Local know-how to help you travel smarter and make the most of every moment.
Car
If you are traveling by car, start by heading towards Livingstone or Lusaka, depending on your starting point in the Zambezi Basin. From Livingstone, take the M10 road heading north. Continue for about 120 km until you reach the junction with the A8 road. Turn left onto the A8 and continue for approximately 40 km until you see a sign for Baines River Camp. Follow the signs to the camp, which is located along the banks of the Zambezi River. Make sure your vehicle is suitable for dirt roads, as the last stretch may involve unpaved paths.
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a bus from Livingstone or Lusaka to the nearest town, which is Kazungula. Buses run regularly, but it's advisable to check the schedule in advance. Once in Kazungula, you can hire a taxi or arrange for a local shuttle service to Baines River Camp. Be prepared to negotiate the fare; it typically costs between 200 to 400 Zambian Kwacha depending on the distance and the driver. Ensure that the driver knows the camp's location, as it is essential for getting you there safely.
Taxi
If you are already in the vicinity of Baines River Camp, you can hire a taxi directly to take you there. Make sure to confirm the price before starting the journey; fares can range from 100 to 300 Zambian Kwacha depending on your starting location. It's best to use registered taxi services for safety and reliability.
