"Mukambi Safari Lodge review"
There are some maintenance issues that perhaps have fallen off radar with covid eg broken radiator in game drive vehicle, fumigation of ants from room, etc. I am more concerned about the former than the latter, because I keep seeing the transfer driver adding water to under the bonnet and it is a 5+ hours drive from central Kafue to Busanga Plains.
Other than that, the lodge is fine. Lots of bush bucks around and I was told a cheetah has been roaming nearby too. Food is very good at this lodge - on par with other 5 star camps I stayed at.
I am still glad I stayed outside of park in a GMA like where Mukambi Lodge is, instead of inside the park where tsetse flies are prevalent.
There are some guiding issues but the problems are more pronounced while I was at Busanga Plains (see previous). Any drop in rating is due to this." See all these reviews: 16n in Zambia
