3 days overland transfer to/fro Kafue National Park central
Joined 2022
Overview: Kafue National Park is Zambia’s prime location for a ‘wild’ safari. It is utterly wild, untouched and jammed full of wildlife in a raw African setting. You will not see too many tourists in this park due to its unique geopolitical location. Sighting of wild animals is an exciting adventure as wild animals are sparsely populated due to the large size of the Kafue National Park. The difficulties of reaching the central part of the Park by road is what hinders most people visiting.
