Kakuli Bushcamp, Zambia


Kakuli is a seasonal bush camp on the confluence of the Luwi and Luangwa rivers. For many it marks the end of a walking safari from camp to camp following the course of the Luwi River. Whether Kakuli is used as a stopover in the middle of a walking trail or as a base for a more static wildlife safari, the game viewing and night drive safaris in this area are some of the best in Zambia.

Location

Kakuli Bushcamp is approximately 30 – 45 minutes flight from Lusaka to Mfuwe Airstrip. 1 – 2 hour drive from Kapani Lodge to Kakuli Bush Camp. To walk from Kakuli to Luwi or Nsolo Bush Camps it is about a 3 – 4 hour walk (this can be done by vehicle)
