Visits to the Victoria Falls

No trip to Zambia would be complete without a visit to the Victoria Falls, known to Zambians as Mosi-a-tunya, 'The smoke that thunders', Victoria Falls is twice as high as Niagra and is the largest sheet of falling water in the world.

Canoe safaris

Canoeing safaris are participatory with all supplies and provisions being carried in the canoes. The canoeing safaris are kept to a manageable size of five canoes per safari.

South Luangwa National Park

The South Luangwa National Park is one of Africa's best-kept secrets. Remote and wild, this 9050 square kilometers of pristine wilderness is home to some of the most varied and abundant wildlife the safari traveller could ever hope to find.
