Useful Information

Zambia is the luscious origin of walking safaris, where guests take to the wild on foot, led by a guide, to experience the beauty of the bush. The South Luangwa National Park has many walking safari trails.

The Luangwa River winds its way through 3 National Parks in the Luangwa River Valley. It sustains a huge population of wildlife, particularly the water-dependent herds of buffalo and elephant.

The Kafue National Park is the largest in Zambia and is where guests will visit the flooded grasslands, which is noted for both its incredible birdlife and its population of herbivores and predators.

South Luangwa National Park is wild and remote; situated at the southern end of the Great Rift Valley offering an abundance of wildlife that is rarely seen in other game reserves and is one of the finest wildlife sanctuaries in the world.

Kafue National Park is Zambia’s oldest and largest National Park and the second largest National Park in the world at 22 400 square kilometres offering fantastic wildlife and birdlife.

Lower Zambezi National Park is situated opposite the legendary and wildlife rich Mana Pools Reserve in Zimbabwe, hence the entire area offers a massive wildlife sanctuary.

Some of our top camps include:  Busanga Bush Camp , a small tented safari camp offering guests a traditional safari experience;  Lufupa Tented Camp , offering a beautiful river setting overlooking the Kafue River;  Chindeni Tented Camp , with only 4 traditional safari tents with the emphasis on service and exclusivity.
