Highlights:
Legendary Master Guide– Deb Tittle
Unhabituated Wildlife – Game in remote areas is less used to human presence so you see true “wild” behavior.
Avoid the Crowds – Nsefu Sector has only 2 lodges, compared to Mfuwe with 25 lodges!
Jeep, Walking & Canoe Safaris – for the broadest diversity of game and a more intimate safari experience.
No Jeep Competition – You won’t be part of 5-30 jeeps chasing a lion, as is now common in much of Africa
World-Class Safari Lodges and Mobile Bushcamps – See "Accommodations" link
Includes All Meals
Fully Customizable – Choose the length and price that’s right for you, or take the full 18-day “Ultimate” safari!
Destinations
South Luangwa National Park– Home of the Walking Safari, with game- rich woodlands, bush and rivers. South Luangwa is Zambia's premier park and possibly the
finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. Home to a truly impressive number of
animals, the woodlands and plains host huge concentrations of game – including
elephant, buffalo, lion, giraffe, hippo, and over 450 species of birds. It is the only place in Africa you can see
the endemic Thornicoft giraffe and Cookson's wildebeest. The abundance of leopards in Luangwa is
famous and it is usual for us to see several, a special thrill when walking.
Nsefu sector: Remote and with only 2 lodges (compared to 40+ lodges in Mfuwe sector), so game is prolific and not used to human presence. On a typical stay you’re likely to have lions and leopards right around the camps! Camps: Nsefu, Tena Tena, & Luangwa Bushcamp (mobile)
Kafue National Park – Zambia’s huge, under-visited “secret” park features vast plains and wetlands known for its healthy populations of lion and cheetah.
Kafue is more than twice the size of South Luangwa and
so remote our transfer combines bush plane and helicopter. The classic African
plains and wetlands of Kafue compliment South Luangwa’s woodlands and
rivers; the different eco-systems form a perfect combination of habitats for maximum game viewing. The Busanga Plains provide
fantastic concentrations of over 150 mammals, including puku, lechwe, buffalo
and wildebeest, as well as rare animals not easily viewed in many places in
southern Africa such as roan, oribi and Lichtenstein's hartebeest. This wealth
of game is also a big attraction for predators, including wild dog,
side-striped jackal and prides of lion often up to 20 strong. Kafue is one of
the best places in Zambia to see cheetah. Camps: Kapinga or Busanga.
Victoria Falls – Optional extension
