Zambia Safari Vacation Packages: Zambia Safaris, Tours, Lodges & Travel Guide

Zambia Safaris Zambia is the home of the walking safari. Most Zambia safari lodges offer quality walking safari experiences in the major National Parks. This is your chance to get up close to Africa's amazing wildlife.

South Luangwa National Park and Kafue National Park are some of the best locations in Zambia for game viewing. There is a rich variety of bird life, providing excellent photographic opportunities on a Zambia safari.

Zambezi River Tours From the drifting, tanquility aboard the river boat, African Queen, or on foot in the company of park rangers, you can appreciate the vastly differing perspectives of Zambian safari along the Zambezi River.

Canoeing and Adventure safaris offer you a unique style of game viewing in the game-rich area of the Lower Zambezi Valley where, after each day's adventure, accommodation is either camping on selected islands or in the comfort of riverside lodges.

The majestic Victoria Falls straddle the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is one of the Wonders of the World and proves to be a highlight on any Zambia safari. This beautiful country can be reached by scheduled flight from either Johannesburg, Harare or Windhoek to the Zambian capital of Lusaka, or fly to Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe, and transfer by road over the Zambezi to Livingstone.

Livingstone is the centre for a host of adventure, scenic and cultural activities. Take a guided tour around Livingstone Museum, named after English explorer David Livingstone, to get your perspective of Zambia's history.

That done, go wild over the Victoria Falls by micro-light, helicopter or balloon and get a sense of power and majesty before submitting to the gruelling strain of white-river rafting through the gorges.

If you are truly suicidal you can go river boarding or tandem kayaking on the rapids. But nothing will compare to hurling your self into the Batoka Gorge from Victoria Falls Bridge. This is the worlds highest bungee jump from a bridge, and as the cable snaps you back up, you can admire this historic civil engineering landmark and wonder why you didn't go on a horseback trail.

By far, the most novel way of safari in Zambia, is on Elephant Back. It would be a pity to come this far, and not saddle up and head out into the bush, or along the Zambezi river bank.

Zambia's abundance of wildlife and its vast tracts of pristine land make for a true safari experience. Renowned for its walking safaris, these Zambian national parks will give you an opportunity to stretch your legs.

South Luangwa National Park lies between the Luanga River in the East and the Mchinga Escarpment in the West.

Walking safaris are very popular here and walks extend over a number of days with camping under the stars at night. All walks are led by trained park rangers.

Lochinvar National Park is a small wetland park on the Kafue River with over 500 species of bird including Windfowl, Pelicans, Herons, ducks and moorhen. The African Fish Eagle, Zambia's national bird, is found here. Read about birding in Lochinvar

The park is also home to the Kafue Lechwe, a red-coated, long-horned antelope. This antelope is found nowhere else in the world. They live on the side of the lake which is supplied by the Kafue River. Although small in size, Lochinvar National Park is well worth a visit on any Zambia safari.
