Additional Information

Day 1: Arrive South Luangwa National Park, Zambia

Day 2: South Luangwa National Park

After breakfast, depart for your intimate bushcamp, located in the remote parts of the South Luangwa National Park.

Day 4: South Luangwa National Park

The South Luangwa National Park is the place to experience the original walking safari, a “heart thumping” way to get close to nature and feel her pulse. An impressive 5,000 square miles, it is one of Africa’s last true wildernesses, and probably southern Africa’s best kept secret. (BLD)

Listen for the cry of the fish eagle as you continue your exploration of the pristine wilderness.
