BUTTERFLY IN AFRICA

Zambia is a large landlocked country in South-Central Africa with the shape of a butterfly. Mostly known for the Victoria Falls, the country is blessed with 17 other magnificent falls, an unmatched proportion of land (almost 30 percent) set aside for nature reserves and national parks, breathtaking landscapes, and a profusion of birds and wildlife. In this raw, pulsating wilderness, the legendary walking safari was born.
Zambia also offers access to remote, undeveloped rural areas where village life can be experienced untouched by masses of tourists. The country is known for its hospitability. Zambians are accommodating people who welcome foreigners with warmth and friendliness. They are eager to interact and share their lives with visitors.



Boasting one of the most established democracies in Africa – and with a relatively stable economy – Zambia is considered one of the safest countries in Africa to visit.
