One of the best ways to really get acquainted with the bush is to spend time walking in it. During this 12-day trip spend several days camping, walking, adventuring and stargazing in the beautiful South Luangwa. Top and tail the trip with a luxury lodge or two for good measure.

Itinerary

100% customisable for you

On arrival into Johannesburg in the early morning, connect across to the onward two-hour flight to Lusaka with your bags checked through all the way so you don't have to collect them en route. Your Lusaka flight lands around lunchtime and then it's one final connection onto an hour-long domestic flight to Mfuwe in the South Luangwa. Nobody said getting truly away from it all was easy but when you arrive in Mfuwe you'll find a driver waiting to grab your bags and whisk you into the 4x4. From the airport the drive to your lodge should be around 45 minutes and will take you into the heart of the national park, hopefully spotting game on the way.

Once at the lodge, enjoy a well-earned drink and enjoy some 'sofa safari' as you watch game coming to the river to drink from the comfort of the lounge tent.
