Land of the Big Cats

Safari Club - Land_of_the_Big_Cats

This is a superb 4×4 safari exploring the game rich central section of Zambia’s superb South Luangwa National Park and the remote and undeveloped Southern region of the park where other vehicles are rarely encountered.

The accommodation is a mixture of high quality mid-sized safari lodges and wonderful little bush camps where both the quality of the camps and of the game viewing are not compromised.

South Luangwa is very scenic, much of it set against a backdrop of the river itself and its many tributaries and lagoons as well as the Muchinga Escarpment and the Chindeni Hills. The beautiful river acts as a magnet for game, the mass and variety to be found is impressive. Over time, the river’s course has carved a multitude of channels that in winter, form lagoons and oxbow lakes, which are the focus of attention for the fascinating mammals and birdlife of South Luangwa.

OUR OPINION

“Land of the Big Cats” is a superb, high quality safari with fantastic wildlife, staying in small, high quality, authentic bush camps in a beautiful park. An opportunity to visit one of Africa’s truly pristine wilderness areas where nature can be experienced in tooth and claw. Difficult to beat as an all-round package and with all transfers being game drive transfers, your holiday time is fully utilised.

South Luangwa has a very large population of lions and is also one of the best places to see leopard in Africa with regular sightings being made on night drives along with other smaller cats and nocturnal hunters. Elephants and giraffe are plentiful and countless hippos and crocodiles lurk in the cool waters of the river.

Why not add a few days at Victoria Falls to enhance your safari experience?

WHO SHOULD GO

Perfect for a first safari or first time visit to Zambia, as a wonderful trip for that once in a lifetime experience or special occasion. This safari may particularly appeal to guests wishing to walk within a National Park with a trained guide and armed ranger which is not permitted in most other African National Parks. This is a great stand-alone safari or it can be the centrepiece of a longer safari visiting other regions such as Lake Malawi, Kafue National Park, Lower Zambezi National Park or North Luangwa.
