Kaingu Safari lodge is located just outside of the main boundaries of the Kafue National Park within the Namwala Game Management Area - an exclusive concession. The Lodge is on high ground and is therefore accessible and open throughout the year. The private airstrip is closed during the rains during which time you reach the lodge by road.
Four Meru-tents on wooden decks and one family house overlook the river, along with a main bar and dining room. There are also two camp-sites that caters for self-drive groups.
There are a range of activities here from game drives to sundowners, river cruises, and bush walks. Keen fisherman are also well-catered for as are bird watchers.
4 tents and 1 family house

Kafue is Zambia's oldest park and, at 22,400 square kilometres, it's one of the larger national park in Africa. The park is supplied by 3 rivers, namely the Kafue, Lunga and the Lufupa and the Busanga Swamp is one of Zambia's most prominent wetland resources. The surrounding Busanga Plains are partially flooded during the rains but are left rich and lush when the water recedes from around May, attracting great numbers of herbivores. Along with many other species, this area is home to thousands of red lechwe which in turn attract the many lion, leopard and even cheetah to the area. Read more?
