KAKULI CAMP, SOUTH LUANGWA NATIONAL PARK

INTIMATE, SEASONAL SAFARI CAMP

Kakuli Camp provides an intimate stay in the game-rich South Luangwa, with picturesque views and a reputation for leopard sightings.

Stay at Kakuli and you will be entranced by the surrounding scenery. Sitting in an elevated position above the Luangwa River, the property enjoys panoramic views over a floodplain and all the wildlife who are drawn to it.

The camp offers an exclusive bush experience with just five thatched tents, traditional in style with good amenities. Furnishings are simple yet elegant, and with no Wi-Fi the focus is definitely on the wonderful nature and wildlife that surround you.

The camp has a prime location in South Luangwa, one of the country’s finest wildlife viewing areas. Game drives and bush walks with qualified guides will bring you memorable encounters with a variety of species, but the area is especially famed for its lion, leopard and elephants. It’s also one of the best places for viewing carmine bee-eaters, with a colony located close to camp – a delight for both birders and photographers.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”

We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91�� – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”

Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91�� gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “91��”!

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”

From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
