About Kakuli Camp

  • Close Panel 

Kakuli Camp is a seasonal camp on the confluence of the Luwi and Luangwa rivers. There are four spacious tents under shady thatched roofs, each with an open-air bathroom. All of the tents overlook the river with stunning views up and down this hippo-packed stretch of river.

There is a lovely chitenge (lounge with a deck) overlooking the grazing lawn that leads down to the rivers. This area of the park is renowned for its great gameviewing and guests will usually split their time between walking and driving. Guided walking safaris were poineered in the Luangwa Valley and remain arguably the best way to view the wildlife, allowing guests an insight not only into the game but also into the whole natural envrironment. Game drives are offered just after sunrise and at sunset and use open vehicles to enable excellent viewing opportunities.

Pricing guidelines for Zambia

  • Open Panel 

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

International flights will add from about £600 to £800 depending on the season and route (unless airlines have special offers). Zambia combines well with Malawi and Botswana.

For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.
