Safaris in untouched wilderness
A special trip for the adventurous and more experienced safari-goer to pristine destinations; two of the very best wildlife parks, both unique in their kind. On an adventure accompanied by expert guides!
In the remote Liuwa Plains National Park you will stay at Matamanene Camp, a research camp and the only permanent camp in Liuwa Plains. It is the base for many safaris in search of cheetahs, wild dogs, hyenas, lions and many species of rare birds. Not to mention the thousands of wildebeest; the second largest migration in the world takes place here in November.
In the spectular South Luangwa you will stay at the eco-friendly and luxurious Chinzombo. The lodge is situated on the meandering Luangwa River, the lifeline of the surrounding green riverine forests, teeming with wildlife. With your guide, you will create a customized program each day; on foot, by boat or by 4x4 into the bush at your convenience.
