Description

The explore Zambia safari package offers an adventure in 2 distinct regions of Zambia. You’ll get to experience game drives, guided walking safaris, cycling safaris, and cultural visits to the local village. Experience the thrill of spotting Africa’s iconic wildlife, from majestic elephants to leopards, with expert guides. Get up close and personal with nature as you explore the bush on foot, learning about the intricate ecosystems and smaller creatures often missed from a vehicle.

Trip Highlights

Follow the wild heart of Zambia through two of its most iconic regions — South Luangwa and North Luangwa National Parks. In South Luangwa, open-vehicle game drives and guided bush walks bring you face to face with elephants, leopards, antelope herds, and the rich birdlife that fills the air. Then shift into deeper wilderness in North Luangwa, where the trails thin and the silence deepens, offering unmatched walking safaris and mountain-bike rides through pristine bush. Along the way, you’ll cycle past termite mounds and learn from local village visits that reveal Zambia’s living traditions and human connection to the land. Each day blends high-energy exploration with quiet moments to absorb the rhythms of nature, all led by expert guides who bring the bush stories to life.
