South Luangwa

On arrival in the Mfuwe airport you will be met by a representative and driven to Tafika.

There is also the opportunity to visit local village. Overnight Tafika Camp.

Day 02

Early morning wake up and then depart on a guided walk or game drive. You might even like to try an early morning micro-light flight (available for an extra charge) gliding above the river.

After breakfast today, with only your camera and binoculars to carry, you will leave Tafika and begin your journey on foot to the Chikoko Trails bush camps.

Overnight Chikoko Tree Camp or Crocodile River Camp.

Day 04
