ENQUIRE

Archived entries for  Zambia

Zambia’s premier attraction is undoubtedly Victoria Falls, which it shares with neighbouring Zimbabwe. You can stay in either country but most travelers head to Zambia these days. One of the world’s seven natural wonders, the Falls are simply spectacular and when in full flood are the largest falling curtain of water in the world. And you can enjoy an array of activities in the ‘Adrenalin Capital’ of Africa. Visit the Zambia section on our website.

That’s as [...]

Kruger in the morning, Vic Falls in the afternoon!

Kruger and Vic Falls

  Imagine a Kruger National Park game drive in the early morning, the air still crisp the grass still dew laden, your khaki clad ranger motions for silence as he negotiates the open topped four wheel drive vehicle through a tight gap between acacia tree and granite boulder.

The current model elephant hasn’t changed much in a few thousand years, [...]
