From Kafunta to Australia: Headlines & Global Fame

When our staff make the cover of acclaimed newspaper

KAFUNTA's global fame

In August 2023, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a wave of messages from our Australian guests. 

They were buzzing with excitement about Kafunta Safaris making headlines in an Australian newspaper. And at the heart of the story was none other than our beloved guest services diva, Betty herself.

We couldn’t have been prouder of our team, especially Betty, who’s become a cherished member of the Kafunta family. Her dedication, infectious enthusiasm, and unwavering commitment to ensuring every guest has an unforgettable safari experience have earned her the spotlight she truly deserves.

 

Betty’s journey from her humble beginnings with us to gracing the pages of an renown newspaper is a testament to her passion and the genuine connections she forms with our guests. She’s not just an integral part of our team; she’s the warm and welcoming face that many of our visitors associate with their Kafunta experience.

As it turned out, the author Stephen Scourfield, was a guest of ours earlier in tthe 2023 season, but he came anonymously with some friends. We didn’t realize a couple of stories were stoon to be published talking about Kafunta’s connection with Australia.

 

The Australian newspaper’s recognition is a testament to the magic that unfolds within the South Luangwa National Park. It’s where dreams of unforgettable safari adventures come to life, and where the dedication of our team members, like Betty, or Martin – the subject of another article – shines as brightly as the African sun.

 

As we continue to host travelers from around the world, we remain committed to providing exceptional safari experiences.
