5/5

From the comfort of the river, one can see Hippos [X], Elephants [X], BIRDS [X], Monkeys [X]. Of course, be sure to go to Victoria Falls too! Lovely Dinner Sunset Cruise (took it twice). Enjoyable Elephant Ride.There's ultralight gliding, white water rafting, and the Livingstone Museum.

Bring mosquito repellent. I was there in June/July and the mozzies came out at dusk.

Canoeing the Zambezi is a dream fulfilled.
Overall rating
5/5

We paddled the Zambezi on an 8 day 7 night canoe safari. The wildlife sightings are non-stop as you constantly pass through areas rich in hippos, crocodiles, rich bird life and elephants. Giraffes, lions, baboons, kudu, and more were spotted also during our trip, which we shall treasure a lifetime.

The roads, accommodations and guide service are all excellent in Zambia. Travelling from Lusaka to the area of the park is straightforward and easy.

Our guides on the trip were incredibly familiar with the area and were gracious hosts and ambassadors to their park. Zambia will greet you with a smile, and you will have a smile on your face when you depart as well.

Lower Zambezi is a great national park. Right on the Zambezi river, a favorite activity is Tiger fishing. I have stayed inside and outside the park. I recommend Kenyemba Lodge. It has a private island with game viewing opportunity, and is a short drive from the national park. It also has great food, and, located right on the river, is excellent for fishing.

We took a 4 day canoe trip down the Zambezi River to Lower Zambezi National Park. It was a wild, amazing bush experience down a river filled with crocs, hippos, elephants, and jaw-dropping scenery.

The mighty Zambezi river, fourth largest in Africa and home of the mysterious river God, Nyami-Nyami, is the show piece of this remote National Park. The flood plain offers the best game viewing on land, while a boat cruise on the Zambezi, visiting some of the islands, is a wonderful experience.

Not easy to reach and a real wilderness along the Zambezi River.

A lot of animals but quite difficult to see because of the vegetation.
