Tembwe Kambombo Hunting Block
Tembwe Kambombo Hunting block was granted to Kazumba Safaris in 2019 by the Department of National Parks and Wildlife in Zambia.
Located in the North Eastern part of Zambia, in the Chama District, Tembwe Kambombo hunting block boasts over 70 Km’s of the Mighty Luangwa River. Tembwe Kambombo is remotely located and thus provides a true wilderness experience to its clients.
Still reminiscent of the “wild Africa” of a bygone era, game is plentiful as is in all hunting concessions along the Luangwa River. Zambia’s hunting Concessions are still very untamed and thus very exciting to hunt. Tembwe Kambombo Hunting Block is completely unfenced, with all animals roaming in and out of the area as they please. This means that oftentimes an animal will appear at the opportune moment, adding both to the thrill and chance to harvest a once in a lifetime trophy.
Four of the Big Five (Lion, Leopard, Buffalo and Elephant) are available in abundance in our concession. Additional dangerous game species include both crocodile and hippopotamus. Some unique plains game species are also found in the concession and these include: Sable, Roan, Kudu, Impala, Puku, Eland, Wildebeast, Crocodile, Hippo, Hyena, Heartebeast, Grysbock, Waterbuck, Common Duiker, Reedbuck, Warthog and Bushpig.
We Welcome you to see for yourself and experience for yourself a true African Hunting Adventure filled with memories of a lifetime!

Conservation and Community Projects
Kazumba Safaris has provided unmatched support towards wildlife conservation and safari hunting operations in Tembwe Kambombo hunting block following its successful award of the block in 2019. Consequent to the award of the block, Kazumba Safaris has made tremendous and tireless efforts in transforming the area to become one of the best hunting blocks in Zambia.
Whilst working closely with DNPW, the Malawi-Zambia Trans-Frontier Conservation Area Project and Tembwe-Kambombo CRBs, the company reviewed the existing law enforcement strategies/plans and came up with innovative strategies to effectively respond to the wildlife conservation needs in the area. To implement the devised anti-poaching strategies, Kazumba safaris has invested heavily in anti-poaching programs in Tembwe Kambombo hunting block.
Kazumba realizes that to ensure wildlife sustainability, an effective and efficient anti-poaching approach is significant. Core to the values of Kazumba Safaris is the importance of protecting wildlife on one hand and its habitat on the other because the company strongly believes that without these two elements, no viable and sustainable safari industry can take place.
As already highlighted, Kazumba Investments Limited has an unequaled record in successful anti-poaching and wildlife management in the Tembwe Kambombo hunting block. The company has successfully been running one of the best anti-poaching programs in the Luangwa Valley through a collaborative effort between the Chiefs, DNPW, the TFCA project, the CRBs and the company. This sets Kazumba Investments apart from most hunting outfitters in Zambia.
kazumba Safaris on the other hand is playing a significant role with the help from revenues generated from our clients in uplifting the livilihoods of the communities we work in. Among many projects carried out in Tembwe and Kambombo some notable ones are; providing 4 4X4 vehicles to the chiefs and communities, building a fully fledged school and sinking boreholes in villages where there is no access to clean and fresh water.
A client can be fully satisfied when hunting with Kazumba Safaris that a significant portion of the value of the hunt goes back towards protecting wildlife, the habitat and improving the living standards of the communities!
