Kukummi Safaris offers great bush experiences at stunning and  remote locations in the South Luangwa National Park, Zambia’s premier park. The Luangwa Valley is vast, remote, home to both people and a truly impressive number of animals. The South Luangwa Park is 9050 square km with the river, its tributaries and the riverine strips being the focus of the wildlife viewing.

The South Luangwa is known as the home of the walking safaris, with small bush camps or mobile tented camps for those who would like to experience a dedicated trail. Walking through the bush is a completely different experience to driving. All your senses are alert. Every sound, every movement – the flap of a bird’s wing, a tail swishing through the tall grass – acquires significance.

The abundance of leopards in the Luangwa is famous and although not guaranteed it is usual for everyone coming through on a three or more night safari to see at least one leopard. The Luangwa has two endemic species – the Thornicoft giraffe which is found mostly in the central area of the park and the Cookson’s wildebeest which is more scattered and only in the north. Usually it is great number of game that impresses people.
