Land of the legendary African walking safari, home of the Victoria Falls, the wild Zambezi River, breath-taking lakes and wetlands, a profusion of birds, abundant wildlife, and raw, pulsating wilderness, all in one friendly country. Acknowledged as one of the safest countries in the world to visit, Zambia's welcoming people live in peace and harmony. Blessed with 17 magnificent waterfalls apart from the spectacular Victoria Falls, Zambia offers tours to 'cascade followers' into the remote undeveloped rural areas where you can get a glimpse of village life. Zambia has the largest water resources in the whole of southern Africa with 5 massive lakes and plentiful rivers offering excellent fishing. A wide range of hi-action activities from the legendary Walking Safari deep in the wilderness, to world class River Rafting, Bunge into the deep gorge below the Victoria Falls, Abseiling, Canoeing Safaris down the Zambezi, River Surfing, excellent Tiger Fishing and breath-taking African sunsets.
The enormous Zambezi River plunges 103 metres into a chasm almost 2km in length. In full flood the water makes a deafening roar throwing up towering clouds of spray which create multitudes of sparkling rainbows and constantly drenches the opposite cliff in rain. No trip to Zambia would be complete without seeing this incredible natural phenomenon, one of the seven wonders of the natural world.
The 6,500ha Park extends around the falls and along the Zambezi River. A fenced off section, known as the
Game Park, is the home to white rhinos which have been introduced and do not occur naturally in Zambia.
Within the park is an area called the Old Drift – this is where the pioneers first settled and ferried
their goods across the Zambezi before the bridge was built. The habitat is a mixture of riverine vegetation,
dry mixed woodland and mopane.
