The Busanga Bushcamp accommodates up to eight guests in four pole-and-thatch chalets.

The camp is on a small island, under giant sycamore figs, date palms and sausage trees.

The comfortable rooms are simply decorated using natural materials...

Soap, shampoo and cotton dressing gowns are also provided.

Each chalet has a private veranda with a wonderful view over the surrounding plains…

… where you can relax and enjoy the nature.

… and small reference library with games.

There is also a drink station where tea and coffee are always available.

Further back is the dining boma where brunch is usually taken after the morning activity.

Lunch is usually a buffet, as is breakfast although dinner is served to your table.

In front of camp is the campfire, where guests often gather together before dinner.

Day-and-night drives are done in open 4WD vehicles, and are the main activity here.

The Busanga Plains are home to a variety of interesting birds and animals.

You may see a cheetah bathing in the sun - a rare opportunity in Zambia…

… or impressive crowned cranes walking across the plains.

Though the area around Busanga Bushcamp is particularly well known for lion sightings.
