Discover Tranquility & Adventure

on the Zambezi

Journey to the heart of Lower Zambezi National Park, Zambia—a pristine wilderness sanctuary along the majestic Zambezi River. This untouched landscape, known for its prolific wildlife and diverse safari experiences, promises to soothe your soul.

From tranquil river cruises to exhilarating game drives, Lower Zambezi offers a hidden corner of Zambia where Africa’s raw spirit thrives. Encounter elephants bathing on riverbanks, pods of hippos in the gentle flow, and predators basking under the African sun.

Embrace the peaceful rhythm of the Zambezi within this unspoiled haven, a breathtaking adventure in a class of its own.

Located just 100 km downstream from Victoria Falls, Lower Zambezi National Park remains one of the few pristine safari wilderness areas left in Africa. This underdeveloped reserve lies across the Zambezi River from Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe.

The park features mostly woodland savannah, and the sloping escarpment concentrates wildlife in the river valley. While Lower Zambezi may not have the same diversity of wildlife as other parks in Zambia, it offers superb game viewing both on land and water, making it a relaxing end to a Zambian safari.

The Zambezi River banks are frequented by large herds of elephants, buffalo, lions, leopards, and various antelope. Crocodiles sun themselves on the banks, while pods of hippos wallow in the waters. Bird watching is particularly rewarding, with a large variety of bird species.

Game viewing can be enjoyed on day and night drives in an open 4×4 safari vehicle or by boat along the river. Another way to experience this untamed wilderness is on a canoe safari, paddling silently down the reed-lined Zambezi River. Walking safaris offer a more intimate experience of smaller creatures often overlooked on game drives. The Zambezi River is also ideal for fishing, providing one of the best spots for catching the mighty Tiger fish.
