Depending on the time of the flight to Mfuwe, you may need a night in Lusaka. You will have a flight to Mfuwe where you will meet by Kafunta and be transferred to the camp. Here your activities are game drives which after sundowners continue into night drives, excellent walking, as well as a photographic hide that you can enjoy and even a spa.
Kafunta River Lodge is owned and operated by Anke & Ron Cowan who have made the Luangwa Valley their home for the past 20 years. The 10-room lodge is located on the floodplains of the Luangwa River, away from the busier area near the park's Mfuwe gate. It offers superb panoramic views over the Luangwa River and the South Luangwa National Park. Great game viewing and bird watching from the lodge is guaranteed.
Today, you will have a game drive through the park to Three Rivers Camp, set at the confluence of the Luangwa, Kapamba and Lusangazi Rivers. The stylish tents lay under shady sausage trees and face either the Luangwa River or the game-rich lagoon. Each tent has its own wooden deck with comfy chairs to enjoy the surrounding vistas, en-suite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, double sinks and flushing toilets. Here you will be able to go on game drives and walks.
Sadly your final day has arrived and you will have a transfer to Mfuwe to meet your flight to Lusaka. You will need to ensure your international flight is at a time that allows you to connect with your flight from Mfuwe.

Every now and then a destination becomes so famous that people start questioning whether it can possibly live up to its own reputation. Serengeti National Park is one of those places. You have seen the photographs, watched the documentaries, read the articles, and somewhere in the back of your mind a small but persistent voice is asking whether the reality can genuinely match the legend.

The short answer is yes. The longer answer is that the Serengeti does not just live up to its reputation it quietly exceeds it in ways that no photograph or documentary has ever managed to fully capture, and here is exactly why.
