After the border, you'll continue to Mfuwe —South Luangwa National Park. You'll stop for a packed picnic lunch just outside of Chipata and continue the last two hours to your lodge.

You'll arrive mid-afternoon in South Luangwa and relax on the edge of the Luangwa River. No activity has been scheduled for this afternoon, but you can book and pay for additional activities directly with your lodge.
You'll enjoy dinner and an early evening before your first scheduled activity the next morning!

Day 2

Explore South Luangwa National Park

Explore South Luangwa National Park

It's an early morning wake-up call in camp.
Tea, coffee, and a light breakfast are served and you head out to make it into the park as it opens. Morning game drives are a great opportunity to search for wildlife either waking up for the day or heading back home after a night out.
Your drive is about 4 hours this morning and you stop halfway through for a tea and coffee break in the park.
You'll slowly return then to lunch at the lodge.
You'll relax in the heat of the day whilst most animals find shelter from the sun. There's a pool and a stocked bar. Your guide is available to take you into town and visit the shops and projects.
Late afternoon, it's tea, coffee, and cake time before heading out for your afternoon/evening drive. You'll stop halfway for a sundowner and slowly return to the lodge on a night drive to see if we can find those elusive evening animals heading out for their nightly activities.
You'll return to the lodge for dinner and sleep!

Another perfect day out in the park to explore the area.

You will enjoy your last night falling asleep to the calls of the wild!
