Why visit Zambia?
There are numerous compelling reasons to explore the enchanting landscapes of Zambia. Whether you’re soaring above the majestic ‘Smoke that Thunders’, navigating the exhilarating rapids of the Zambezi River, or immersing yourself in close encounters with wildlife, Zambia offers an array of accommodation options and activities to suit every traveller’s preferences. Venturing into Zambia opens doors to some of Southern Africa’s most rugged and secluded destinations, yet without sacrificing comfort.
Zambia’s Safaris seamlessly blend exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities with luxurious lodging and expert guiding services, setting the stage for unforgettable experiences. Despite the timeless allure of Zambia’s expansive reserves, which have long captivated Safari enthusiasts, they remain refreshingly uncrowded compared to more renowned parks in Africa. The only bustling hotspot you’re likely to encounter is at Zambia’s foremost attraction: the breathtaking Victoria Falls.
1. Enjoy a thrilling game viewing experience on foot
Walking Safaris provide distinct and immersive encounters distinct from conventional game drives. They awaken your senses, connecting you with the African wilderness in a primal manner impossible from within a vehicle. By embarking on a walking Safari, you integrate with the environment, enjoying intimate encounters with nature and wildlife at a leisurely pace.
2. Adventures along the Mighty Zambezi River
Exploring the majestic Zambezi River is a major highlight of any trip to Zambia. Serving as the boundary between Zambia and Zimbabwe and flowing upstream from Victoria Falls, a Zambezi River Safari offers a glimpse of paradise for water enthusiasts. From thrilling white water rafting to serene boat Safaris, catch-and-release fishing, canoeing, and sunset boating Safaris, there’s no shortage of adventure for those seeking water-based activities.
3. Revel at the beauty of Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls excursions stand out as a primary motivation for travellers embarking on a Safari in Zambia. This Southern African nation boasts half of the continent’s largest waterfall, drawing thousands of visitors from across the globe each year to witness this awe-inspiring natural spectacle firsthand. The Zambian section of the Falls presents abundant attractions and is increasingly gaining popularity among travellers exploring Southern Africa. Notably, visitors are presented with a plethora of luxurious lodges and hotels situated directly on the banks of the Zambezi River, offering stunning views just upstream from the falls.
4. Be enchanted by Africa’s largest Bat Migration
Tanzania and Kenya boast the renowned Great Wildebeest Migration, while Botswana showcases its zebra migration. In contrast, Zambia hosts Africa’s largest bat migration. From October to December annually, around 8 million straw-coloured fruit bats journey from the Congo to Kasanka National Park in search of the wild Masuku fruits.
This remarkable event not only marks Africa’s most extensive bat migration but also stands as the world’s largest mammal migration. The annual Kasanka bat migration remains a hidden gem of the natural world, with few having the opportunity to witness it firsthand.
