Map of South Luangwa National Park, Zambia
South Luangwa National Park is one of the easier parks to get to if you consider a 6 hour bus ride followed by another 6 hour bus ride over extremely rough roads to be easy. South Luangwa is one of the places where you are able to do a walking safari, which is much more fun than the car safari.
