Includes international flights from a choice of UK airports, including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

  • Today you begin your journey by boarding your international outbound flight to Lusaka.

  • Arrive in Lusaka and connect onto a light aircraft flight to Mfuwe. Upon arrival in Mfuwe, transfer through the South Luangwa Park to your lodge. Enjoy an afternoon game drive in the park.

  • A day of safari activities from Chinzombo. You can go out on walking safaris or game drives with your guide, as well as a night drive to spot some of the nocturnal wildlife of the Luangwa.

  • Today, you will take a safari drive across to Mchenja Bushcamp. The camp overlooks the Luangwa River and is shaded by ebony trees. Relax at camp before going on an afternoon/evening safari activity.

  • Today, you will participate in morning and afternoon game-viewing activities. The South Luangwa National Park is regarded as one of the finest safari destinations in Africa, and the game is phenomenally varied.

  • You will leave the South Luangwa today and catch your onward flight to the Lower Zambezi. You will be met at the airstrip and driven to camp. Here, you can relax before heading out to explore on your evening game activity. The sunsets in the Lower Zambezi are fantastic, so make sure you make the most of them.

  • A full day of game-viewing activities around Sausage Tree. You will be taken out on the morning, afternoon and evening activities of your choice. Sausage Tree prides itself on tailoring activities to your needs. You may like to drive in the beautiful woodland areas of the Lower Zambezi. This is home to elephants, leopards, giraffes and more.
