DAYS 3-4
Fly to the South Luangwa National Park
Today you will be transferred to the airport for the short 1 hour flight to Mfuwe – the gateway to the South Luangwa park. Spend two nights at your camp in this beautiful region, famed for its high density of leopard amongst many other big game species. It is also a bird watchers paradise, with more than 400 species recorded here.
DAYS 5-6
Explore on foot
After breakfast it is time to head deep into the bush for a truly exhilarating experience. South Luangwa is the original home of the walking safari, and the remote Island Bush Camp offers a thrilling raw location on the banks of the Luangwa River. Spend two nights in this pristine wilderness environment with game walks led by expert rangers.
DAY 7
Sleepout in South Luangwa
Return to Three Rivers Camp, perhaps opting to walk between the camps, for a final night in the South Luangwa. Why not experience the stunning African night sky and sleep under the stars on your private sleep out deck, listening to the sounds of the hippo wallowing in the river.
DAYS 8-9
Discover the Lower Zambezi
Transfer back to Mfuwe for your flight to the Lower Zambezi Valley. The stunning landscape here is home to an abundance of wildlife and many diverse opportunities for photographic opportunities. Spend two nights at your camp exploring the National Park and riverfront by vehicle, on foot, by boat and even on a canoe safari – a truly unique way to take in the special surroundings. With fishing and birdwatching opportunities too, this is a highlight for any safari enthusiast.
