Zambia is a fantastic destination, almost a third of our country is reserved for wildlife and parks. Zambia offers some of Africa’s most amazing wildlife parks, like South Luangwa, Kafue and Lower Zambezi . We are also famous for our stunning Victoria Falls which stretch for miles and miles, we also have the man made Lake Kariba with its unique bird wildlife.

Livingstone, close to the Zambezi river is more than a hundred years old. Founded by the famous Victorian explorer, Dr Livingstone, the town is to this day lined with Edwardian buildings and boasts a very beautiful hotel, aptly named “The Royal Livingstone”, a colonial style treat.

Zambia is one of the best walking safari destinations and seems to be made for hiking, canoeing and perfect incentives and events of course. We would be delighted to assist you with these.

Guided Tour of the Falls
Welcome to one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Victoria Falls is a mystical marvel shrouded in historical and geological significance. Discover and be awed by the falls and learn about the mysteries, the intrigue and the theories of her formation.

The Tour of the Falls offers the opportunity to weave in all the elements that create the authentic African Explorer, whilst providing an educational insight into some of the history and background to perhaps Africa’s most revered explorer on an expedition to one of the most memorable and spectacular sights in the world – Mosi Oa Tunya, “The Smoke That Thunders”. Depending on the overall size of groups, they will be split up into smaller sub groups and each of these will be assigned a guide who has an in-depth knowledge of Victoria Falls.

During the months of February to June the volume of water pouring over the lip of the falls is extremely high, creating a large amount of mist. Expect to get wet!

Elephant Interaction
Within the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park on the banks of the Zambezi River, approximately 10km from Livingstone, Zambezi Elephant Trails has established Zambia’s first “Elephant Camp”, offering a once in a lifetime insight into these gentle giants. Six African Elephants (Madinda, Mashumbi, Marula, Liwa, Danny and Bop) offer guests a chance to meet, touch and learn about these African Elephants and to understand their willingness to act under instruction. The training techniques used are based on the “perform and reward” method as opposed to the controversial “discipline and submission” technique commonly associated with Asian Elephants.

Upon arrival, guests are welcomed and a safety brief is conducted whilst an Indemnity is passed around and signed. The Elephant’s history is regaled before these magnificent creatures are called to meet the awaiting clients. Feed, touch and examine these wonderful animals under the safety of professional elephant handlers / keepers. Photography is encouraged during this once in a lifetime chance to get a “close-up” feel of the African Elephant, whilst the guides give an informative talk on the relationship between African Elephants and mankind. The direct interaction period lasts approximately 15 minutes and could be followed or preceded by lunch (see additional menu).
