Zambia Small Group Tours

No trip to Zambia is complete without witnessing Victoria Falls—one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Locally known as Mosi-oa-Tunya (The Smoke That Thunders), this breathtaking waterfall spans 1.7 kilometers (1 mile) and plunges over 100 meters (328 feet) into the Zambezi Gorge. Visitors can explore Devil’s Pool, take a helicopter flight, or walk along the Knife-Edge Bridge for jaw-dropping views. The best time to see the falls at full power is from March to June, but for those wanting to swim in Devil’s Pool, August to December is ideal.

For an authentic safari experience, South Luangwa National Park is unmatched. Known as the birthplace of walking safaris, this park offers close-up encounters with elephants, lions, leopards, and over 400 bird species. The Luangwa River, a lifeline for the region’s wildlife, is perfect for spotting hippos and crocodiles. The best time for game viewing is during the dry season (May–October) when animals gather around water sources.

Just minutes from Victoria Falls, this small yet diverse park is perfect for a half-day safari, where you can see Zambia’s only white rhinos, elephants, and giraffes. It’s one of the few parks where you can do a self-drive safari, making it a great option for independent travelers.

Covering an area roughly the size of Wales, Kafue National Park is one of Africa’s largest protected areas. It boasts diverse ecosystems, including vast plains, thick woodlands, and the breathtaking Busanga Plains, where cheetahs roam freely. The park is a haven for safari-goers looking for off-the-beaten-path adventures, with fewer crowds and excellent chances to spot rare antelope species like the sable and roan.

Lake Kariba, Africa’s largest man-made lake, is a paradise for those seeking relaxation and adventure. Visitors can enjoy houseboat stays, sunset cruises, fishing trips, and wildlife sightings along its shores. It’s also a perfect getaway for those who want to unwind in nature with stunning lake views.
