South Luangwa National Park

Your safari starts at Lusaka Airport. On your arrival, connect with the scheduled charter flight to Mfuwe and road transfer to the lodge that will be your home base for the next 4x nights.

Tafika Camp is situated on the banks of the Luangwa River, North of the Nsefu Sector of South Luangwa National Park. The remote location of Tafika makes it ideal for those who enjoy the serenity of the bush. Nestled in the shade of giant leadwood trees, the camp has a panorama of the river and its wildlife.

You can enjoy walking safaris, unique cycling trails and game drives (day and night), during which the abundance of diverse game populations in the Nsefu sector ensure an unforgettable African safari. There is a strong, diverse population of big game in the Luangwa River valley. Elephant and Cape buffalo sightings are common as they like to swim between the mosaic of islands on the river. Lions, spotted hyenas, wild dogs and leopards are the main predators in the areas. Leopards feel especially at home in this area because of the many large trees, in which this slightly elusive cat likes to hide. Not forgetting the Thornicroft’s giraffes and Cookson’s wildebeest, which are found only in this region.
