Chisa Busanga Camp Tours
Rates/Bookings

Chisa Busanga Camp, a beautiful bush camp by Green Safaris offers the best location in Kafue right in the heart of the Busanga Plains. Each of the 4 rooms is raised designed to look like a bird’s nest which for the child within that dreamed of a treehouse let this dream become the ultimate luxurious reality! A bird’s eye view over the plains, the rooms are cosy, comfortable and have en-suite bathrooms with inside and outside showers!

Rooms

Inspired by the stunning surroundings the rooms are all built like a nest up in the tree canopy! With thatched walls you can snuggle up in your very own birdhouse with views across the plains! The design makes you feel like Tarzan of the jungle or as if you are in a raised hide, allowing for prime wildlife viewing. Of course this is a bucket list experience for birders! We love the unusual concept, making the wilderness feel even more wild!

Location

The Kafue National Park is vastly unknown which given its size and numerous inhabitants seems crazy! That being said there are only a few lodges in prime spots which makes it the perfect place to have an off the beaten track adventure and see some incredible wildlife all to yourself! The Busanga Plains are a vast open network of floodplains which can give some incredible sunset shots with the animal silhouettes black against the fiery sunset colours or emerging from misty winter mornings from the boat! The birdlife is out of this world and those looking for unusual species should flock here!

Eco Friendly

Just like their other properties the game drive vehicles here are electric and solar powered. The magic of a silent drive as you creep up on unaware herds of antelope just as a leopard would, watching animal interactions almost invisible to the surrounding game! Not only does this enhance your experience, not startling any birds as you move closer to a sighting, but also it reduces your carbon footprint. If being on safari teaches you anything it’s the magic of seeing animals in their natural habitat and the importance of conserving them and the environment they live in.

  • One Word: AMAZING!!!

    “We had heard a lot about the Busanga plains, the so-called Serengeti of southern Africa. But even these reviews didn’t do justice to the place. There wasn’t an extremely high density of wildlife (although we still saw a LOT, including lions!), but it was the vastness and beauty of the plains that was the most stunning. And especially from the view that those unique nests provide of the Chisa Busanga Camp. Because the rooms, they were literally in a birds nest! Tat, plus the intimate setting of the main area, made it an amazing and unique experience.”

    “Chisa Busanga is the most immersive nature experience I have ever had. The bird’s nests are a work of art, which seamlessly blend in with the stunning landscape. Sunrise on the plains is a sight I will never forget. Apart from the estate itself, the staff is impeccable. The hosts and hostesses are ever helpful and the food is absolutely stunning, even more so considering the challenge that the remoteness adds. The guides are both extremely knowledgeable and charismatic, which, in combination with the scenery and the electric vehicles, makes for the perfect game drive experience”
