Day 1

Arrival

Arrival

On arrival at Lusaka International Airport, you will be met by a Robin Pope Safaris' representative who will have a name board with your names. You will be assisted with checking in for your flight to Mfuwe, South Luangwa. The flight is on average one hour. At Mfuwe International Airport a guide from Robin Pope Safaris will meet you for game drive transfer to Tena Tena, in the Nsefu Sector of the South Luangwa. The Nsefu Sector was recognized then as a phenomenal area and it still is.

Tena Tena is a remote intimate camp which lies within the Nsefu Sector, enjoys a stunning location on a bend of the Luangwa River. Most meals are taken under the shade of a huge Mahogany tree in the centre of the camp. On arrival you will be shown to your tent and then lunch will be served followed by a well-deserved siesta before the afternoon and evening game drive.

Day 2-4

South Luangwa

South Luangwa

After breakfast around the campfire, your safari will continue with another relaxing day in the Nsefu Sector, with morning and evening game activities. Depending on time of year an all day picnic drive covering different habitats comes highly recommended and is an exceptional day’s safari.

A few more days to explore the Tena Tena area fully - a chance to drive or walk through the ebony groves. Or you may decide this is an ideal day, depending on the heat and time of year, to explore further afield. Possibly a day tour to Kawaza village for a cultural experience or Tribal Textiles to get some insight on local industry plus a chance to buy some souvenirs. Nothing is set in stone and your days will be designed and planned with you bearing your interests in mind. You can mix and match activities to maximize your experience in this game rich and remote area of the Luangwa.

Day 5-8

Lower Zambezi

Lower Zambezi

In the morning you fly to Lower Zambezi your flight to Lower Zambezi National Park. Situated on the banks of the Ngwenya channel is the rustic and charming Amanzi Camp. It is made up of 4 traditional, luxurious safari tents, positioned on a raised wooden deck allow for game to wonder around freely and to give you a magnificent view of the Lower Zambezi National Park. Where the Zambezi River and Mushika Flood Plain meet, is also the meeting spot for hundreds of animal species. Come morning or night, you’ll be greeted with an array of game from the comfort of your tent. Lower Zambezi is great for water-based activities and during your stay you can enjoy an array of activities such as canoeing, boating and fishing with game drives and walking as a bonus. You therefore have a full range of activities on offer for these two days; the choice is all yours. Tiger fishing (on a catch and release basis) is a must for a keen fisherman.
