Between the morning and afternoon safaris you will have some time at the lodge to enhance your Lightroom skill with the assistance of your Wild Eye guide, or soak in the magnificent surrounding you find yourself in. During the afternoon safaris you’ll follow up on interesting sightings from the morning safari, or explore the vast landscape and diversity that South Luangwa has to offer.Day 8
We'll head out for a safari early in the morning, after which we’ll proceed to Mfuwe Airport mid morning, for the return flight to Lusaka where the safari itinerary will end.
