Extraordinary Safaris. Lasting Legacies.

What Makes a Classic Zambia Safari Truly Special

At Classic Zambia Safaris, we offer more than just a trip — we create immersive African safari adventures that connect you with Zambia’s untouched wilderness. As one of the few owner-operated safari companies, we focus on intimate camps, expert guiding, and uncrowded wildlife encounters in the Kafue, Lower Zambezi, and Luangwa regions. Every safari is carefully designed to combine thrilling wildlife experiences with conservation and community support, ensuring your journey is authentic, meaningful, and unforgettable. Discover the magic of Zambia on a safari tailored just for you.

Who We Are

We were born from a shared passion for Zambia’s wilderness areas. As founders — Luke Evans, Kyle Branch, Tyrone McKeith, and Phil Jeffery — we brought our individual safari companies together to create Classic Zambia Safaris. Our vision is simple: to offer a seamless safari experience while staying true to our deep-rooted commitment to conservation. We are owner-run, expert-led, and driven by a profound purpose — to share the wilderness we love, responsibly.

Our Story

‘’I wish the world was twice as big and half of it was unexplored.’’ David Attenborough aptly describes the allure of a truly untouched wilderness. Do such areas still exist? Yes, but they are hard to find in this day and age. The story behind Classic Zambia harks back to this exploratory ethos…

Conservation is at the heart of what we do

Musekese Conservation is a Zambian-run non-profit organization, founded by Phil and Tyrone. While it operates independently, our organizations remain closely linked through a shared commitment to Zambia’s wildlife and communities. MC carries out a full range of conservation activities across the Kafue landscape, including law enforcement, research, and community initiatives that protect wildlife and support local people within and adjacent to Kafue National Park. Classic Zambia continues to be one of the major supporters of MC’s projects across the landscape.
