Original on transparent_edited (1).png

Zambia's Lower Zambezi region, a captivating wilderness nestled along the Zambezi River, offers an unparalleled safari experience. This pristine and diverse ecosystem boasts a remarkable array of wildlife, including elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, and a variety of antelope species. The Zambezi River, a lifeblood for the region, attracts hippos and crocodiles, while the surrounding floodplains, woodlands, and grasslands provide habitat for numerous bird species.


The Lower Zambezi is renowned for its exceptional canoeing and boating safaris, which allow visitors to explore the region's waterways and observe wildlife from a unique perspective. Fishing enthusiasts will be delighted by the opportunity to catch tigerfish, bream, and other species in the Zambezi's productive waters. The region also offers game drives, walking safaris, and cultural visits to nearby villages, providing a well-rounded safari experience.


The best time to visit the Lower Zambezi region is during the dry season, from May to October, when wildlife viewing is at its peak. Animals congregate around the Zambezi River and its tributaries, making them easier to spot, and the vegetation is less dense, offering better visibility. The dry season also offers pleasant weather for outdoor activities and exploring the region's diverse landscapes. Whether you're seeking adventure, relaxation, or a close encounter with nature, the Lower Zambezi promises an unforgettable safari experience.
