Continue on A1 until you see signs for Nyambwezu Falls. The falls are located approximately 15 kilometers off the main road. Follow local signs leading to the falls. Note that the road may be unpaved, so a high-clearance vehicle is recommended. There may be a small entrance fee to access the falls, usually around ZMW 20 per person.

Inform the driver that you wish to get off at the Nyambwezu area. From there, you might need to hire a local taxi or walk to the falls, which are about 5 kilometers from the main road. Be prepared for a short hike if you choose to walk. The total cost for the bus ride should be around ZMW 100 - ZMW 150, and local transport from the drop-off point to the falls may cost an additional ZMW 50 - ZMW 100.
