5.00Such a wonderful experience. The locals were very nice at the village and all around the staff and guides were very helpful and entertaining. We played games with the kids, danced, made pottery, and learn how to play traditional Zambian games. The bat cave was the cherry on top to this trip. Overall, it was a once-in-a lifetime experience you should'nt miss out on.
Great Experience in National Park and Village

5.00I had an excellent experience with Vishnal and Kavina in the Lusaka National Park and Mulube Village. We saw rhinos very close with the rangers in the National Park, and I really enjoyed the displays at the Elephant Orphanage. The visit to the village provided an insight into rural village life, and was done in a very respectful way. An excellent day out!
Awesome time at the Muluwe Village

5.00A beautiful day spent in this village where people live in almost autarky. People are very welcoming and as curious about us as we are about them. It’s not a trick for tourists even if they receive regular visits. Earthen huts and straw roofs, fields that allow them to feed and sell a little at the market. Some pottery activities, a mechanical pump installed by the government, that's the scenery. The agency is very friendly and caring and had the idea to organize activities such as an introduction to pottery and local play, which allows sharing.
Truly Authentic Experience

5.00This trip was a total surprise, when I booked it all I knew is that I would visit a cave by a village. I was in for a treat, I was picked up in a nice vehicle driven around Lusaka, then to a small village where I was in for a treat. I met the village elders, members and little kids. I was given a tour of village and explained the roles of each family member. I got to understand day to day life in a remote Zambian Village, I got to make a traditional clay pot, eat roasted corn with the village members, went to the farms and interacted with village members. We then hiked to the sacred caves where I saw Bush paintings and also bats. We finished with a picnic style lunch in a traditional hut. Highly recommended and great tour company that is really passionate about Zambian tourism.
Unforgettable Authentic Experience and Memories!!

5.00Amazing caves, wonderful village and a really lovely family! It was a last minute booking but Vishal was super accommodating, he picked me up right from my accommodation and organised a food shop before going to the village and cave. The cave was amazing! It's very unique to see so many bats (and baby bats) amongst the stalagmites and learn about how the local people engage with the caves. It was also wonderful getting the opportunity to collaborate on a pot with the grandmother (she is a magician with the clay!), and to play games with everyone else. It was a great day and a perfect excursion from Lusaka

5.00Thank you for an authentic experience of Leopard Hill fruit bat caves and Mulube Village. Excellent guide and driver. Very thoughtful and respectful guide with in-depth knowledge. Relaxed and friendly meeting with the villagers who spoke of the traditions and myths, involved us in making clay pots and playing a traditional game. The caves were a real sensory experience and just amazing . We can highly recommend this tour.
