This highlights of Zambia Itinerary offers a unique insight into some of the most diverse landscapes and incredible wildlife that Zambia has to offer. You will experience Zambia’s iconic rivers the Luangwa and the Zambezi as well as the natural wonder of Victoria Falls.
The itinerary is 3-part with visits to the South Luangwa National Park, the Lower Zambezi National Park, and Victoria Falls. The South Luangwa is known for its leopard sightings and walking safaris, and the Lower Zambezi National Park is all about the river, boating, canoeing, and fishing. In both, you will experience game drives with exceptional guides and stay in intimate, back-to-nature camps. The trip will conclude at one of the seven natural wonders of the world, the Victoria Falls. Once you have been soaked by the spray from the Falls and got your fill of photographs, the surrounding area is packed with adventure activities from bungee jumping and white water rafting to helicopter flips over the Falls.
