Cars 4 Rental Guide To Activities in  Zambia

Safaris: For information on Zambia’s national parks and wildlife reserves, see the Resorts & Excursions section. The usual method of animal watching is from an open-topped Land Rover, but walking and canoeing tours are also available. In general, safaris are limited to six to eight persons per vehicle (with experienced guides provided). As a precaution, no more than six may make up a walking party and the guide will be armed. Nocturnal safaris are also possible. Native wildlife includes buffalo, elephant, antelope, lion, zebra, rhino, hippo and crocodile. Birdwatching enthusiasts may head to Lochinvar, where 400 different species have been recorded.

Adventure sports: Zambia’s centre for adventure sports is Livingstone, whose proximity to the grandiose Victoria Falls ensures a steady increase in the range (and cost) of the thrill-inducing activities now available in the area. In addition to bungee jumping off the 111m- (364ft-) bridge linking Zambia and Zimbabwe across the River Zambezi, enthusiasts can now abseil down the gorge or high-wire across it – the latter involving a gravity-defying trip in a body harness attached to a cable spanning the chasm. Scenic flights in micro-light aircraft offering aerial views of the falls are also available. Whitewater rafting trips on the Zambezi are considered particularly wild. Longer and quieter river trips lasting from 1 to 7 days usually follow the Victoria Falls–Lake Kariba itinerary, with Lake Kariba also offering the possibility to relax for a week on a luxurious houseboat. Rock climbing and hiking are also popular.
