About Mukambi Safari Lodge
Mukambi Safaris is a family run safari company in Zambia with three camps in Kafue National Park, one of the largest unspoiled wilderness areas in the world. The three camps are Mukambi Safari Lodge, Busanga Plains Camp, and Fig Tree Bush Camp, each surrounded by unique, untouched areas of remote African bush. Recently Mukambi Safaris won two awards in ‘The Big Tusker - Ultimate Safari Experiences 2017’.
Activities consist of game drives in open-canopy vehicles, boat and fishing trips, along with walking safaris where you are likely to see elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah, puku, impala, hippo, many other animals and an incredible array of birds. Back at the lodge our delicious food, friendly staff and comfortable accommodation will make your stay an unforgettable one. Our accommodation consists of a luxurious Riverside Villa, comfortable en-suite chalets and four luxury safari tents, all on stilts with a deck overlooking the river, with a private outdoor bathtub which makes for extraordinary star gazing.
Come and experience it all at Mukambi Safari Lodge for the famous last words of Karen Blixen, the writer of Out of Africa, were ‘if there was one thing I could do again, it would be to go on Safari'
