Overview
The lodge is idyllically situated on the east bank of the Kafue River in Kafue National Park. This is still part of untamed Africa and has the greatest species diversity in Zambia. The lodge is about a 4 hour drive from Lusaka or you can fly in to our own airstrip. The lodge is accessible all year.
Hippo Lodge is a unique owner-run safari camp managed by Bruce Whitfield, one of the most knowledgeable people on the Kafue's wildlife. He and his team will make your stay unforgettable. As you will be part of a group of no more than 16 people you will be able to benefit from your host's personal attention and knowledge of the region.
On your safari holiday you will be able to chose what you want to do, for example:
# Morning or evening game drives
# Walking safaris with armed guard
# Birding from over 240 species
# Fishing in the river for bream
# Game watching from the river

NOTE: If a search was made without stipulating the month of occupation the rate shown on the search results page is for the lowest cost month and the least expensive room. Where pricing is “per unit” the Average Price Per Person based on maximum occupancy is used for the price range comparison. A search made for Homes and Villas however will always be based on the full daily rate of the unit irrespective of the number of people the unit sleeps.
Rates are deemed correct at time of publication and may fluctuate depending on supply and demand. Establishments maintain their rates online and any differences should be referred to the Establishment’s staff. Quotations once accepted are binding.
