Wildlife & Walking in South Luangwa

South Luangwa National Park in Zambia, which marks the end of the Great Rift Valley, is one of the world’s last unspoilt wilderness areas. On this superb trip, you stay in authentic low-impact camps with a focus on superb guiding and exploring the Luangwa wilderness by 4x4 and on foot.

Tiny Tafika is a wonderful owner-run camp with strong links to the community. John and Carol Coppinger have lived here for over 20 years and the camp is known for its homely atmosphere and superb guiding team - not to mention the food. It sits right on the banks of the Luangwa River just outside the national park with access to the game-rich Nsefu sector - brilliant for a whole range of wildlife but particularly leopard.

Your then embark on a very special experience, joining the Chikoko Trails for the next four nights, staying deep in the Luangwa wilderness at two different bush camps with bags of character.
