Kafue National Park is the largest and oldest national park in Zambia. Kafue gained national park status in 1950 and covers a total of 22400 square kilometers. Despite the Kafue’s proximity to both Lusaka and the Copperbelt, it has remained underdeveloped until the most recent years. Despite the depravations of poaching and lack of management, Kafue National Park is still a raw and diverse slice of African wilderness with excellent game viewing, birdwatching and fishing opportunities.

From the astounding Busanga Plains in the North-western of Kafue National Park to the tree-choked wilderness and the lush dambos of the south, fed by the emerald green Lunga, Lufupa and Kafue River, the park sustains huge herds of a great diversity of wildlife. From the thousands of red lechwe on the plains, the ubiquitous puku, the stately sable and roan antelopes in the woodland to the diminutive oribi and duiker. The solid-rumped defassa waterbuck, herds of tsessebe, hartebeest, zebra and buffalo make for a full menu of antelope. Large prides of lion, solitary leopards and cheetahs are the prime predators. There is a host of smaller carnivores from the side-striped jackal, civet, genet and mongoose.

Zambia safaris offer Africa's authentic yesteryear safari camps and lodges for those wanting to see wildlife away from the crowds. With 4-6 rooms on average, Zambia has maintained an authentic African safari experience where a native Zambian actually participates and benefits from trickle down tourism. Having few numbers of visitors has an inverse relationship to the quality of experience: the fewer the number of vehicles and tourists, the more preserved the environment, and subsequently a better the wilderness and wildlife experience in Africa. On Zambia Travel: Planning Zambia vacations, after seeing the whole Africa safari experience in Kenya and Tanzania's safari park and reserves, truly means you have graduated to the next best level of African safaris. By then it will not be about the glitz and glamor of your Africa safari lodge, safari camp, hotel, but how authentic you want the experience to be. I hope this is beneficial in planning a Zambia holiday. Thank you for supporting Africa and its potential. In Zambia You can experience the finest wildlife, Zambia's famous walking safari, low environmental impact safaris, varied Zambian cultures with over 74 tribes.
