Zambia’s many parks are defined by the great rivers and basins that characterise the country and her topography. Each offers tremendous opportunity for exploration and the walking safari is particularly prevalent here, in beautiful safari locations that exceed expectation. Among the most celebrated of its sights is the heart-stopping Victoria Falls, which is one of Africa’s most arresting. The Luangwa Valley and its idyllic, luscious parks offer some of the continent’s most remote and unique wilderness areas. The Lower Zambezi too is a maze of floodplains and oxbow lagoons, attracting countless game and stalking predators. 

Safaris can combine as many of the below attractions as you wish to incorporate and can end with some perfect relaxation on Lake Malawi.

Big Cats: Kafue National Park is excellent for big cat sightings; lion, leopard, and cheetah can all be found here.

Birds: South Luangwa National Park is incredible for birding, with over 400 species.

Elephants: Although the wildlife in the Lower Zambezi isn’t as diverse as elsewhere, there is a lot of it – especially elephants

Hippos: You can see huge pods of hippos in South Luangwa National Park; they live in the river in the company of crocodiles.

Wild Dogs: Liuwa Plains is the best place to see wild dogs in Zambia.
