Shamkan Lodge stands on Lilayi Road in Lusaka South, a low-density district of sporting clubs and small farms on the southern edge of the city. It trades on its social page as Shamkan Lodge at Lusaka South.
Best for
Visitors attending events at the Lusaka South clubs, and families who want space rather than a city-centre address. Not for business travellers whose meetings are downtown.

40 km to the airport is a long transfer by Lusaka standards. Allow for it.
Two separate booking records exist for this lodge, which suggests a duplicated supplier entry rather than two properties.

Lilayi Road runs south from Kafue Road into the Lusaka South belt. The centre of Lusaka is roughly half an hour north in traffic, and the airport is a longer run east. A vehicle is necessary.

Before you book
Confirm the 10:00 check-out against your flight. Allow properly for the airport run. And ask whether an event is booked at the lodge on your dates.
