South Luangwa National Park OPERATORS – NORMAN CARR SAFARIS
Norman Carr is a conservation legend in the Luangwa Valley.
He pioneered walking safaris in the Zambian bush in the 1950s and is widely regarded as the father of walking safaris.
He spent over 50 years devoting himself to the development of the South Luangwa National Park.
He built Kapani Lodge in 1986 and lived there until his death in 1996.
Norman Carr Safaris operates a permanent lodge and four bush camps situated in remote areas of the National Park. They are only open during the dry season and no visit to the Luangwa at this time of year is complete without staying at one or other of these camps.
For the more adventurous the camps can be combined, walking out of one camp early in the morning and arriving at the next for brunch to find your bags already waiting for you. Walking safaris from camp are not strenuous and are conducted at a pace determined by our guests but usually last 3 to 4 hours. They are led by a fully qualified guide and armed game scout.
