Experience Africa by foot and canoe, just like the first explorers, on this safari adventure to undiscovered Zambia. Off the tourist track and home to giant wilderness parks, Zambia is where the Africa of Stanley and Livingstone still survives. In the company of expert guides, we explore the African bush on foot for breathtaking wildlife encounters, canoe the mighty Zambezi River, tour awesome Victoria Falls and thrill to the greatest one-day whitewater raft trip in the world!
Inn and camp highlights: The bush camps range from chalets on the banks of the Luangwa River to tented camps along the Zambezi to the stone-under-thatch construction of the lovely cottages of the Thorntree Lodge - all with private baths except during our wilderness canoeing safari.
