By road
Mfuwe is about 3 hours by car from Chipata (123 km) in the dry season, but the road is not tarred and travel is more difficult, occasionally even impossible, in the wet season.
There is no public transport as such. Safari lodges typically throw in free airport transfers, but charge around $20-30 for other trips.
