There are no lodges open to the public in the North Park but several operators run prebooked, organised safaris there. Shiwa Safaris have two bush camps and their safaris begin at the Shiwa Ngandu estate over the western side of the escarpment.

Zambia's smallest owner-operated camp, Kutandala Camp caters for only six guests on each safari. All the rooms have an unrestricted view of the Mwaleshi River and its flood plain throughout the day.

The Northern third of the park has recently been opened up to self-drive tourists. There is a campsite by the park gate and also several privately run campsites close to the Western boundary of the park. The opening up of this area to self-drive tourists now makes for an interesting cicuitous route through Northern Zambia, taking in Kasanka National Park, Kandalila Falls, Mutinondo Wilderness, Kapishya Hot Springs and Shiwa House. Now instead of having to return by the same route, it is possible to pass through North Luangwa National Park, stay over in Luambe National Park and then carry on to South Luangwa and Mfuwe.
