The Zambian
Safari circuit is largely unknown and
traditionally, was seen as a difficult area to
access. This is no longer the case. This
perception has mostly changed as access to the
camps has increased in the past few years.
The
draw card to this wildlife circuit is that the
areas are mostly untouched and quite beautifully
wild and remote - you will not be disappointed -
the wilderness is pristine with excellent game
sightings. For those clients who want an
intimate bush experience, in a truly remote and
beautiful part of Africa, the Zambian Circuit is
ideal.
Puku Ridge
Tented Camp - South Luangwa National Park
The camp is
small and intimate, built unobtrusively hugging
the wilderness. Each of the six comfortably
furnished safari tents has its own bathroom
which also provides the option to take a shower
with the ‘sun on your shoulders.

local cultural fishing village by banana boat.
The South Luangwa National Park is a
place of primaeval forest and lush savanna,

adjacent highlands and a mosaic of different
habitats extending outwards from the central
river. Activities in South Luangwa National Park
include open safari vehicle game drives in the
early morning and late afternoon/evening and
guided walks.
These 2 camps offer are a great combination, as
Lechwe Plains (Lochinvar National Park) offers a
great birding experience with a cultural element
while Puku Ridge (South Luangwa National Park)
offers the traditional game drive experience
where guests can view an abundants of varied
wildlife including the four of the 'Big Five'
(elephant, lion, buffalo and leopard).
Remember that another combination option is to
include Kulefu Tented Camp in the Lower Zambezi
National Park, which is a seasonal destination.
It is only open from May - Oct each year, due to
the rainy season. Lower Zambezi National Park is
a water wilderness area on the banks of the
mighty Zambezi River. There are many activity
options available in this area from walking
under the guidance of a professional guide, game
drives in open safari vehicles and game viewing
on the water along the banks of the Zambezi by
canoes. |
