East Africa

 

To reach our East African safari lodges and camps, we recommend that you fly into Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, Kenya; or Kilimanjaro International Airport, near Arusha, Tanzania; or Entebbe International Airport in Uganda. From any city, you can fly to the camps on private or scheduled flights. It is possible to drive to some of the camps, but we have indicated where it is not a recommended option and times vary with road conditions.

We have included a recommended itinerary for the Perfect African Sojourn. The order and duration of the lodge visits can be adjusted depending on the season you plan to visit. In order to get the best out of your trip, we recommend you contact a travel professional to advise you on the highlights at various times of the year.

Zambia Logistics

With Zambia being such a central destination, the capital, Lusaka is accessible from both London Heathrow and a number of International Airports on the African continent. Various options include; Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (Nairobi, Kenya), Dar es Salaam International Airport (Dar es Salaam, Tanzania), as well as O.R. Tambo International Airport (Johannesburg, South Africa). Livingstone, the home of the magnificent Victoria Falls, is also serviced by direct flights from O.R. Tambo International Airport.

Our lodges and camps are within easy reach of both Lusaka and Livingstone, where Zambia has a comprehensive network of charter and scheduled flights connecting all major tourist destinations. Due to the fact that our lodges are located in pristine and often remote locations, flying is the recommended mode of transport.
