Each year up to ten million straw-coloured fruit bats descend upon Kasanka National Park, forming one of the most spectacular, yet largely unknown, wildlife spectacles and attracting wildlife thrill-seekers from around the world. This safari puts you in the right place at the right time to witness this magnificent migration, thought to be the largest mammal migration in the natural world. The bats at Kasanka have received international acclaim over recent years, featuring in David Attenborough’s BBC ‘Life’ series, CNN’S ‘must-see’ list and Mark Carwardine’s latest book ‘Ultimate Wildlife Experiences’.

What makes this trip extraordinary

Visit South Luangwa; home to 20-35,000 elephants, and a huge population of leopard.
