From a vehicle you see Africa. On foot you feel, hear and smell Africa. In Zambia, and in particular the South Luangwa National Park, remains the finest place in Africa for walking safaris. The prolific game and unrivaled expertise of the local guides mean that sightings of leopard, elephant, hippo, lion and wild dog are not just rare experiences, but commonplace.
The South Luangwa Valley is one of Africa’s hidden jewels, where time has stood still. Discover Zambia’s iconic South Luangwa National Park with The Bushcamp Company; relax at Mfuwe Lodge before venturing deep into the bush and exploring on foot from three of their remote and intimate bushcamps. You will be guaranteed an unrivalled wildlife experience in one of the last unspoiled wilderness regions of Africa – the very place where the African walking safari was pioneered.

Day 3 : Bilimungwe Bushcamp
Transfer to Bilimungwe. The camp has three waterholes, above which the stilted thatch chalets sit. At Bilimungwe, the traditions of the African bushcamp meet elegance and style to create a stunning camp that feels like it has grown organically out of the surrounding landscape. Set beneath a huge mahogany tree, the heart of Bilimungwe is the cool, shady lounge area that looks out over one of the camp’s three waterholes. Settle down in a cozy armchair with a sundowner and relax as you watch an enviable display of spectacular birds and animals that clearly feel as comfortable here as you do. With the open waters of the Luangwa River also on your doorstep and a nearby plain where leopard prowl, it’s clear that this is a nature-lover’s paradise

Day 5 : Kapamba Bushcamp
Set off after breakfast on foot from Bilimungwe on a three- to four-hour journey through the bush to Kapamba Bushcamp, where you will spend the next 2 nights. Kapamba combines the isolation and superb game-viewing opportunities of a true bushcamp with a touch of... dare we say it... luxury. Set on the banks of the shallow, spring-fed eponymous river, Kapamba is surrounded by some of the park’s most diverse wildlife. Clever wrought-iron shutters are drawn each evening so that you can enjoy the sights and sounds of the African night without worrying about unwanted visitors wandering into your room whilst you sleep. And if that’s still not close enough for you, why not enjoy your G&T from the middle of the river itself, your feet dipped in the cool, crystal shallows. Get out into the bush and explore the rich diversity of the surrounding area on morning and afternoon walks, or jump into a Land Rover for a day and night game drives.
