Day 1: You will be met by your guide on arrival at the airport and transferred to your campsite at the Zambezi Waterfront right on the Zambezi River. Relax after your flight and in the afternoon we explore the Victoria Falls on a guided walk. [D]
Day 2 - 3: We make our way to the shores of Lake Kariba. About 160km downstream of Victoria Falls, Africa’s fourth longest river flows into a vast artificial lake created by one of the world’s largest dams. Explore the area and relax on a boat cruise as the sun sets. [BLD, BLD]
Day 4 – 7: We drive down into the Lower Zambezi Valley and spend three nights camping on the banks of the Zambezi River. Enjoy 3 days canoeing down the Zambezi River, home of the tribal mythical god – Nyami Nyami. The river attracts elephants and other wildlife from the surrounding wilderness. After a day highlighted by bird watching and game viewing, relax on your final evening around a campfire recalling the wonderful memories of a great journey. All meals and soft drinks are included.

Day 8: Today we leave the Lower Zambezi and drive to Lusaka, Zambia’s capital. [BLD]
DAY 9 - 11: Departing from Lusaka at 6h30 we head for the northern part of the Kafue National Park where we’ll camp for 3 nights. This reserve, established in 1924, covers a huge area of wetland and miombo woodland and is a wilderness sanctuary for lion, elephant, leopard, puku, lechwe and many other antelope as well as over 400 species of birds. The Kafue River, which forms part of the eastern boundary of the reserve, is home to hippo and great numbers of crocodiles. The Kafue is a seldom visited area; untamed stretches of wilderness reminiscent of ancient primal Africa. [BLD, BLD, BLD]
DAY 12: This National Park south of Lusaka is situated on the Chunga Lagoon with its abundant birdlife. The wetlands and surrounding floodplains support herds of buffalo, lechwe and zebra and we’ll take full day to explore the area. Our visits bring much-needed funds, which help support, the anti-poaching teams in this area. [BLD]
DAY 13: Today we head back towards Livingstone, where we started our breathtaking adventure through Zambia. [BLD]
DAY 14: After a hearty breakfast, our tour ends. [B]
