Robin Pope Safaris
is famous for the finest private walking safaris and exclusive game
lodges in South Luangwa National park. The three intimate
camps offer a true luxury wilderness experience with stylish
accommodation, attentive service, fine dining and some of the best
private guides in Africa. Robin has lived in Zambia all his life and
is one of the best known guides in Africa. Robin and his team of guides specialise in walking safaris, photographic safaris, night drives
and private safaris for families.
Mfuwe Area - The all-weather Mfuwe area has an
extensive road system so we can vary the drives each day. Other
camps operate in the area, so will see some other vehicles on most
drives. However, the road network is comprehensive (especially
during the dry season when the more remote roads are open) and the
game accustomed to vehicles so the photography opportunities are
excellent.
Gameviewing- undoubtedly the best in Zambia.
Excellent leopard, lion and elephant. Thornicroft giraffe (unique to
the Luangwa) are seen daily (often near camp).
Nsefu and Tena Tena Luxury Camps
Nsefu Sector - is more remote. Seasonal
bush tracks. Robin Pope Safaris has the only 2 camps in this section
of the National Park (1000 sq km) so do not often see other
vehicles. The game is less accustomed to the vehicles as we only
operate there for 5 months of the year. The area has some
spectacular lagoons. Excellent walking.
Gameviewing - excellent leopard (but can be
sporadic) less lion than Mfuwe area. Great elephant, eland during
the dry months. Cookson's wildebeest near the salt pans. Game more
wild, particularly during the early months of the season.
MUPAMADZI RIVER: Walking Safaris
Area - the Mupamadzi River runs
from the escarpment through very remote and varied
country (hills with mopane, riverine strip and open
plains). On a walk can see three or four contrasting
habitats.
Gameviewing - game is wild and shy
but can be approached with care. Few elephant but most
other Luangwa riverine species. The game is not as
concentrated as along the Luangwa River area.
