Kawaza Village

For over 15 years Robin Pope Safaris has supported a school in the Nsefu Village area. Kawaza School now has the reputation in Zambia of being a great example of how help from tourism can improve a community. A number of the guests that visited the school said that they would be interested in learning more about the local way of life. Robin Pope Safaris now offer the opportunity to stay at Kawaza Village for a day visit or a night.

The Kawaza Village Project is self-run by a committee of villages with Robin Pope Safaris now playing only a marketing and advisory role. The income from the project not only supports the village and the project members, but also helps run the school.

Kawaza is the winner of the prestigious Silver Otter Award 2000, given for the Best Overseas Tourism Project by the British Guild of Travel Writers.

visit to Kawaza Village and the schools is often remembered years later by our guests as the most rewarding part of their visit to Africa. To simply game view and luxuriate in the comfort of the camps is wonderful but visiting the community and interacting with the locals will complete the journey. Visit the Kawaza Village pages for further information.

Kawaza can be visited from Nkwali, Tena Tena and Nsefu as a morning activity. You can also pre book a overnight stay at the village.
