Discover a lion’s-eye view of the African bush when you venture on this exciting walking-based Zambian safari.

Arrive at the seasonal Kakuli Bush Camp in its beautiful spot at the confluence of the Luwi and Luangwa Rivers and experience two days of game drives and nature walks in the magnificent natural park. On your third day, rise early and put on your comfortable walking shoes to trek on foot to the next camp, experiencing the wonders of walking in the amazing Zambian wilderness. Arrive at your new game lodge at Mchenja at the end of your safari – to your surprise and delight, you will find that your bags have already been delivered there for you.

After two nights of further impressive game experiences at Mchenja, continue by air to the Lower Zambezi National Park and the luxury of Chiawa Camp. Explore the Zambezi River, try angling for fighting game fish, or center yourself on a peaceful canoe safari.

Finally, it’s on to the mighty Victoria Falls with two nights at the award-winning Tongabezi Lodge located on the banks of the Zambezi River. Visit the “Smoke that Thunders” and retrace Dr. David Livingstone’s footsteps, exploring the falls area in luxury.

  • Reviewer: T. Tannant located in Osoyoos, BC Canada
    We recently returned from  taking the "South America Journey" trip arranged by Ker & Downey.  This  was our second trip with Ker & Downey, last year we enjoyed the thrilling "Classic Botswana Safari". South America has been on our list of "things to do", therefore with the excellent service provided by Ker & Downey last year, we decided to book the "South America Journey" which we  saw on  the Ker & Downey website.  Ker & Downey were again able to design a custom trip  which took us to Peru, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands.  From the moment we were met at the Jorge Chavez airport in Lima, Peru until we departed from the airport in Quito, Ecuador this journey was   nothing short of clockwork precision.  All our accommodation and tours were first class, excellent food and ALL our personal guides/drivers in Peru and Ecuador should be commended for their knowledge and professionalism and foremost their friendliness.  Both Peru and Ecuador are beautiful, beautiful countries as are their people.  The "Coral 1" and crew were no exception, they were terrific, as was the complete tour in the Galapagos Islands.We again would like to say a "BIG THANK YOU" to Ker & Downey, for putting together  this enjoyable and exciting " South America Journey " one we will remember for a life time. The itinerary and trip could not have been any better! Thanks again and hopefully we  will be able to book another exciting journey with Ker & Downey in the near future.
