What you can expect from this 11 day Walking Mobile Safari:
The Luangwa Valley, which marks the end of the Great Rift Valley, is one of the last unspoilt wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. It covers an area of over 9000 sq. km. through which the meandering Luangwa River runs. The ox bow lagoons, woodland and plains of the valley host huge concentrations of game - including Elephant, Buffalo, Leopard, Lion, Giraffe, Hippo - and over 400 species of birds. Walk through this fascinating wilderness area as your Mobile Safari Camp will be moved from one site to the other.

Day 1: Nkwali CampOn arrival at Mfuwe International Airport, a representative will meet you. Enjoy the 1 hour drive to Nkwali Camp through colourful local scenes of villages, agriculture as well as bush. On a private land and overlooking the South Luangwa National Park with a wide view of the Luangwa River, Nkwali Safari Camp is ideally situated for the start of your Zambia tour.
The six rooms all look out over the river and have open air bathrooms. Depending on your arrival time in the day you will enjoy a lunch looking out over the lagoon to the back of Nkwali or arriving in the afternoon you can sit down for tea and enjoy the following afternoon / night game drive. |
Day 2: Nkwali CampAt dawn, breakfast is served around the campfire. Traditionally the porridge will be heated on the fire and toast cooked by the coals. The morning walk or drive will leave soon after, entering the park by boat from the camp or by the nearby pontoon. Game in the area is excellent - and includes many family herds of Elephants and the endemic species of Giraffe, the Thornicroft Giraffe.
A mid morning break of tea, coffee and cake will be taken by a scenic point on a lagoon or the Luangwa River. Around midday you will return to your Safari camp for lunch and can later cool off in the swimming pool or enjoy a nice siesta. Tea will be served in the afternoon and then you will head out again for an another game drive that continues into the early night giving you the chance to see the nocturnal world. |
