Zambia Safari Q&A
Gemma our Safari Specialist
How long should I do a Zambia safari?
The answer to this question completely depends on what type of safari experiences you would like to combine. Generally speaking, I would recommend around 6 or 7 days on safari in Zambia, which I would break down between two safari camps (3 or 4 nights in each) or two different destinations. If you are an experienced safari traveler, I would recommend longer if you can.
Is Zambia good for safaris?
Although it is not one of the most popular safari destinations, it is a truly fantastic country for wildlife experiences. Zambia has the highest number of leopard populations on the continent. The South Luangwa park and valley is home to Zambia’s largest lion population and second-largest wild dog population. While the resident wildlife in Zambia is varied, sightings of big cats, elephants, buffalos, and hippo are particularly good across the country.
Which safari accommodation should I stay in?
The safari accommodation in Zambia is a lot more ‘authentic’ than other destinations. The majority of safari camps are canvassed tents, with modern but basic amenities. The main draw of these tented camps is that they allow you to become closer to the wildlife, and connect to nature. You will often hear animals throughout the night outside your tent – be it lions roaring, hyenas laughing, or hippos grunting.
When should I do my Zambia safari?
The best time of year to visit Zambia for safari is between the June to October period. This takes full advantage of the dry season, with dry, warm and clear weather conditions on offer. Because there is a limited time to enjoy a luxury Zambia safari, availability can fill up quickly so I would recommend trying to book your safari anywhere from 9-12 months beforehand.
