Situated in eastern Zambia within the Great Rift Valley, the Luangwa Valley’s protected areas, including South Luangwa National Park, North Luangwa National Park and Luambe National Park, form one of Africa’s most celebrated wildlife regions. The meandering Luangwa River shapes this remote wilderness landscape, with seasonal floodplains and open woodland, creating a haven for diverse wildlife. Visitors can experience world-class game viewing, with opportunities to see elephants, hippos, giraffes, lions, leopards and wild dogs on guided safaris. The region is especially renowned for walking safaris, offering an intimate way to explore the bush. With fewer visitors than many African safari destinations, the Luangwa Valley delivers an authentic and immersive wilderness experience.
