Bradt Guides Zambia
Bradt Guides Zambia is the most comprehensive guide to Zambia. Zambia is one of the best destinations in Africa for walking and river safaris, hot springs and waterfalls. This fifth, fully updated edition leads visitors through all the prime attractions. They are set in their historical and environmental contex. It covers from the newly declared Ngonye Falls National Park, through the Sioma Ngwezi National Park to the famous Luangwa Park. This area is host to several unique species and an ideal place for leopard-spotting.
Zambia, in southern Africa, is a landlocked country of rugged terrain and diverse wildlife, with many parks and safari areas. The country is commonly regarded as one of the most beautiful, friendly, diverse and unspoilt countries on the entire African continent. On its border with Zimbabwe is famed Victoria Falls, indigenously called Mosi-oa-Tunya, or “Smoke That Thunders”, plunging a misty 108m into narrow Batoka Gorge. Spanning the Zambezi River just below the falls is Victoria Falls Bridge, a spectacular viewpoint.
It includes advice for the independent traveller. You will learn how to bush camp in comfort, survival techniques for canoe encounters with hippos or crocodiles as well as guidance on all-terrain driving. Furthermore, it includes detailed reviews of lodges, hotels and campsites, plus 51 maps and GPS coordinates. Moreover, Bradt’s Zambia is the essential travel companion for anyone going to this under-explored safari destination.
