Arrival at Lusaka Airport & Transfer to Ila Safari Lodge

Day 1Arrival at Lusaka Airport & Transfer to Ila Safari Lodge Arrival at Lusaka Airport & Transfer to Ila Safari Lodge On arrival at Lusaka’s International Airport, you will be met and assisted to board your light aircraft charter to Ila Safari Lodge. Ila Safari Lodge overlooks the Kafue River and is located in the eastern part of the Kafue National Park, Africa’s largest National Park. You'll arrive at Ila Safari Lodge and check into your Luxury Safari Tents, each individually designed to mesh with their wild surrounds and open to sweeping views of the Kafue River. You'll enjoy afternoon tea before heading out for some afternoon activities such as a sunset boat cruise or a game drive. This very eco-conscious lodge operates fully electric, solar-powered e-cruiser boats and electric game-drive vehicles, providing a very silent wildlife-viewing experience. Alternatively, you may of course also opt to simply relax at the lodge by taking a dip in the pool or enjoying a massage. Upon return to the lodge, dinner awaits you.

Light Aircraft Transfer to Chisa Busanga Camp

Day 4Light Aircraft Transfer to Chisa Busanga Camp Light Aircraft Transfer to Chisa Busanga Camp This morning a light aircraft transfer will take you from Ila Safari Lodge to Chisa Busanga Camp. Chisa Busanga Camp is located in the northern part of the Kafue National Park amidst the Busanga Plains. It does not get more remote than this and staying in the Busanga Plains offers a fantastic and exclusive wilderness experience with almost no other vehicles around on game drives. This area is also considered to have the best wildlife viewing in the whole of Kafue National Park. Chisa is the Nyanja word for ‘bird nest. The very unique rooms that you will check into were inspired by the weaver bird nests that decorate the trees here. This camp is also only powered by solar power, so are the game-drive vehicles and bicycles used to explore the watery surrounds (called ‘dambos’ by the locals). After settling into your luxurious ‘bird’s nest’ room, you will enjoy an afternoon game activity. You'll return to the camp for a delicious dinner under the African sky.
