My beautiful and peaceful country, watching from south Africa
I JUST LOVED THE ESCORT WITH THE LIONS, GAVE ME TEARS TO MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That was an awesome experience indeed
Zambia is the most underrated tourist destination country in Africa. So Beautiful!
WOW!!!!!! The Lion escort bought tears to my eyes, absolutely beautiful, and the fact that the drivers gave and demanded respect for the lions was AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!
Nice Video.I have been to all Norman Carr Bush Camps in 2012 & 2016. South Luangwa is my favourite Park in Africa. I was there several times in different Bush Camp and Lodges. My favourite of the 4 Norman Carr Bush Camps is Luwi Bush Camp. In 2022 I discovered for me 2 new Park in Zambia: Lower Zambesi and Kafue Nationalparks.
I am moved to tears seeing these magnificent beasts ❤❤❤xxxx although years ago lions are truly the king of the beasts xxxxxx treat them with respect be thankful u r not a wildebeest lol God Bless all His creatures
Wow. The music, the videography, the explanations. I'm totally captivated.
My beautiful mother Land!!!This is an amazing content....I love it so much
I love how you detail the trip from beginning to end. Not just the "pretty" parts. Thank you!
Simply wonderful. This is Africa at it's best Your video brings me the taste and the smell of Africa. The silence and the wonderful chorus songs. Like "Out of Africa"
This camp has gone to the top of my ever growing list.
Yes,reminds me of the Luangwa safari starts at the beginning.Stayed there at Kakuli in Oct 2000,..walk from Luwi ,fine sunrises by the Luangwa and wildlife encounters ..wonderful🐘
Another great video that took me back to the time I experienced safari in Kenya, in 1988. It was a profound experience feeling the natural earth and the wild life. Since then I’ve never been able to go to a zoo. Animals in their natural environment are so robust and healthy. I wish to experience Zambia now. Thank you. I never miss your videos. 🥰
Yes ... agree ... I am from Kenya, can’t visit a Zoo.
Watch on DR.DAVID LIVINGSTONE, MISSIONARY TO AFRICA 🌍,,,👉ZIKHOMO 🇿🇲
Thank you for sharing this marvelous adventure. I had tears in my eyes when the lion pride was escorting your vehicle to the hotel! How special was that!
That was an amazing experience indeed
Dont they come inside the hotel?
I think the pride of lions was officially part of the staff. Amazing!
Every time i watch one of your videos, i always have to add the place to my bucket list. But this place tops them all, it just looks incredible!
Wow! What the pride of lions did when you were going to the lodge was amazing!
Everything seemed so relaxed and casual, yet elegant. It seemed somewhat surreal. Your royal escorts were beautiful. Regards from Southern California.
Well done! Slowing the panning down captured the serenity of the camp. An exceptional experience!
This honestly looked like the best African Safari ever. Genuinely back to nature! So many animals close by! Crazy... the lodge was rustic but that adds to the genuinely luxury of being in such a place. Now I know where to go.
You know it's going to be a good hotel video, when it starts with a small regional flight :D
Fabulous reserve ,atmosphere and camp
Luangwa is a special place...Hope to return one day....walk,night drives,experience the environment and excellent camps
My mother was born in Livingstone in Zambia.. I was born in Rhodesia now called Zimbabwe.. these two countries have the finest lodges in Southern Africa . And the nicest people among the locals . I laughed at the lady who said the zebras are a bit twitchy 😂😂.. so they should as they are about to experience a lion jumping on its back 😂😂. Great videos thanks so much for your efforts. Love these ! 👌🏻🙏🏻👏👏👏

Absolutely fascinating experience.
You have put the viewer smack dab in the lodge and in the middle of nature.
Thank you
The blend of gentle-paced video and the background music is mesmerizing.
Lovely place to relax.
Best wishes from Mumbai.

Thank you :)
@@sanjay2233 You are more than welcome!
My Zambia....🙌
Thank you for the well done video.
So amazing to be able to watch directly wild animals that you can only watch from the TV or books
WE in ZAMBIA 🇿🇲 have soo much to welcome tourists, in Zambia 🇿🇲 our MOSI-OA-TUNYA, in LIVINGSTONE, GAME 🎮 PARKS, in KAZUNGULA BRIDGE 🌉,,many LODGES, beautifully designed, decorated, near the ZAMBEZI riversides,gave MUKUNI VILLAGE, GORGES, BATOKA GORGES, IN ZAMBIA 🇿🇲 CHABWINO, ZIKHOMO
Thank you for sharing with us your breathtaking and beautiful experiences. I favour your humble and intense approach to nature and design. The stunning meeting with the lions escorting you to your stay made my tears run.
23:47 Great video! I see that they serve the local dish 'nshima' a sort of porridge made out of corn. Very soon I'm hoping to edit and upload my old safari vides from 1994-2000. South Luangwa is the place to see Lions.
Stunning and spectacular!! Thank you for sharing this amazing experience, which for me feels quite comfortable from behind the camera😜.
I've said it before and I'm saying it again at the risk of being overly repetitive. I envy you these up close experiences with the animals so much more than the luxurious lodgings or modes of travel!! Thanks for sharing.
I got goosebumps since those lions block the road. Omg, i do realy want to visit this place. It's just like a dream for the tropical islands nation inhabitant like me
Wow what an experience
The thing I like about your videos is the variety of resorts that you stay in. Not only do you travel to different continents, but the reports vary from 5* ultra modern hotels to more rustic lodges like this one. I fly out to Dubai myself on Wednesday and won't be back until just before Xmas, but I look forward to catching up on your travels when I return. Keep up the excellent reviews.
Thank you for your kind comment
you're living the dream... omg!
Great video, was some of the food part of the Zambian cuisine? I am from the DRC next door to Zambia, we have also a lot of good spot to visit especially in the eastern part of the country. It's still unstable now, but I pray for peace to return so we can share the many natural parks with world as we did before years ago.
Beautiful lodge
Thank you for sharing your experience
The background music is amazing
I hope you enjoyed your stay 👍👏
S M I enjoyed my stay a lot
the Luxury Travel Expert thank you for your reply
I’m glad your stay was enjoyable
Hermoso y sublime, debe de ser maravilloso el encuentro con estas hermosas especies, menos peligrosas que el mismo hombre,j un deleite ver este video y todos los que suben son los mejores y ya me hicieron llorarde emoción, por que ;quien sabe? esto me sensibiliza demasiado amo la naturaleza, y esto es todo al 100%.gracias The Luxury for yours greates videos!
Loved it the Luxury Travel Expert. Mellow and laid back atmosphere within the camp and inside the vehicle. But what's more important of course are the beautiful, magnificent animals that visit the camp and nearby natural areas. Jaw-dropping to me. I cannot afford the safari but so what; keep the video adventures coming.
Thx for your kind message
So touched by the music background
I want to go here!!!🐘💝🐘💝🙏🏼❤🙏🏼
It sure was a big herd of Cape Buffalos.
Would Definitely Like To Visit Very Soon. Iam From Gujarat India. Often Visit Gir - Asiatic Lion Abode. Iam A Wildlife Crazy, So Loved The Wonderful Clip. Thanks.
Are you planning to visit French Polynesia anytime soon? :) Would be amazing if you filmed Four Seasons Bora Bora :)
From the 12 Apostles to Zambia, thank you for sharing the beauty and diversity of Africa with us. The journey never ceases to amaze.
Just one question though.....no Boodles for the evening sundowner? Hmmm.
Lovely Sunset on the Luangwa,a night drive,would love to hear the Scops owl call,and encounter leopard ,porcupine,hear the hyena
Love ❤️ your videos !!!
I lived in Mufulira, Zambia all my youth til I was 18, never went on safari, never went to the falls, what a tragedy. I’ve now got my own family and will be visiting these places at last.
AMAZING BGM. AWESOME VIDEO
Beautiful video 👍
Thx 🙏
I watched all your videos. Very much spectacular. I feel that I am in the resort. But I have doubt how to trust such places from predators? There’s no proper boundaries. I mean walls and gates.
I think he said the “lions left for the day”. Ok, let’s open the mosquito nets and sit outside all day. I was nervous just thinking about the possibility of wildlife coming into the tent.
WOW 😍
*breath taking epic*
Fantastic
And that's why you're called Africa:the Motherland
Wow 👍
Very nice video 👍🏻👍🏻👋🏻👋🏻
This is one of the most simplest hotel in the world, the difference is, it's located in Africa and that makes a HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE difference.... I don't care to pay 10K by night, because this hotel worth millions!!!! I'm just in love 😍❤ all hotels in the world may learn from Africans hotels
Great video, Great adventure.. hope i can go there someday
can you please label dishes you eat at dinners and lunches in the resorts/hotels/camps/flights for example here 23:40
Nice
as much as this seems like one of a kind adventure I am trying to wrap my mind around what to do if one of the wildlife is on the walking path?
Fantastic video. Which camera was this filmed on?
Canon G7X Mark II
the Luxury Travel Expert that’s very impressive. I for sure though this was shot on a bigger camera. Seriously awesome what you achieved 👍🏼
You needed to try a place called Rhino Sands ! You can find them on insta aswell or their website.
Could you share what you paid for this resort stay?
The tent is too wide open and close to river and water hole. Hope it's well protected against unwanted predators!
😍😍😍
that welcome is everything🐈
Holy cow!!!! This place is US$1600 per night for two! And it's a "basic" camp??? Clearly for the 1%. Flatdogs Camp nearby seems to be nice too at 1/8 the price. Anybody know about that place?
Why is it called a "tented suite" if it has a permanent thatched roof?
It looks very comfortable but I see the fan so I'm assuming no a/c?
Sorry for asking, but I’ll assume no air-conditioning and this room is definitely not screened in. What about safety issues like mosquitoes, etc.? I presume one has to take Malarone and other precautions against malaria, etc.? Just wanna be safe!
Yes, you have to take anti-malaria prophylaxis ... The room is sealed off at night :-)
Wouldn't wildlife preserve be more appropriate than "game preserve"?
Unless it really is a game preserve for hunting.
Game preserve reminds me to much of trophy hunting and animal slaughter which is obviously not the purpose of this resort, now..
The resort is lovely in it's simplicity and the diversity of animals .
Cheers,
Rik Spector
very beautiful, Can you swim?
Great camp to watch the wildlife coming to the Luangwa ,hippos,elephant antelope and to do bushwalks or walk to Luwi,Nsolo...On my walk from Nsolo to Kakuli we encountered wild dog and watched them hunt and kill.

Please: can you tell us the price???
AMANZING 👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
One side of Africa people fight war lawlessness other side they are well educated and have good tourism and other business... Two sides of a continent
i dont think i wd feel safe in a land of big strong animals with my hotel bdrm walls of straw...
Music?
I need to visit Africa again
Are there not crocodiles in the river there?
Yes there are many crocodiles in the river
the Luxury Travel Expert Then how is staying there at all safe ?!!!!
I have a lot of questions
Indeed a very a spectacular welcome! Yay my country 🇿🇲🇿🇲
Those lions were incredible indeed
Isn't it a bit risky to be driving in an open vehicle with lions about? Especially at night?
No. Lions don't approach or chase after vehicles because they don't see them as prey. If they are habituated to cars, they might come closer when the vehicle is stationary but even then they won't touch it. In South Luangwa animals aren't really habituated to vehicles though and are most likely to run off. Your real concern is to be able to view them before they run off.
.
The issue is around camps potentially, as rubbish bins are particular food supply. Kakuli also has its own watering hole which attracts lions in the dry season. Source: I used to work there.
@@monikakovacs7658 Thanks for that info! :)
Monika Kovacs so how are visitors protected from lions? Those walls don’t look too solid.
Wow what a spectacular welcome you had! Amazing footage on your safari what a once in a lifetime experience. Amazing vlog as always. Safe travels. x
Dear sir thank u for videos please share this music sir
So impressive! Beautiful hon. Once again 💜💜
