Very helpful staff who were all part of a great team.
We had an inundation of hatching cicadas in the evening but the staff were excellent in trying the resolve the situation.
The food was well prepared, tasty and memorable. Excellent cook.
Another fun surprise brunch!" See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

"Chisa Busanga Camp review"
The Chisa crew was very friendly, and our trip included some nice bush surprises but no spoiler here. Got hot water bags for both bed and the morning game drive and believe me with 6 degrees one morning this was very helpful.
The plains are beautiful, with large number of Pukus and Lechwes.
Hoped initially to see cheetahs which we were not able to find. Try again another time." See all these reviews: 13n in Zambia

"Chisa Busanga Camp review"
Great small camp with the famous birds nest rooms which have great views but are quite small. Hosted by Pasha aided by Emanuel , Isaac , Newton was my guide.
The Busanga wetlands are fabulous similar in some respects to the Okavango. Newton my guide very experienced was excellent.
The main wildlife feature here are the enormous herds of Lechwe and Puku around the channels.This ensures that there are large groups of Predators Lions and Leopards. We spotted male and female leopards on a night drive and Porcupines.
Some great viewing of two female lions with their cubs.
Magnificent Sable antelope.
Lots of hippos in the channels. Most channels are too deep to traverse and no bridge's in place to cross." See all these reviews: 12n in Zambia
