Kafue National Park in Zambia is undoubtedly one of the best. This vast wilderness offers a true escape and is a highlight for travelers seeking Kafue safari holidays rich in wildlife and untouched nature. Experience traditional wildlife safaris and game drives as you plunge further into the Busanga Plains, where you will see elephants, puku, impala, warthog, hartebeest, and zebra. With such a menu to choose from, you'll also spot the area's main predators, including leopards, cheetahs, and prides of lions. This area is a favorite in many Kafue safari packages, especially during the dry season. Activities cover water, land, and even air — game drives in open air vehicles during both the day and night; excursions on the rivers and deltas to see the hippos & crocodiles and the animals who brave these waters for a drink; and some safari camps even offer hot air balloon rides for a different perspective. For those wondering about the best time to visit Kafue National Park, the dry months between June and October offer the clearest wildlife sightings and excellent weather for all activities.
