I am thrilled to share a report that Michael Thornton has written about his time in the Luangwa with me in June 2019. There is also a selection of his images which brilliantly illustrate the story and the experience! It's clear from his words that [...]
The Emerald Season in South Luangwa is a very special time of year; few people know about it as it falls outside the "recommended" travelling times for the area. But most permanent residents -- and anyone who has sampled this 'rains' period -- will tell [...]
The sightings at this time of the year, alongside the wonderful light, make for wonderful photo opportunities! John Erik was a skilled photographer before arrival but it was really gratifying to see him reacting, composing, tweaking and critiquing more quickly and more naturally by the [...]

The chance of a 2-week safari in the middle of September (a great time in South Luangwa) excited me from the time when we started planning the trip. More than a year later, the guests arrived at Kafunta River Lodge for the first part of [...]
