TAILORED TRAVEL ITINERIES Ultimate Kafue

Start your ultimate visit to the Kafue National Park from Lusaka or Livingstone. This ultimate trip through the Kafue National Park will take you to the famous Busanga Plains in the north, through Miombo woodlands and dambos, following the varied Kafue river system to Lake Itezhi Tezhi and to the Nanzhila Plains in the South. You will experience real remoteness, breath-taking river landscapes and encounter wildlife undisturbed. As the land varies, so do its inhabitants. You will encounter large herds of lechwe, wildebeest, roan and numerous sightings of the rare wattled cranes in the Busanga Plains. The Miombo woodlands and dambos provide home to a greater variety of herbivore, predator and bird species. Sable and reedbuck speciality around Nanzhila. Large herds of buffalo and elephant are home throughout park and predators found include lion, leopard, cheetah, serval, hyena and African wild dog. Game drives are the most successful way to explore the open grass plains, the Miombo woodlands and granite rocks are great for walking safaris and the Kafue River invites you to go boating or canoeing. Nanzhila Lake camp is well situated to visit the release facility of orphaned elephants in Zambia. You will enjoy the friendly and welcoming people of Zambia and experience the cultures of 7 different tribes, at five well selected owner run camps, managed in an ecofriendly and socially sustainable manner.
