Description
Ntemwa Busanga Camp
Kafue National Park
Ntemwa Busanga Camp is situate in the very far North of Kafue National Park in an area called the Busanga Plains. The area is infamous as being remote and incredibly game rich with frequent sightings of all the cat species. The plains are ideal for Cheetah while the plains edges and dense bush are perfect hunting grounds for Lion and Leopard.
The main boma area for Ntemwa Busanga overlooks the vast and shimmering Busanga Plains. Wildebeest, Zebra, Puku and Buffalo are just some of the myriad wildlife that can be seen from the comfort of the deck. Lion prides are often seen resting on the plains during the day, watched carefully by the other animals and making for some fascinating interactions.
Morning and afternoon game drives are the main activities at the camp with night drives being a special and necessary adventure.
While the camp accommodations are somewhat rustic the experience more than makes up for this. Meru tents set amongst the trees all have flushing toilets. Beds are very comfortable and the en suite bathrooms are very adequate.
Boating and walking safaris are possible and birding in the area is excellent. As the camp overlooks the floodplain with dense riverine vegetation close at hand the variety of bird life is astounding. Guides are very professional and their knowledge of fauna and flora is excellent.
