Zambia reveals an authentic Africa, untouched by mass tourism. A landlocked country in the heart of the continent, it offers exceptional safaris in little-known parks, the legendary Victoria Falls and unique river experiences on the Zambezi. Itineraries adapt to families as well as nature enthusiasts, in private formula with English-speaking guide or in small groups to share the adventure. Two weeks allow you to grasp the essentials: wildlife, landscapes and authentic human encounters.
