HOME TO WALKING SAFARIS

One of Southern Africa’s wildest and most remote destinations, Zambia is a haven for safari connoisseurs, offering abundant big game viewing and expert guiding—without the crowds. Discover a landscape shaped by winding waterways, sweeping valleys, and oxbow lagoons, home to some of Africa’s most iconic wildlife. While Victoria Falls is Zambia’s undisputed showstopper—born of the mighty Zambezi River—thrill-seekers can take on white-water rafting, gorge swings, and bungee jumps, while those craving a gentler adventure can soar above Livingstone Island on a scenic flight.

When to visit

Zambia’s seasons transform the safari experience. The dry season, from May to October, is the prime time to visit, with exceptional game viewing, warm days, and little to no rain. From December to April, the green season paints the landscapes in lush hues, bringing wildlife births and vibrant birdlife, though some camps close due to seasonal flooding.
