Zambia | Top Recommendations

Zambia was an absolute surprise and we couldn't believe the experiences here would be so amazing. It is a stunning country with unspoiled landscapes, diverse wildlife and friendly atmosphere. It is one of the safest countries in Africa and with English being widely spoken, it’s a very easy place to travel.

Many people travel to Zambia because of the incredible Victoria Falls, but Zambia has much more to offer.

Zambia’s tropical climate and lush vegetation support a high density of wildlife and making it the perfect safari destination. Whether you head out on a walking safari through the Luangwa Valley, floating in a canoe along the Lower Zambezi or exploring the wild and remote Liuwa Plain.
