Kafue National Park - A classic African safari destination
Read more
the infrastructure is limited and independent travellers will need to prepare much of what they need for their trip in advance. (Some good accomodation possibilities exist around the parks periphary, although almost nothing is available in the interior). However, the quiet nature of Kafue is also one of its biggest appeals. A visitor can travel large distances without seeing a single other tourist, and will have vast landscapes and abundant African wildlife to themselves. In all, Kafue in something of a challenging safari destination, although will reward adventurous travellers with a classic African landscape which they will be able to enjoy almost entirely to themselves.

Wild and lonley, fantastic wildlife, nice beetles
We did a entomolgical research trip with own car. Wonderful and very wild and lonley.
Take care you have a GPS with you when you are not guided, the roadsigns are sometimes difficult to find. When you dont like Tsetse flies, dont go in rainy season, but then you will miss insect life.

We saw one other vehicle during our 3 day stay in Kafue. Wildlife viewing requires a canny eye, but the bush experience makes it all worth the trip.

It feels very remote and doesn't have the vibe that you're in the middle of a tourist zone like in Tanzania.

Nice and remote park. You are free to do what you want.Problem: pouching, wildlife often poor and shy.

Kafue is a great national park. I recommend Mukumbi Lodge, where they offer great food, and excellent game drives. My favorite memory of Kafue is driving along the road and running into lion, just lying there on the road.
