Shumba Camp, Kafue National Park, Zambia

Recommended

SHUMBA CAMP IS OPEN FROM 1ST JUNE TO 30TH NOVEMBER INCLUSIVE

Shumba Camp is situated in the northern region of the Kafue National Park, in the famed Busanga Plains area. The Plains, covering approximately 750 square kilometres, is considered one of Zambia's most important wetlands as well as a wildlife paradise.  The camp is perfectly situated to see large numbers of plains game and their predators - including some of the best lion and cheetah viewing in Africa.

The Camp comprises six spacious luxury safari tents on raised platforms with breathtaking views of the surrounding plains. The tents are ensuite and include an indoor and outdoor shower.  The dining and bar area is situated under the shade of enormous fig trees, elevated to give splendid views of the plains. A large focus here is to involve guests in the safari way of life, so many of the meals are prepared and cooked in front of the guests.

Guests have the option of walking safaris in and around the Plains, or game drives, while night drives provide the added excitement of the nocturnal wonders of the area.  Great emphasis has been placed on the "guided" experience - being led by qualified, enthusiastic people with in-depth knowledge of the area and its wildlife.  For those interested in birding, Busanga Plains boasts some 390 species, including Wattled and Crowned Cranes, Fulleborn's and Rosy-throated Longclaws, Lanner Falcon and large flocks of Open-billed and Yellow-billed Storks.
