Musekese Camp is ituated in a remote and secluded sector of the Northern Kafue National Park, this small classic bush-camp is set on a stunning location overlooking a game rich lagoon, nick-named ‘Eden’. Owners and Guides Phil and Tyrone are well respected conservationists and alongside Classic Zambia Safaris they run the non-profit organisation Musekese Conservation. Game viewing here is exceptional, on foot, by vehicle or by boat on the mighty Kafue.

Location
Musekese Camp is situated in the northern part of Kafue National Park overlooking a seasonal lagoon or ‘dambo’ next to the Kafue River itself. Musekese Camp is accessible by road from Lusaka (approximately 5 hours drive) or by flight into Lufupa Airstrip (about 1 hour 20 minutes followed by a 30 minute transfer into camp). A stay at Musekese can easily be combined with the Busanga Plains which is approximately 3.5 hours by game drive transfer. Jeffery & Mckeith have their own bushcamp in the Southern Part of Busanga, Ntemwa bush camp, or you can combine with one of the other Busanga properties.

In 2016 the owners of Jeffery & McKeith Safaris decided to create the non-profit conservation organisation – Musekese Conservation (MC). Phil and Tyrone have been supporting the work of the anti-poaching teams operating under MC since it’s inception. In 2019 some 70% of the operational budget for MC was provided for from the tourism revenues of J&M Safaris. Today, more and more guests and outside donors help this fantastic cause, with a reduction in poaching incidents already being seen.
Power Source – Musekese Camp have a central charging station in the main area only. Power is 24 hours and is a solar set-up with a generator for back-up.
WiFi – There is no guest wifi available at camp (only for management back of house). Camp is located in an area which is free of cell signal.
Private Camp and Private Guiding is available
The J&M team have many years of experience in wildlife film-making, both logistical support and guiding – as such it is the ideal location for keen wildlife photographers and videographers (with bespoke filming vehicles available in request)
