Zambian luxury safari tent resort adds riverside spa

Luxury safari operator Wilderness Safaris has rejuvenated the health and wellness offerings at its Toka Leya Camp, rebuilding the spa and gym within Zambia’s Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park.

The upgraded wellness area now includes a separate spa treatment room with outdoor decking overlooking the Zambezi River, where guests can also enjoy Pilates or yoga. The treatment room’s location means guests can enjoy their spa experience while listening to the sounds of the river.

Holistic, eco-friendly product house Africology is used for massages, scrubs and facials.

“The Zambezi region offers guests some of the most spectacular natural wonders and adventure activities,” said Ron Goatley, managing director of Wilderness Safaris, Zambezi Region. “By enhancing our spa and gym at Toka Leya, the camp is now equally as appealing as a standalone destination, where guests can choose from a wide range of activities, or simply relax and enjoy the spectacular setting for a few days before or after a safari.”

The camp has also added an air-conditioned fitness room with weights, exercise bike and treadmill for those wanting to keep active while on safari.

Toka Leya features 12 safari-style tents with romantic outdoor baths and raised decks with expansive drop-down sitting areas. The camp also contains an infinity pool.
