Itineraries

Day 1

Arrival in Livingstone

As soon as you land at Livingstone's "Harry Mwanga Nkumbula" International Airport (LVI), we'll be there with a warm welcome, ready to whisk you away to the lodge. Once we're there, we'll get everything set for the upcoming 8-Day Sable Safari. You'll be chilling out in comfy rooms during your stay. 🛬🏠

Day 2

Mosi-oa-Tunya NP / Victoria Falls

Guess what? Livingstone's Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is home to Square-lipped Rhinos, also known as White Rhinos! Early in the morning, while it's still nice and cool, we'll hit up the national park for a walking safari. It's a fantastic opportunity to experience nature at ground level, check out some tracks, and chat about plants and their uses. Our mission? Get up close to some White Rhinos. After this active adventure, we'll chill out with a picnic by the river.

And of course, a visit to Livingstone wouldn't be complete without witnessing the majestic Victoria Falls, and that's exactly on the agenda for the afternoon.

Accommodations? You'll be resting your head in comfy rooms. As for lunch and dinner, you're the boss of your own accounts. 🦏🌳

Day 3-4

Southern Kafue National Park

Leaving Livingstone, the original capital of Northern Rhodesia, we're heading northward back to the wild. Our destination? The southern part of Kafue National Park, featuring Mopane and Teak woodlands, the Nanzhila Plains, and Lake Itezhi-Tezhi. Keep your eyes peeled for Buffaloes and Elephants! Fun fact: "Game Rangers International" runs Camp Phoenix in this area, a special spot for orphaned elephant babies. Day 4 brings us to feeding time for the little elephants, and we're excited to pay them a visit. Accommodations? Cozying up in our spacious canvas dome tents. 🏞️🐘

Day 5-6

Central Kafue National Park

Heading a bit more north within Kafue National Park now. This park is like Zambia's wildlife hotspot, the biggest and most diverse. Imagine it's as vast as Wales or Massachusetts. Since we're right within this wildlife haven, we roll on a game drive all the way to the next camp. Picture us crossing tiny creeks, cruising over hills, eyes peeled for any critters and feathered friends. Our camp nestles along the Kafue River, and we'll be chilling in our comfy large canvas dome tents. Day 6? More game drive loops on the agenda! 🌳🚙

Day 7

Lusaka

After our final breakfast in the wilderness, we'll pack up everything with a mix of nostalgia and excitement for the journey ahead. The drive out of Kafue National Park marks our last wildlife adventure on this safari. Once we hit the tarmac, we'll head east towards Lusaka. The grand finale of our 8-Day Sable Safari awaits in Lusaka, promising comfortable rooms for a good night's rest. 🌅🚙

Day 8

Departure / End of Safari

Following a cozy night at the lodge, we'll share our final breakfast together. Depending on your flight schedule, we can either explore some sights in Lusaka or simply kick back and relax. When it's time to bid farewell, we'll make sure you're smoothly transferred to Lusaka's "Kenneth Kaunda" International Airport (LUN) for your onward journey. 🌅🍳
