Why go to Zambia?
Zambia is the birthplace of walking safaris, offering some of Africa’s most authentic and off-the-beaten-track experiences. Its unspoiled wilderness, such as the South Luangwa, Kafue and Liuwa Plain National Parks, are brimful of wildlife. Zambia is also home to the mighty Zambezi River and Victoria Falls, shared with neighbouring Zimbabwe. Your Zambia safari could include:
South Luangwa National Park, famous for its walking safaris and leopards
Lower Zambezi National Park, for canoe safaris and wildlife viewing along the Zambezi River
Kafue National Park, Zambia’s oldest and largest national park, offers diverse habitats and fewer tourists
The jewel of Kafue, Busanga Plains In the far north of Kafue National Park
the vast and vibrant Liuwa Plain National Park, home to Africa's 2nd-largest wildebeest migration
the world-famous Victoria Falls - the smoke that thunders
Bangweulu Wetlands for the endemic black lechwe and rare shoebill
Combined, these destinations offer an exciting selection of wildlife habitats, extraordinary scenery and wild experiences.

Everything you need to know about Zambia
Zambia hosts many incredible safari destinations. Here are some of the top destinations to include in your Zambia safari:
Best places to visit during your safari in Zambia
South Luangwa National Park: Famous for its walking safaris and high leopard density. Rich floodplains that spill over into the surrounding plains, savannas and woodlands make South Luangwa ideal safari habitat
Lower Zambezi National Park: Known for canoe safaris and game viewing along the Zambezi River
Kafue National Park: Zambia’s oldest and largest national park, offering diverse habitats and fewer tourists
Busanga Plains: In the far north of Kafue National Park is the park's jewel – Busanga Plains. The vast mosaic of grassy seasonal floodplains provides superb grazing and is the best place for wildlife viewing
Liuwa Plain National Park: Liuwa Plain is all about big cats, vast open spaces, seasonal floods bringing flushes of flowers and waterfowl, and herds of wildebeest – Africa's 2nd-largest wildebeest migration
Victoria Falls: A bucket-list destination for its awe-inspiring beauty and adventure activities
Bangweulu Wetlands: An excellent spot to spot the endemic black lechwe and rare shoebill
The Zambia safari seasons
The dry season (May to October) is the best time for safaris, with peak wildlife viewing from August to October. The rainy season (November to April) is ideal for birdwatching and lush landscapes but may limit accessibility to some areas.
The Zambezi River water levels are high from February to July, peaking in April. The levels drop after the April peak and are low from August to January. High water levels mean a spectacular waterfall display at Victoria Falls with a deafening thunder and heavy mist that rises up to 400m above the Falls - the smoke that thunders. Low water levels mean a clear view of the Falls, exciting river rafting and less mist to fog your camera lens.
