A Day in the Wild
The Perfect Introduction
3-Night Escape
Afternoon: The dust settles as you arrive at Chunga by charter flight or a slow road transfer from Lusaka. An open safari vehicle carries you to camp, the air warm and scented with bushveld.
Late Afternoon: Glide onto the Kafue River for a welcome sundowner as the light turns gold — hippo grunt nearby, a kingfisher flashes past, and the water glows with the day's last colour.
Evening: Dinner is served beneath a canopy of stars, the campfire crackling, the night alive with distant calls. A warm meal, good company, and the sense that the wild is all around.

Late Afternoon: A sunset boat cruise — elephant drinking at the banks, hippo pods surfacing in the dusk, the water gone to copper and rose.
Evening: A welcome dinner with your guide, stories of the bush passed around the table as night settles over the camp.

Tauka is pure magic. Waking up to the sound of hippos in the river, game drives where we spotted lion, elephant and wild dogs. The staff made us feel like family.
