The game-viewing potential at Mfuwe Lodge and the surrounding area is second-to-none. Walking safaris can be arranged on request, but the majority of outings are game drives, allowing you to explore as much of this fascination region of the Luangwa Valley as possible.
Drives are led by experienced guides, setting out at first light, and then again in the late afternoon when the wildlife is at its most active. After sun downers, spotlights are used to pick out a new cast of nocturnally active creatures.
You can also enjoy some excellent bird watching; cultural visits to the local school and village as well as a textiles/handicraft market.
Families with children are welcome, however, for safety reasons, only children over 12 are allowed to do walking safaris
