Frequently Asked Questions

Is Mazabuka District a primary golf destination, given it only has one course?

Honestly, no, it's not a primary golf destination if you're looking for multiple championship courses. However, the single course here, Mazabuka Golf Club, offers a genuinely charming and authentic Zambian golf experience that's absolutely worth a visit if you're passing through or want a unique local round.

When's the best time of year to play golf in Mazabuka?

We highly recommend visiting during Zambia's dry season, typically from May to October, for the best playing conditions. You'll find the course firmer and drier then, making for a more enjoyable round compared to the wetter, lusher conditions of the rainy season.

What's the golf experience like at Mazabuka Golf Club?

You'll find a wonderfully relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere at Mazabuka Golf Club, a true local's course. The fairways can be a bit rugged, reflecting the natural landscape, but the greens are usually well-maintained, offering a fun and challenging round that truly captures the local spirit.

How easy is it to access Mazabuka Golf Club and secure a tee time?

Getting to Mazabuka is straightforward, usually a couple of hours' drive south from Lusaka on a good road. As it's a single, local course, securing a tee time is generally very easy – you can often just show up, but a quick call ahead is always a good idea to be safe.

What else can I do in Mazabuka District after my round?

After your golf, Mazabuka itself is a bustling market town, so take some time to explore the vibrant local markets for a real taste of Zambian life and culture. For something more serene, consider a drive towards the Kafue River for some excellent birdwatching or just to enjoy the peaceful rural scenery.
