WHAT TO EXPECT

South Luangwa

South Luangwa National Park is a special place to experience safari with high concentrations of animals and few other tourists in the area. There are endangered and unique animals like the African painted dog and also the animals everyone plans to see on safari like herds of elephants and towers of giraffes. The mighty Luangwa River brings the area to life and also provides the perfect habitat for pods of hippos and crocodiles.

South Luangwa is located in eastern Zambia and has over 60 species of mammals and 400 species of birds in the park. The animals are monitored and protected by Conservation South Luangwa and Zambian Carnivore Programme in partnership with Zambia’s Department of National Parks and Wildlife. All Dazzle safaris support the conservation and protection of this magnificent ecosystem.

  • Although your safari itinerary (listed above) will be similar for each day, you never know what each new game drive will bring you!

Day 7 – 9: Luangwa Safari House

  • Luangwa Safari House sits gracefully on the edge of a lagoon system frequented by large herds of elephants, impalas, giraffes and countless other species which use the lagoon as a source of water and food throughout the year. All of which is magnificently set off by the backdrop of the Chindeni Hills. The House has been designed to greet the senses from the minute you arrive, as you enter through the enormous pivoting door, light graces the entire front of the house and is open to the stunning wilderness views. The four double rooms are each subtly but differently decorated to imitate the elements – water, earth, wind and fire encompass the feeling of bringing nature into the house.
  • Although your safari itinerary (listed above) will be similar for each day, you never know what each new game drive will bring you!
