Zambia Luxury Safari and Vacations
Wildlife is at your fingertips when you travel through Zambia. A pride of lionesses stalks a herd of zebra as you look on from your safari vehicle. Graceful puku and reedbuck prance through the savannah of South Luangwa National Park. A strong population of leopards occupies this safe and breathtaking African wilderness, making them easily spotted, lounging on trees or walking along grassy paths.
It’s a sight to behold along the Luangwa River, when thousands of colorful southern-carmine bee-eaters swarm the area during breeding season in August-September. Birders delight in spotting rare shoebill stork in the marshy wetlands of Bangweulu.
In the wildlife corridor that runs through the north-central part of Zambia, close to a hundred different mammal species can be spotted.

Zambia is also considered Africa’s adventure capital. There are walking safaris through the vast floodplain, and night drives through the bush to spot nocturnal creatures on the prowl. Raise the adrenaline bar and go white-water rafting on the Zambezi or speedboat ride through the Kafue River.
The charming city of Livingstone too deserves some time. From there visit the fabulous Victoria Falls, and its Boiling Pot and Devil’s Pool. Wind up your holiday with a luxurious stay on a private island on the Zambezi River. In this tranquil paradise, you can reflect and recharge, deep-dive into the culture and history of Zambia, and perhaps start plotting your next vacation.
