Day 1: Mfuwe LodgeArrive in Lusaka or Lilongwe airports - a representative from the charter company will meet you and transfer you onto a light aircraft to Mfuwe. At Mfuwe International Airport, a representative will meet you and take you in an open LandRover back to Mfuwe Lodge. Mfuwe Lodge is a luxurious lodge situated inside the South Luangwa National Park, Zambia.
It is one of only 2 permanent lodges inside the National Park. The Lodge is open 12 months of the year and is surrounded by an excellent all weather road network, which allows for extensive game viewing by vehicle. Night drive, dinner and overnight at Mfuwe Lodge. |
Days 2 & 3: Chamilandu Bush CampThe next morning, road transfer to Chamilandu. Spend the first 2 nights of your Luangwa Encounter, at Chamilandu exploring the Ebony groves and ox bow lagoons. Chamilandu Bush camp offers the connoisseur comfort, class and beauty in one of the Luangwa's prime river venues.
Open to a 180 degrees vista, the front of each tree house chalet provides the exciting frame for all of Luangwa Valleys diversity. Subtle décor adorns the 2m high tree houses. The tasteful blend of wrought iron and brass offsets the cream and pastels that welcome you to rest and relax. A series of seven ox-bow lagoons yield dramatic habitat changes and attract an abundance of wildlife. |
Days 4 & 5: ChindeniAfter an early breakfast at Chamilandu, set off on your walking trail to Chindeni, arriving in time for a hearty brunch.
Spend 2 nights of your Zambia safari at Chindeni viewing the game from your own private raised wooden decking over the still waters of the lagoon and exploring the evergreen forests on foot. Surrounded by majestic hills, shaded by ancient Ebonies and nestled on the apex of an ox-bow lagoon, Chindeni helps weave the spell that is Africa. Chindeni will stand proud in your memory as a place of magic. |
Days 6 & 7: Bilimungwe Bush CampWalking south once more, towards the confluence of the Kapamba and Luangwa rivers, Bilimungwe Bush Camp holds the distinction of being the southernmost camp in the National park. It offers not only the solitude you have come to enjoy, but also the ideal opportunity to discover yet another face of the Luangwa Valley, exploring on foot or in a vehicle.
Bilimungwe's permanent water hole is a popular venue for wildlife and the shallow clear Kapamba River offers the perfect setting to cool down, relax and reflect on the Luangwa encounter that you have just experienced. |
