Zambia Travel Guide

Because I enjoyed it very much I give it an excellent grade. It was also much better than other surrounding parks (Malawi ones), but those were all also much smaller.

Copper and Elephants - the Real Africa

What is the "Real Africa"? Is it wild places teeming with wild animals? Is it remote swamps filled with mysterious birds? Is it raging rivers and plunging waterfalls? Is it bustling cities and towns awash with warm, friendly people? If this is real Africa, Zambia has it all and more.

Zambia is a wonderfull country! I travelled across this land in different trips and had no problems at all. People are overall very friendly and allways willing to help the visitors. I saw just two parks and I can not give an overall rating on the safari destinations in general but, as far as I have experienced, I was very satisfied

A beautiful place brimming with friendly people, amazing wildlife encounters and stunning landscapes

I have enjoyed fantastic safaris in Zambia in the months of January, February, March and April. The birdlife, mammals and trees are fascinating, and I managed to see everything on a fairly close up level so got good photographs.
I have stayed in a range of beautiful locations, including lakeside lodges and simple accomodation.
The weather was dry, apart from a few huge thunderstorms, I would return to Zambia at this time of year again.
The local peopl I met were friendly and very photogenic.

Isolated non-commercial wildlife haven with heavenly bush camps.

We loved the bush camps in Zambia and stayed with Norman Carr in the South Luangwa. The time of year was a little disappointing for wildlife at a couple of the camps but the ones nearer to the river were fantastic. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly and happy to please. Weather was spot on and there was no issue with flies. We also stayed at the Camp on the Zambezi and this was absolutely the highlight - an abundance of wildlife, no rush of safari vehicles at every sighting and the most friendly helpful people.

Zambia is still not overrun with tourists.

Friendly people, chill vibe, excellent wildlife viewing.

Absolutely awesome wildlife, from the ubiquitous impala to the stealthy leopard. Hippos, crocs, birds of all sorts, as well as elephants, rhinos, lions, bush pigs, hyenas, springboks, giraffes, birds... You name it, you can probably see it in Zambia.

My home country and a favorite holiday destination!

Zambia is gorgeous! The people are incredible, the sites are breathtaking, and there is always something new and wonderful to experience. I was born in Zambia, so I am a bit biased. Living in Los Angeles now, it's nice to visit home and to experience things like the Victoria Falls and the South Luangwa. To have a sunset safari over the water, seeing gorgeous animals and enjoying the peacefulness. There's nothing like it!

Zambia, the real Africa.

Zambia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. With multiple unique national parks, this country offers wildlife that is just as good if not better than countries like Tanzania or Kenya. Most importantly, Zambia offers something, that these other two don't, privacy. In my 15 years living in Zambia, I have never come across another safari truck, while on a game drive. People are very friendly, and crime is very low making Zambia the most ideal country to visit for safari.

Good wildlife, and an off the beaten track feel.
