Day 1-3

Fly Lusaka to Kafue National Park

Fly Lusaka to Kafue National Park

On arrival at Lusaka Airport, you will be met and escorted to your aircraft for the transfer to Ila Safari Lodge.

As a luxury tented lodge sensitive to the pristine ecosystem of Kafue National Park, Ila Safari Lodge is intimately woven into the stillness of its place on the Kafue River.

From environmentally friendly, locally sourced building materials and solar-powered electricity to the development of Zambia’s first electric game drive vehicle, Ila is a truly environmentally conscious safari experience. Yet it still manages to effortlessly infuse modern African style, elegance, and comfort to make this your unique bush retreat in the heart of Kafue.

Our 10 Luxury Safari Tents are individually designed to mesh with their wild surroundings and open to sweeping views of the Kafue River. Families can also enjoy a private space of Kafue wilderness in our two larger suites.

Activities include game drives, walking safaris, and boat safaris.

Day 4-6

Kafue National Park

Kafue National Park

The flight to Chisa takes about 20 minutes and will be done after the morning activity.

Chisa is the Nyanja word for ‘birds nest’, and the rooms were inspired by the weaver bird nests that decorate the trees here. Sitting on a small tree-lined island, the camp uses only solar power as do the game drive vehicles and bicycles used to explore the watery dambos beyond. Chisa Busanga Camp celebrates the natural and cultural heritage of the Busanga Plains, a place that will leave an indelible imprint on your mind, as it has on ours.

Our four Nests blend seamlessly into the wild outdoors paying attention to the creature comforts needed inside for a luxurious nesting and sleeping experience. The Busanga Plains, secreted away in the northern part of the Kafue National Park is one of the untouched wilderness areas in Africa. Within its quietness, this wetland ecosystem bristles with diverse life that makes for a special safari experience. Activities include game drives and walking safaris.
