At the heart of the Lilayi Elephant Sanctuary is one of Lusaka’s finest vacation lodges. The modern building – while primarily built of sturdy brick – incorporates many traditional building techniques, such as conical thatched roofs and bamboo partition walls. Safaris are all part of the experience here: game drives are available for an additional fee during the day, while the sundowner drives include a few drinks and snacks, plus the inimitable atmosphere and animal activity at twilight.
