Introduction

This bush adventure harkens back to yesteryear, offering a traditional safari with an outstanding wildlife experience in simple, comfortable accommodations. 

You'll be met at Lusaka airport and transfer by air to Kafue National Park, the country's oldest national park. This area is home to an abundant variety of wildlife, including lion and leopard.  Musekese Camp is set close to the Kafue River. Activities are split between walking, boating and driving. Additionally, there is also a hide on the opposite bank of the river overlooking a flooded dambo area which provides wonderful opportunities for those guests keen on photography. 

The adventure continues with a short flight down to the Lower Zambezi for a further 4 nights at Kutali camp. The region is home to a diverse array of wildlife including elephant, hippos, crocodiles, zebra and antelope as well as a myriad of birdlife.

Kutali is tucked away amongst the Winterthorn trees, there are 4 tents which have been designed to make the most of the Lower Zambezi environment – they are simple gauze tents with canvas drop down sides, which blend into nature. There is an en-suite bathroom with bucket showers and flushing loos. Enjoy bush walks and canoeing in addition to game drives on the banks of the mighty Zambezi river.  Evenings are spent trading stories around the campfire.
