 KAPANI

 

The late  legendary Norman Carr started the original safari company in South Luangwa in 1950. His company continues to this day, run by his family and an excellent team of Zambian staff and safari guides. 
Kapani is Norman Carr Safaris flagship camp. In additional, there are four individually designed bush camps set deep in the national park - Nsolo, Luwi, Kakuli and Mchenja. Here guests can enjoy a true safari experience in small remote camps. Guests can choose to journey from one bushcamp to the next or they can enjoy a combination of the good food and relaxation of Kapani with a stay at a bush camp to get an all round Luangwa experience.

The wildlife in the area around Kapani is excellent with all the major species to be found with the park. If you haven't seen a leopard in the wild then a safari in South Luangwa would almost definately be the place to rectify this.
Kapani offers game activities twice a day that include game drives and safari walks with highly experienced and trained guides, that are accompanied by an armed game scout.

If your mission is to relax and miss some of the game activities, then the swimming pool at Kapani is a great place to unwind.
