SPEAK TO THE SPECIALISTS
This is just one idea. We have lots more up our sleeve. So let’s talk Zambia, call 01273 923100 now. Or if you are worried the boss will be listening in, drop us an email, holidays@sundownerholidays.co.uk

DETAILED ITINERARY

Day 1: London to Lusaka
Fly overnight from the UK to Lusaka.

Day 2: Lusaka to South Luangwa
On arrival you will be met and assisted onto your flight to Mfuwe, the gateway to the South Luangwa National Park, where you will be met and transferred into the park to start your safari with 2 nights at Mfuwe Lodge. A National Geographic Unique Lodge that receives a huge amount of repeat guests including a herd of elephants which has featured in many documentaries as it makes its annual journey through the reception of the lodge!

Day 3: South Luangwa
Full day of game viewing in the densely populated central Mfuwe region. This really is one of the safari highlights of Africa and you will able to enjoy expertly led safaris on 4×4 game drives through the park, sundowners in the bush and night drives back to camp.

Day 4: South Luangwa 
Moving south through the park this morning (game viewing en route) you will head to one of the best bush camps in the park, Kapamba Bush Camp, to spend a further 2 nights in this predator rich region of the park.

Operated by Andy Hogg and his Bushcamp Company, one of the finest safari companies in Africa, we love this camp for its prime location on the Kapamba River, great guiding and romantic atmosphere with only 4 chalets with private plunge pools. Talk  to us about why we have designed this idea around two separate locations in South Luangwa & then let’s start designing your Zambia holiday.

Day 5: South Luangwa 
A final full day of game viewing in the South Luangwa. Another amazing game viewing region, the main activities at Kakuli are expertly guided 4×4 game drives and walking safaris. The night drives can be a real highlight as this region is home to a lot of predators that are getting ready for the hunt!

Day 6: South Luangwa to the Lower Zambezi
Enjoying a final activity and breakfast you will be transferred back to Mfuwe airport for your flight to the Lower Zambezi National Park where you will spend your final 4 nights on safari at Kasaka River Lodge. A lovely tented camp on the banks of the Zambezi, it offers a very relaxed atmosphere and great guiding on a variety of safari activities. “Stay 4 pay 3” Special

Days 7 to 9:  Lower Zambezi
Two full days to enjoy one of our favourite parks in Africa! With lots of cats, big elephant herds and hippos you can enjoy game drives, walking safaris, boat safaris, canoe safaris and even a spot of a fishing. With the beautiful escarpment to the north and Zambezi River to the south this is a perfect spot for one of those African “Sundowner Moments”. Want to add-in an extra day on safari in the Lower Zambezi? Call us on 01273 923100 and let’s start designing a Zambia holiday tailored to you.

Day 10: Lusaka to London
Following a morning activity and breakfast you will fly north by light aircraft to Lusaka Airport and connect with your flight back to the UK (via Addis Abba).

Day 11: London
Welcome Home (with endless adventures in Africa you can always go again!)

The latest word on the street about Zambia holidays:

Was one of the best experiences. Zambia was just what we needed. The people were wonderful. Very impressed with all  your recommendations. You managed to keep the whole family happy.

The Sturridge Family Zambia

Every part was wonderful, perfect in every way. We fell in love with Zambia – excellent hospitality, very friendly people, lovely personal service. An amazing holiday. We are desperate to go back.

Victoria Campbell Zambia

Thank you for an unforgettable honeymoon full of life, adventure, and lasting memories. The staff, activities, food, drink and atmosphere at all the lodges were brilliant.

Chris Hanson Zambia

We loved the safari in Zambia. Such brilliant, friendly guides. The diving at Thonga was another favourite because of the colours and variety of sea life. All in all, it was a great fun, exciting, informative and relaxing holiday.

Isaac Tilney Zambia & South Africa

We loved Zambia and Coral 15:41 Lodge – outstanding accommodation, food and service, remote locations and exclusivity. Better than the best of dreams, it was a trip to heaven.

Siobhan Joyce Zambia & Mozambique

The safari was simply breathtaking. What a superb varied range of experiences – each as good as each other in their own way. An amazing country. I would recommend it to anyone.

Jane Hadfield Zambia

Thanks so much for arranging everything it all went perfectly with no hitches. We loved both Royal Zambezi Lodge and Baia Sonambula, both made us feel very special and we were upgraded to a deluxe suite at the Royal Zambezi which was amazing! Would definitely recommend both. We had an absolutely fantastic time!

Alistair Lewis Zambia & Mozambique, September 2015

Flatdogs: Game sightings were very good, too, although we had just one brief lion sighting in 3 full days (4 nights). We got very good compensation in the form of several leopard sightings (6 leopards on the best night drive!), as well as other animals. The safari tents in Flatdogs were very good, too, and the Treehouse was gorgeous. Food was also very good and the staff very friendly. Guides were very knowledgeable and experienced.

Clare Hunter Zambia

Everything worked like clockwork, making life easy, excursions energetic and fun – the total experience has made me want to return to Zambia. We loved the lodges you chose … all very different from each other which made it fun.

Amanda Cowley Zambia

Excellent holiday in every respect. Absolutely stunning safari location – great views over river. Didn’t want for anything. Guide Chris was fantastic and fun to be around. Delicious food and staff even made us a happy honeymoon cake!
