Introduction

Kafue - which is located in Zambia, is one of the world’s largest National Parks. It covers an area of around 8,600 square miles (22,400 km2). It is situated in the western part of Zambia, and is about a 3 hour drive from the capital of Lusaka.


Not only is Kafue impressive by its sheer size it has a fascinating diversity of habitats within its boundaries. There are dense forests, green and grassy savannah, mopane woodlands and the huge Busanga floodplains covering 290 square miles (750 sq km). All of which attract a wide variety of wildlife. There are also 3 major rivers within the park: the Kafue, Lunga and Lupufu all lead into the Itehzi Tehzi Dam which is situated in the south area of the park. This allows for both land and water safari activities to be conducted in this fascinating area, which increases the chance of sighting many different types of animal.

This 7-night Safari includes 2 nights at Mukambi Safari Lodge, 2 nights at Fig Tree Bush Camp and 3 nights in our Busanga Plains Camp.
