Over 30% of Zambia’s land is allocated towards National Parks – wildlife conservation and sustainable tourism are important and many of these areas are very much off the beaten track, pristine and uncrowded. The country shares the world’s largest waterfall, Victoria Falls, with its neighbour Zimbabwe, in the central tourism mecca of Livingstone. The mild climate, wealth of wildlife, good conservation and ecotourism initiatives ensure that Zambia remains a haven for people and animals, plants and biodiversity.

Lusaka is the capital and largest city of Zambia, now becoming known as one of the fastest-developing cities in Southern Africa. Many visitors start or end their Zambia holidays here, or in Livingstone at the edge of the Zambezi and Vic Falls.
