Among the grass in the savannas and on the treetops in Zambia live some of the most exotic wildlife in the world. If you are prepared for some unforgettable encounters with the wilderness, let’s learn a little more about what to expect here.
When to visit
The best opportunities for game viewing are available in the months of September and October when the animals gather at the sources of water. However, the weather is scorching. If you wish to visit when climes are cooler, June and August would be a better choice.
Don’t miss out on the Zambezi
Nature brings out the wild side of Zambia at its best at the Zambezi River in Livingstone. You can also opt for a stay at a Livingstone hotel. Victoria Falls is situated close by as well with its stunning veil of water. Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara is an option to consider if you plan on spending most of your time doing activities around here.
