Informations sur l'arrivée
It takes around 6 hours to get to Tiko from Lusaka, so we recommend spending the night in Lusaka and setting off early at 06:00 – If you come with a later bus, you may have to wait for hours, until it is full.
(Please contact us for information on getting here from Lilongwe, Malawi which is also around 6 hours away)
Lusaka airport transfer: Taxis can be found outside the airport and cost around US$30 to the city.
Lusaka accommodation: There are many backpacker hotels in Lusaka close to the busstation
Lusaka to Tiko transfer:
Bus to Tiko is US 17 one way from Lusaka Intercity Bus station and takes 6-7 hours.
Taxi is US$ 280, if you want to be fetched from Katete.
At the end of August there is a very impressive traditional ceremony taking place near Katete. For that you have to book early.
