Kafue National Park for a Thrilling, Majestic Private Safari Tour

When you are in Zambia, then you have to take a thrilling and majestic safari tour of its oldest and largest National Park, Kafue.

Located in the western part of Zambia, just 2 hours from the town of Livingstone, it covers approximately 22,400 km squared and surprisingly is largely unexplored and remains one of the less known national parks in the country.

There is a very good possibility that this will not be the case in years to come, however, as the park is now being well managed and there is an increase in great and accommodating facilities for tourists who come here for private safari tours. Even the roads and airstrips are being created or improved.

The diversity of landscape has, in turn, created a diversity of wildlife and vegetation, so there are lots and lots to see on any of the many safari tours available here.
