The Lower Zambezi National Park is in an area of outstanding natural beauty, a haven for wildlife and home to the luxurious Bedouin-style tents, personal butlers and gourmet cuisine of lodges such as Sausage Tree. Closer to Victoria Falls, a handful of stunning riverside properties such as The Royal Livingstone Hotel offer excellent accommodation, sundowner cruises and bird watching. In contrast Tangala, a stunning private house on the Zambezi and Sindabezi, a tiny, secluded island lodge in the middle of the river offer limitless opportunities for adventure and relaxation.
Experiences
-
Kafue National Park
Kafue is roughly the size of Wales and the largest national park in Africa. Its landscapes range from lush grasslands and dense forests in the south to the vast expanse of the Busanga Plains in the north-west.
-
Lower Zambezi National Park
An untamed wilderness fronting the banks of the mighty Zambezi, this park lies opposite the famous Mana Pools Reserve and draws much of its attraction from its relatively undeveloped state.
-
South Luangwa National Park & Shiwa Ngandu
The birthplace of walking safaris, South Luangwa National Park hosts some of Africa’s densest wildlife populations. The Shiwa Ngandu estate offers a glimpse of colonial Africa and every safari activity imaginable.

Victoria Falls
A curtain of water that plummets over basalt cliffs with ferocious energy and power, the falls are not only stunning visually, but provide the backdrop for some of the most exciting adventures.
