Zambia is home of the Victoria Falls and many other magnificent waterfalls, spectacular wildlife, superb safaris, great adventures, rich culture and friendly people.
Zambia is acknowledged as one of the safest countries in the world to visit, where people live in peace and harmony.
Described as ‘Mosi-oa-Tunya’ by the ‘Kololo tribe’ in the 1800’s - ‘the Smoke that Thunders’ and in more modern terms as ‘the greatest known curtain of falling water’, Victoria Falls are a spectacular sight of aweinspiring beauty and grandeur on the Zambezi River, bordering Zambia and Zimbabwe.
Columns of spray can be seen from miles away as 546 million cubic meters of water per minute plummet over the edge. There is path along the edge of the forest for those brave enough, to feel the tremendous spray with an unparalleled series of views of the Falls.
Blessed with lush vegetation, abundant water and a real commitment to preserving her wilderness, Zambia has maintained it’s untouched aura to this day. A truly magical country.
