subject: Zambia Hotels Host Visitors To The real Africa [print this page] If you want to see the real Africa, some say go to Zambia. It has fascinated famous explorers like Dr David Livingstone and has much to offer wildlife enthusiasts who appreciate the great outdoors.
Zambia hotels like the Southern Sun Lusaka attract visitors to the bustling capital city, whether they are there on diplomatic business or en route to an international attraction like the stupendous Victoria Falls. Many tourists plan their holiday around visiting this incredible phenomenon, which Zambia shares with neighbouring Zimbabwe, while factoring in a tour to one of the well-preserved wildlife parks.
Zambia hotels are centrally situated in the capital of this landlocked, southern African country, and located in close proximity to the international airport.
For game viewing, fishing and bird watching, Kafue National Park is highly recommended. Not only is it Zambias oldest park, its also the second largest park in the world, comparable in size with a country like Wales.
The reserve is largely responsible for the survival of the red lechwe, an antelope previously extinct in the area, which now exists in great herds at Kafue. Those eager to see the big cats could see lion, leopard and cheetah while the blue wildebeest, Lichtenstein's hartebeest, buffalo, zebra, reedbuck, oribi, puku and impala are just some of the hooved animals that live in the reserve.
Bird lovers will be in their element, because water birds proliferate around the Itezhi Tezhi Dam, in the southern area of the Kafue River. Youre bound to spot fish eagles, cormorants, spoonbills and goliath heron too.
Youll need to fly there from Zambia hotels or travel by 4x4, and this reserve is good to visit between April and October.
But, if a water safari appeals to you, head for the Lower Zambezi River. Hope for fair weather for the ideal experience and climb into a canoe for a safari of a lifetime with an experienced tour guide. The Lower Zambezi incorporates the area from Kariba Gorge to the Mozambican border ask the concierge at your Zambia hotels to assist you with a booking enquiry if youre not one to plan in advance.
Many people like to shop for keepsakes when they travel to new destinations and the Lusaka markets close to Zambia hotels are the answer. They are always a hive of activity with friendly vendors selling an unbelievable array of goods and crafts.
