Lower Zambezi
Set along the “might” Zambezi River, the Lower Zambezi is a remote and beautiful safari destination. With broad river channels, lush floodplains, and dramatic escarpments, it is a truly captivating part of Zambia and ideal for travelers seeking an off-the-beaten-path safari experience.
The river plays an instrumental role in shaping both the landscape and the wildlife experience. Of course you have your classic game drives but with the river, there are options for boat safaris and canoeing, allowing for viewing wildlife from a different perspective than a vehicle. The river attracts a plethora of wildlife to its banks such as elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, and wild dogs. It also brings exceptional birding opportunities.
The area is known for its luxury lodges that offer an intimate experience, where guests can take in the Zambian landscape, the river, and the surrounding wildlife from the comfort of their camp. Here the days on safari unfold at slower pace, allowing for relaxed wildlife viewing and a deeper connection to the scenery.
The Lower Zambezi is Zambia at its most wild and rewarding. With exceptional game viewing and the beautiful river as the backdrop to every safari moment, the Lower Zambezi perfectly captures the spirit of a Zambia safari.
