Zambia is the birthplace of the walking safari and one of Africa's most rewarding destinations for adventurous, low-impact wildlife experiences.

Zambia is a landlocked country in Southern Africa, bordered by eight nations. It is home to some of Africa's most pristine wilderness areas, renowned for their expert guiding, uncrowded parks and authentic safari experiences.

The country's safari reputation rests on three iconic parks: South Luangwa National Park, Lower Zambezi National Park, and Kafue National Park. Each offers a distinct character and unique wildlife encounters.

Zambia is also home to the Zambian side of Victoria Falls, the historic town of Livingstone, and the magnificent Lake Tanganyika — the world's longest freshwater lake.
