Questions

Explore questions.

When is the best time to visit Zambia?

May to October (dry season) is best for wildlife in South Luangwa, Lower Zambezi and Kafue. Victoria Falls is at its fullest from about February to May, and August to January brings lower water, clearer views and Devil's Pool. November to April is green season: lush, quieter and good value.

Do I need a visa?

It depends on your nationality, and rules change. Check with the Zambia Department of Immigration before you travel. Many visitors use the KAZA Univisa, which covers Zambia and Zimbabwe and day trips into Botswana through Kazungula.

Do you run the safari activities yourselves?

No. Game drives, boat trips and adventure activities are run by licensed lodges and operators under their own safety rules. We arrange the transport, connect the bookings and give you one written price.

Do I need to pay a deposit?

For single transfers and day hire, payment terms are on your quote. Multi-day tours, events and anything that needs us to commit lodges or other suppliers need a deposit, with the balance date stated in writing.
