Tafika Camp in the South Luangwa National Park is our base camp, nestled in the shade of giant leadwood trees. We accommodate 10 guests in 5 spacious chalets. This is the home of John and Carol Coppinger, giving the camp a relaxed family atmosphere. Situated just outside the Nsefu Sector of the South Park, Tafika is able to offer microlighting as an optional extra to the excellent drives and walks of the routine day. Our staff is mostly from Mkasanga Village nearby and welcome visits from guests fascinated by their unmaterialistic way of life in this warm heart of Africa.
The Green Season at Tafika affords guests the opportunity of river safaris with boating, canoeing, exceptional bird watching and breath taking scenes of the Luangwa in full flood - an awesome blend of rich greens, lagoons filled with hippo and flooded channels overhung with groves of ebony trees.
