Zambia, the land of the legendary walking safari, offers an authentic and off-the-beaten-path African experience. With the mighty Zambezi River, Zambia’s untamed wilderness is a paradise for nature enthusiasts and thrill-seekers alike. This unspoiled gem promises a raw and intimate connection with nature and its wildlife.
CLIMATE:
Zambia’s climate is characterized by a wet and dry season. The best time to visit is during the dry winter months from May to October when wildlife congregates around the Luangwa River in South Luangwa National Park and Lower Zambezi National Park. This period also offers excellent opportunities for walking safaris, one of Zambia’s unique offerings. For a more exclusive experience, the shoulder months of May and October are perfect, with fewer crowds and pleasant weather.
