Zambia, officially known as the Republic of Zambia is a country in eastern Africa. Approximately the size of Texas or France, Zambia is a landlocked country with a total population of over 17 million (in 2017). Bordered by Tanzania to the northeast, Malawi to the east, Mozambique to the southeast, Zimbabwe and Botswana to the south, a narrow strip of Namibia known as the Caprivi Strip to the southwest, Angola to the west, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the northwest. Lusaka, the capital city is located in the south-central part of Zambia, home to about 1.7 million people in 2010, is one of the fastest developing cities in southern Africa.
Zambia is blessed with natural beauty, broad open spaces, colossal water bodies and plenty of wildlife. Known for being a safe and peaceful country, taking a trip there is guaranteed amazement and adventure. South Luangwa National Park is 9059 km2, there are 60 different animal species and over 400 different bird species in the park. The walking safaris that take place in the park are one of the best ways to experience the African adventure. Named after the famous Victorian missionary explorer, Dr. David Livingstone, who explored this area extensively, Livingstone Town was established in 1905.
Because Livingstone Town is so close to Victoria Falls and the Zambezi river, it has now become a base for travelers from around the globe, who want to explore this wonder of the world.
A wide range of activities are possible such as Riverboarding, White water rafting, Canoeing, Horse riding trails, Abseiling, as well as Boat cruises, Walks with lions, Elephant back safaris, Quad bikes riding, Kayaking and tours to the Victoria Falls, Mukuni Cultural Village and the places of interest in Livingstone.
I spent two weeks in Zambia in 2019, firstly in Mubende Village, and then in Lusaka, Livingstone, Victoria Falls. I love the beautiful people, the animals, everything about Zambia an I am looking forward to returning there.
