  • Predator Sightings: Look for lions, cheetahs, and wild dogs as they roam this remote wilderness.

Begin your journey at Mukambi Safari Lodge, where you’ll enjoy a relaxing afternoon boat cruise on the Kafue River. Watch for hippos and elephants along the riverbank before settling in for the evening.

Travel to Busanga Plains Camp and immerse yourself in the unique wetland ecosystem of Busanga Plains. Enjoy daily game drives across the expansive plains, where the open landscapes provide perfect opportunities for spotting lions, lechwe, buffalo, and a myriad of bird species. Relax at the camp, swim in the pool, or enjoy the views from the elevated deck.

Return to Mukambi Safari Lodge and unwind with an afternoon activity of your choice. Take a guided bush walk or try fishing on the river, soaking up the peaceful surroundings.
