Traveling to the Hunting Concession

Hunters need to travel to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka, Zambia. After arriving in Lusaka, they can choose how they wish to travel to the Kafue hunting grounds, with either a road transfer or a charter flight.

Hunters can either drive for 6-7 hours to camp for US$1,500 return or charter a flight for US$5,500 return. The flying time is 90 minutes.

Tips when Leopard Hunting

Here are some tips to help ensure a successful Leopard hunting safari:

• Do your research and be prepared. Learn up about Leopard behavior, hunting methods, and local rules and regulations about Leopard hunting in Zambia
• Hunting Leopards in Africa requires a minimum caliber of .375 with a 300-grain bullet. An expanding bullet tip is recommended. The rifle should be fitted with an excellent-quality tactical scope when hunting this exceptionally dangerous species
• As a follow-on to rifle requirements, a reminder that accurate shot placement is critical. A wounded Leopard is one of the most dangerous animals to face, and will defend itself to the death – yours or its own!
• Leopards are most active at dusk or night
• The best time to enjoy Leopard hunting in Zambia is during the cooler months when there is increased visibility with less dense vegetation and reduced rainfall. The Leopards are more active, and conditions are more comfortable
