Getting There

Car

If you are driving to Ntemwa-Busanga Camp, start by heading towards the Kafue National Park. From Lusaka, take the Great East Road (A3) towards the town of Chisamba, then continue on the A3 through the towns of Mkushi and Kapiri Mposhi. After Kapiri Mposhi, follow the signs to the Kafue National Park. Once you reach the park entrance, pay the entry fee (approximately $20 per person) and follow the park road towards Busanga Plains. The camp is located within the Busanga Plains, so be prepared for some challenging driving on dirt roads. It's advisable to have a 4x4 vehicle for this part of the journey.
Public Transportation

For those traveling by public transportation, take a bus from Lusaka to the nearest town, either Mumbwa or Kafue. From Mumbwa, you can hire a taxi or arrange for a local guide to take you to the park entrance. Make sure to confirm the cost beforehand, which could be around $30 to $50 depending on the distance. After entering the park, you can either hire a safari vehicle for a guided tour to the camp or find a local lodge that provides transportation to the Ntemwa-Busanga Camp. Be aware that public transportation schedules can be irregular, so plan accordingly.
Safari Vehicle Transfer

If you prefer a hassle-free journey, consider booking a safari package that includes transfers to Ntemwa-Busanga Camp. Many tour operators in Zambia offer packages that include transportation from Lusaka directly to the camp. This option generally costs between $300 to $500 per person, depending on the level of service and the duration of your stay. This option is ideal for tourists who wish to enjoy the scenic views without the stress of navigating the roads themselves.
