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
