As a safari and wildlife destination, Zambia does not always factor into the list already etched into traveler’s minds. The country’s safari areas are not nearly as well-known as, for example, Botswana’s Okavango Delta, or Tanzania’s Serengeti. This means that prolific wilderness utopias like South Luangwa and Kafue are frequently overlooked.
Zambia’s history as a safari destination is a surprisingly influential one, however. South Luangwa is considered as the birthplace of the walking safari – a safari essential that is now savored across the continent's conservation areas. When it was proclaimed, the park’s bountiful wildlife meant that visitors need not have ventured far on foot for unforgettable wild encounters.
While our packages that include the Victoria Falls are part and parcel of a visit to Africa, our safaris in Zambia are most popular amongst travelers who have visited the continent before and wish to explore more ‘intermediate’ wilderness areas. These safaris are more about an authentically immersive experience and less about ticking off a list of mammals. Moreover, the safari activities available tend to be quite diverse, frequently including water-based ventures as well.
