Capture the continent's wild spirit on a unique expedition to Africa, where leopards roam freely across the savannah and the African light creates ideal conditions for photography. This intimate trip to Africa is designed with lovers of nature, photography, and authentic experiences in mind. A photography safari in Zambia's South Luangwa National Park combines intensive wildlife observation, professional photography workshops, and a luxurious stay in the heart of one of Africa's wildest regions.
South Luangwa National Park, nicknamed "Leopard Valley," is considered one of the best places for a photography safari in Africa. The high concentration of leopards, lions, elephants, and wild dogs, along with the legendary golden light, make every day of this expedition an opportunity to capture exceptional shots. The small group (maximum 5 people) guarantees personalized attention and comfortable camera work for both beginners and advanced photographers.
The base of the expedition is the boutique lodge Chikunto Safaris, located directly within the national park, on the Luangwa River. Thanks to this location, participants can enjoy extended safaris without the constraints of park gates, away from the crowds, in the spirit of a "slow safari," where time, silence, and close contact with nature are the ultimate luxuries.
Arrive at Mfuwe Airport and transfer to Chikunto Safaris. After checking in, it's time for rest and the first organizational meeting. In the afternoon, enjoy an inaugural photography safari – the perfect introduction to this extraordinary trip to Africa. Dinner at the lodge, surrounded by the sounds of the bush.
