On the north-eastern bank of the Zambezi River in Zambia, Lower Zambezi National Park is one of the country’s premier wildlife-viewing areas – and an excellent choice for your safari holiday. Concentrated on the floodplains, you can come across huge herds of elephants, vast pods of hippos and countless grazing animals. Once the private game reserve of the president of the country, this now a protected area with a small collection of luxury eco-friendly lodges and camps dotted along the Zambezi River – the best place for wildlife watching at the end of a day filled with game drives, walking safaris and boating trips down the river. Just keep in mind that the park essentially ‘shuts up shop’ during the rainy season (roughly December to March) when roads become impassable.
