Transportation from Lusaka Airport to Lusaka City Center
You do not have many options to reach Lusaka city center from Lusaka Airport, or officially Kenneth Kaunda International Airport, which connects Lusaka, the capital of Zambia, to both other cities of the country and different countries of the world.
The easiest way to make this journey is to take a taxi from the airport. This journey of approximately 20 km takes an average of 30 minutes. You can recognize the taxis at the airport by the orange strip next to them. For security reasons, you can find the license plates and phone numbers of the taxis authorized to pick up passengers from the airport on the airport's official website.
Your other option, other than a taxi, would be to arrange an airport transfer online or through your hotel. You can use the Tripadvisor site for this.
Another option is to take the minibuses that go from the airport to the last stop of Chelstone at the entrance of the city, although not to the city center. You can reach the city center economically by transferring from here again. However, it is worth remembering that this method is not recommended for tourists.
