    The package includes return economy airfare with ProFlight from Johannesburg to Mfuwe Airport (departing at 12h00, arriving at 17h20), the gateway to South Luangwa.

The transfer from the airport to the camp is approximately 45 minutes.   Enjoy an afternoon/evening game drive in the park.

  • Day 2, 3 & 4: South Luangwa National Park

    Game drive transfer to the southern region of the park (roughly 3 hours) to your camp, where we will stay for the next three nights. The camp lies on the edge of a permanent lagoon, boasting prolific wildlife and birdlife. Set out on superb walking safaris, game drives, night drives and scenic sundowner trips in the surrounding area, or settle yourself in a deckchair at camp and watch the abundance of game drawn to the lagoon. The game is excellent in this park area, and as it is in such a remote area, you are unlikely to see other vehicles.
