Zambian Safaris
Zambia is dominated by a vast high plateau in southern central Africa, bordered by no less than eight other countries, including Angola with an Atlantic coastline and Mozambique on the Indian Ocean. The high plateau has particular weather patterns with the rainy season arriving in November and lasting through to March; this has led to quite a short safari ‘season’.
The game reserves in Zambia were some of the first to be constituted with what is now known as the South Luangwa National Park created in 1904. It was also where the then traditional hunting safari, was replaced by the photographic model, we see today. Norman Carr, a British conservationist, was the first to offer walking safaris in the South Luangwa in the 1950’s, which continue to this day. The principal reserves today including the two in the Luangwa Valley (north & south) in the east towards Malawi, which are superb for a wide range of wildlife especially leopard, the Kafue in the central region whose Busanga Plains region share many similarities with the wetland regions of Botswana’s Okavango Delta and the Lower Zambezi National Park. Liuwa Plains, on Zambia’s remote western border with Angola, is an important reserve but harder to access.
Zambia must be a country on your safari bucket list.
