Ancient Iron Smelter - Kafue - Zambia

Kaingu Safari Lodge offers cultural tours of the local village. People who live in this area were originally hunter gathers but are now not able to provide for their families by hunting wild animals as this is poaching. Tourism provides a welcome opportunity to earn money in a different way. The reconstruction of the ancient iron smelter is part of the tour and is available to any of the guests at lodges in the Kafue for a $5 fee that goes straight to the community via a trust.
