Highlights
- Up
until the 1970's Zambia was considered to have had some of the
highest game populations in Africa - this safari destination has
been recovering steadily over the last few years with fresh
government controls over hunting and poaching - almost 30% of the
country is under game management
- Zambia
has a relatively undeveloped tourism infrastructure and a small but
sophisticated safari industry with excellent lodges and seasonal
bush camps and some of Africa's best safari guides - safaris in
Zambia are ideally suited for "old Africa hands" or those
seeking a remote and more exclusive safari
- A vast
grassy plateau dominates the country with the prime wildlife regions
being concentrated around the Luangwa,
Kafue and Zambezi
water systems - whilst not sharing the game diversity of some of
its neighbours, Zambia's wildlife concentrations are impressive -
it's ideal for specialists seeking specific African game species or
birdlife on a brilliant scale
- Zambia
is the home of the modern walking safari and without doubt offers
some of Africa's best traditional walking safaris, particularly in
the Luangwa Valley
- Night
drives are a speciality in Zambia and provide arguably the best
means for seeing some of the more elusive nocturnal species,
including leopard
