In the afternoon you will join a safari before dinner under the stars.

DAYS 6 – 8: SAFARI IN LOWER ZAMBEZI

By striving for safari activities with so little impact on nature as possible, one has managed to preserve one of the most beautiful wildernesses in southern Africa as it has always been. Lush, green and with a lively wildlife. Along the Zambezi River you often see large flocks of elephants that cool in the water, and buffaloes and antelopes that "jump" between the small islands in the river. There are also good opportunities to see both lions and leopards. Of activities, you can choose between safari in open safari cars, sliding along the river banks in the canoe, safari on foot or by boat. A good variety of this ensures you safari experiences for life!

DAY 9: DEPARTURE

There will be one last morning safari and breakfast before you fly back to Lusaka. It is time to leave, but the journey can be extended, for example, with relaxing days on a beach in Mozambique.
