After the rainy season, Luangwa Valley is spectacular, the weather superb, the game as prolific as ever, and while the camps begin to re-open, May and June are traditionally quiet months - a great time to visit the Zambian bush before the crowds! Tailor-made natural history specialist Wildlife Worldwide offers a last minute discount of over 20% on a special 9-day Leopards of Luangwa safari, spending 8-nights in the Valley and 1-night at Pioneer Camp in Lusaka, for travel between 28th May and the 30th June 2008. Tours depart Heathrow once a week.
The holiday is based in Zambia’s South Luangwa National Park, the jewel of the country's national parks, comprising 9,050 square kilometres of unspoilt African wilderness. With accommodation at Kapani Lodge, once home of Zambia’s most famous conservationist, the late Norman Carr, and its satellite bush camps of Luwi, Nsolo and Kakuli, guests can explore a different habitat at each location. Experience the rich wildlife viewing opportunities of the broad banks of the Luangwa River, the edge of open grassland or mopane woodland close to a waterhole.
Enjoy expertly guided walking safaris – something for which the Luangwa is renowned, morning and afternoon game drives and night-time safaris with spotlights. Luangwa Valley offers a rich diversity of wildlife and in particular, is home to Africa’s highest naturally occuring Leopard population.
Of 60 other resident mammal species recorded, Lion, Elephant, Giraffe, Hippo and Cookson’s Wildebeest feature high on the list together with an exciting array of over 420 birds including some of southern Africa’s most colourful species. The final night is spent at Pioneer Camp in Lusaka, located in quiet bush and farmland, amongst 25-acres of wide open spaces and exquisite Miombo woodland, before homeward flights next day.
