Private safaris off the beaten track
Landlocked Zambia is a country of exceptional safaris, thrilling activities and wild beauty.
The Southern African nation offers a combination of well-preserved and pristine wildernesses, including Lower Zambezi National Park, as well as nineteen national parks. Norman Carr’s signature ‘walking safaris’, made famous in South Luangwa National Park, are complemented by unique reserves excelling in conservation, such as the successful rhino breeding programme in North Luangwa.
That’s all before you’ve witnessed the magnificence of the Victoria Falls, thrilling wildlife tracking and spectacular bird watching. Or cruising lazily down the Zambezi River looking out for huffing hippos or the flick of a crocodile tail.
Our team’s expertise allows them to bring you the best of Zambia and the most exclusive safari experiences, all the while keeping you in high comfort even in the remotest of wildernesses. We’ll create a trip that is entirely tailor-made to you and your interests, helping you choose the perfect combination of destinations, superior accommodation and remarkable activities, with local guides that make your trip an extraordinary Zambian adventure.

If you are wanting to experience wild Africa at its finest, then Zambia is the perfect destination. The safaris here are often less crowded and an added benefit is easy access to the magnificent Victoria Falls. Do not miss a dip in the Devils Pool or a leisurely sunset river cruise.
