Experience comfort in the wild

affordable safari packages

Regardless of where you stay when visiting South Luangwa National Park, you are guaranteed to have an incredible experience. However, spending a little extra and staying in a more upmarket lodge may make that experience even more special.

These lodges fit into our mid-budget category. Packages range from $510USD to $1396USD per person and packages are either 2 nights/3 days or 3 nights/4 days. Whether you want to stay longer or shorter, packages can be tailored to your exact requirements, 

WILDLIFE CAMP

Guests can expect a wonderful and authentic African bush experience. Wildlife Camp is known for its down-to-earth style and offer rustic chalets, secluded en-suite tented camps and a bush camp for overnight walking safaris. The restaurant overlooks a drinking-hole, which means you can sometimes share a drink with the local tower of giraffes!
