winter thorn pods, drinking, and providing guests intimate encounters where he feels at home, as well as in the workshop with his bachelor herd—the workshop crew.
SCOOTER
Scooter, a cheeky young bull, earned his name by scooting under elevated decks as a calf. Full of character, he roams the lodge like it’s his own, though he wisely avoids the true legend—Charlie. Often arriving early, he dodges Charlie while trying to steal the lion’s share of Winterthorn seed pods.
