Things to Do in Zambia
Zambia offers a variety of experiences to allow you to see both the country and its wildlife in unique, exciting ways. Apart from traditional game drives during both day and night, a safari in Zambia can also consist of walking, canoeing, boating, flying, rafting and more.
One of our favorite things to do in Zambia is a walking safari in the South Luangwa. As the home of the walking safari, getting out on foot here is incredible. Safely approaching animals on foot while also learning about the smaller aspects of the bush is something truly special and unique. For those who enjoy getting on the water, try your hand at wrangling a tiger fish or maybe go on a canoe safari on the mighty Zambezi River, slowly floating as elephants cross the river using their trunks as a snorkel. The versatility of experiences here is sure to keep you entertained—you may never want to leave!
Canoeing on the Zambezi River
Lower Zambezi, Zambia
The Zambezi is renowned for truly spectacular canoeing as it provides you with the chance to see game from a wholly different perspective...looking up at it instead of down!
Fishing on the Zambezi River
Lower Zambezi, Zambia
The Zambezi River is host to some of the most incredible fresh water sport fishing in the world with both spinning and fly fishing, on a strictly catch and release policy according to the park rules. The most popular quarry is the infamous Tigerfish.
Game Drives in the South Luangwa
Luangwa Valley, Zambia
Game drives are the most common way of exploring the African bush. A vehicle allows you to cover distance quickly and comfortably and offers visitors the best opportunity of getting very close to wildlife in a safe and controlled way.
Game Viewing in the Lower Zambezi
Lower Zambezi, Zambia
Game viewing in the Lower Zambezi National Park, with varying options such as game drives, boat and canoe safaris, or bush walks, is the highlight of any safari trip to Zambia.
Night Drives
Luangwa Valley, Zambia
If you get the opportunity to head out after sunset you should take it. The bush transforms under the cover of darkness as the nocturnal wildlife gets going. Using a spotlight your guide will scan the bush for eye-shine picking out some great action.
