Morning and Evening Game Drive in Kafue National Park

After breakfast, you will head out for a morning game drive to spot some of Kafue National Park’s best wildlife spots, such as the Busanga Plains, where you can see antelopes, elephants, zebras, and lions. Rare species to look out for include red lechwe, sable, and the African wild dogs, as well as the elusive cheetah.

Watch hippos splashing in Lake Itezhi-Tezhi and look to the skies to see the various bird species that live in the trees around the Busanga Swamp, such as African finfoot, half-collard kingfisher, and African skimmer.

After a few hours of resting at your lodge, you will go for an evening game drive. Several small rivers cross this area which leaves several waterholes in the dry season for the animals to quench their thirst. Wild dogs, which roam large areas of the park, and cheetahs and lions are among the inhabitants here.
