We can also take you on amazing game drives through the park. Your overnight stay will be in chalets at Lower Zambezi Lodge (or similar) on the banks of the Zambezi River.

Off the beaten track, the little-visited Kafue National Park is enormous, with thriving herds on the plains including the majestic sable, stalked by lion, leopard and wild dog. No Wildlife Zambia safari would be complete without a visit to Kafue National Park, one of Africa’s largest parks and especially good for spotting a variety of wildlife!

Visiting the South Luangwa National Park, a world-renowned wildlife haven will be the highlight of your safari trip to Zambia.
