Luxury For Less Safari

Day 1: South Luangwa

• Lusaka to Mfuwe we fly heading to the South Luangwa National Park.
• On the drive to Nkwali Camp, we pass through local villages, agriculture as well as wild African bush.
• Nkwali Camp is our home for the next four days.
• After checking in, lunch or high tea awaits.
• An introductory afternoon game drive into the South Luangwa National Park is what we have been waiting for.
• Overnight: Nkwali Camp

Days 2-4: South Luangwa

• The next few days are in general spent game viewing, either by vehicle or by legendary bush walking safaris.
• Breakfasts, mid morning and afternoon teas, coffees and cakes, lunches and dinners are par for the course.
• Each day we enter the National park from our private concession via either the nearby pontoon or by boat over the Luangwa River.
• The game in the area is excellent - and includes many family herds of elephants and the endemic species of giraffe, the Thornicroft Giraffe.
• We at Uyaphi.com can highly recommend morning bush walks, the terrain is flat, the guides are brilliant and the wildlife abounds around every corner.
• Game drives are recommended in the late afternoons and early evenings, as one gets to move greater distances to see the Big cats.
• Overnight: Nkwali Camp

Day 5: Zambezi River

• We leave the South Luangwa and fly direction Lower Zambezi (South).
• Chongwe River Camp is our home for the next three days, located on the confluence of the Chongwe and Zambezi rivers.
• Arriving in time for lunch with vistas over this spectacular valley.
• As an afternoon activity, we suggest a boat safari along the Zambezi River culminating in sunset drinks on the river itself.
• Back in time for an alfresco dinner and chat around the campfire
• Overnight: Chongwe River Camp

Days 6-7: Zambezi River

• Your days on the Lower Zambezi are spent taking part in some of the most diverse wildlife activities found anywhere in Africa.
• Canoeing down the Zambezi River is certainly a must.
• Morning and afternoon game drives into the Lower Zambezi National Park
• Fishing for Africa's premier game fish, the Tiger that can grow as big as 10-12 kg (catch and release policy is in place).
• And last but certainly not least, sun-downer boat trips a perfect end to your days here in Zambia.
