• Strong focus on walking safaris, but also offers 4x4 night drives
• Longer open season
Kapamba camp is the furthest south of all the camps of The Bushcamp Company and the most luxurious. The Bushcamp Company operates six bush camps all varying in character and location so ideally you can combine two or three of them. Spacious en suite chalets at Kapamba, complete with baths, have open views from the chalet over the Kapamba river which is a tributary of the Luangwa River. This camp offers both walking safaris and night drives by game vehicle. Transfers from Mfuwe Airport are done in the form of a long game drive en route to the lodge. Please note that this is a very long transfer given the seclusion of the lodge.
Given its location on a sandy floodplain, Kapamba is also the only camp (along with Bilimungwe just to the north of it), which is open in November, December and May, as the area doesn't get as water-logged as the rest of the valley. During these months you access the camp through a southern gate, rather than via the Mfuwe Bridge, and activities are even more firmly centred around walking safaris (as game drives really aren’t possible during this time).
