Activities

Over 45 mammal species have been recorded in the Kafue so even regular safari goers can find wildlife that is new to them – Aadvark, Pangolin, Caracal to name but a few of the more unusual sightings. 

Sadly there are no longer any Black Rhino, but our Big Cat viewings are excellent.  Birdwatching is exceptional here, we have rarities such as the African Finfoot and Pels Fishing Owl.  

Nocturnal wildlife include leopard, porcupines, genet mongoose, civet and jackals, among others

We take time to show you both big and small mammals and often the tiny delights like butterflies and busy spiders and beetles.  We offer a variety of ways to observe the wildlife in their own habitat, these include:

Game Drives

Early morning and sundowner game drives in open vehicles.  The sundowner drive turns into a night drive that reveals the nocturnals.

Walking Safaris

Walking at a leisurely pace through the bush, with a guide and armed scout affords the opportunity to get closer to nature, we concentrate on both fauna, flora and spoor.

Boating Safaris

Walking at a leisurely pace through the bush, with a guide and armed scout affords the opportunity to get closer to nature, we concentrate on both fauna, flora and spoor.

Self Drive with or without a Guide

If you are in your own vehicle, we have highly experienced guides who can accompany you and show you the best places to look for game. They are available fora few hours, a full day or longer if booked in advance. 

Fishing

If you have your own fishing gear, you can fish on the river’s edge or take the boat with a guide down the Kafue, or into the channels.  Popular catches in the Kafue River are Bream, are good fish for cooking. Also catfish and Barbel.
