Let’s explore Zambia in 2014 as the country celebrates its 50th year of independence! Robin Pope Safaris has put together a 10 night trip that features Zambia’s key safari destinations. Starting at one of the Natural Wonders of the World, Victoria Falls; going onto the renowned South Luangwa National Park; then onto the mighty Zambezi; ending off with the country’s capital, Lusaka which is rich in culture and history. Zambia is among the most peaceful countries in the world with no civil arrest since Independence. Being named by the World Bank, in 2010, as one of the world's fastest economically reformed countries, Zambia has a lot to offer. What better way to celebrate this peace loving nation’s 50th anniversary than with a taste of its key attractions…

Livingstone is home to one of 7 natural wonders of the world, the Victoria Falls, and offers many opportunities, both adrenaline filled and more sedate, to view this amazing site. There are game viewing opportunities too, with a chance to see the white rhino in Mosi-Oa-Tunya National Park and river trips on the Zambezi River.

The Luangwa Valley, which marks the end of the Great Rift Valley, is one of the last unspoiled wilderness areas and possibly the finest wildlife sanctuary in Africa. This is home of the walking safaris. o Stay at Zambia’s very first safari camp, Nsefu; built in the 1950’s Luangwa River flows into the Zambezi River – just below the Lower Zambezi National Park.

This park, scenically bordered by an impressive escarpment, has excellent game, which can be viewed from either the river or by land. Quietly drifting past a huge elephant feeding is a great experience.
The safari ends with a night in Zambia’s capital, Lusaka. With many cultural and historical aspects in the city, it’s the perfect way to end this celebratory trip. A tour of the city is included that incorporates a cultural village, first President of Zambia’s house, museum and for some souvenirs there is even option of two markets.
