...in Zambia...

The Luangwa Explorer (8 days) 

A 7 night, 8 day safari in the South Luangwa National Park, Zambia.  Definitely our favourite safari over the last 9 seasons, distinguished by truly excellent game, an emphasis on walking and some of the best guides and hosts you'll find in Africa.  

The Wild Luangwa Safari

A 10 night trip focussing on the remote and wilder areas in Zambia’s Luangwa valley - small owner-run camps, great guides, excellent game and no crowds!

The "Green Season" safari (one of Southern Africa's top trips during the rains...)

A 7 night safari during the Luangwa Valley "green season" from November to May inclusive.  A very special trip offering un-crowded conditions, good game, excellent birding and a rare opportunity to experience rich African bush during the rainy season.

The North Luangwa extension

A 3 night safari into the remote and truly wild North Luangwa using Kutandala.  As logistics can be very difficult this trip should ideally be done as an add-on to the Luangwa Explorer or as part of the "Wild Luangwa" safari

The Lower Zambezi Safari (5 nights) 

A 5 night, 6 day all-inclusive safari combining two locations in the Lower Zambezi National Park - blending the luxury of a safari lodge with the traditional comforts of a remote bushcamp.

Botswana's Selinda extension (3 nights) 

A 3 night, 4 day safari in the Selinda private reserve.  We consider the Selinda to be the best spot for walking trails in Botswana.  This short trip combines perfectly with our Okavango, Kalahari, Victoria Falls and Chobe safaris...speak to us about how to fit it all together

The Chobe Safari Package (3 nights) 

Our most popular and best value-for-money short extension on the Chobe River Front.  This is a 4 day, activity filled trip that starts and ends in Kasane.  Includes dinner, bed and breakfast accommodation, activities and local transfers.
