Lower Zambezi

Day 1 - Day 3

The Lower Zambezi area in southern Zambia borders the Zambezi River, about 450 kilometres downstream from Livingstone. It’s a vast unfenced area of scrub bush, rocky escarpments and authentic safari experiences of game drives, walking safaris, canoe trips, fishing, and unforgettable sunsets.

 

The wildlife here is varied and prolific. 

 

Lion, wild dog, hyena, leopard, buffalo, elephant and hippo make up the mix of game that move freely in this area, creating one of Zambia’s most remarkable safari destinations.

Victoria Falls (Zambia)

Day 4 - Day 6

One of the original natural wonders of the world, the Victoria Falls is a World Heritage Site and an extremely popular destination in Africa.

 

Known locally as ‘The Smoke that Thunders’ this spectacle is accessible from both Zambia and Zimbabwe and it is an ideal place to combine game viewing and water sports on your holiday.

 

There is excellent fishing, a terrifying bungee jump and arguably the best commercial white water rafting in the world, and on the Zambian side, Devil’s Pool at the tip of Livingstone Island.
