Any trip to Zambia offers an unique experience which is authentically African. Located in the south of the continent, it showcases some of the best safari spots in the world, as well as Victoria Falls – one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. If you want to escape from civilization, then the wide open expanses of Zambia offer numerous ways to do just that. National parks can be found in almost every part of Zambia, but is where you’ll find a wealth of national parkland, the plains of South Luangwa one of the most popular. Expect to encounter free-roaming elephants, giraffes and the hippo hangout along the Luangwa River. Keep your eyes peeled to the skies, and you’ll take in some 400 species of bird life. A visit to Victoria Falls is indescribably awe-inspiring; this cascading curtain of water plunges into the Zambezi River from over 100 m high. To take in a truly special view of the tumbling waters, Knife Edge Bridge provides an unobstructed vista over the main falls as well as the boiling point where the river turns and heads towards a gorge. Zambia offers accommodation to suit all needs, from guest houses in Livingston to safari lodges within the national parks.

Guest review
It's a very new and beautifully finished hotel with incredibly friendly staff. There is one pool near the garden which is very refreshing and a pool on the roof near the spa which is quite hot.
I heard none of the neighbours during the night and the beds are quite firm which I personally find very comfortable I would certainly recommend staying here.

Featuring 2 restaurants and 2 outdoor pools, Latitude 15 degrees offers luxury accommodation in Lusaka.
Guest review
It was a great stay, the place is really beautiful and the service outstanding! The only thing was that the pool wasn’t really for swimming, there were no sunbeds around which we would have liked in the hot afternoons.

I had a wonderful stay at Kamunjila Lodge in Zambia—such a peaceful and welcoming place. The garden is lush and beautifully kept, creating a true little oasis. The room was spacious, clean, and full of charm. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making me feel right at home. I would absolutely come back and recommend it to anyone visiting Livingstone!

Located in Livingstone, 3.8 km from Livingstone Reptile Park, Royal Livingstone Hotel by Anantara has rooms with free WiFi access.
Guest review
In a beautiful location next to the Zambezi river. Zebras and giraffes wandering the grounds. Hotel residents have free access to the national park where you can walk along a path with excellent view of Victoria falls. We stayed in February and the falls on the Zambia side were very impressive and although it was misty this didn’t obscure the views.

Guest review
We loved everything about this hotel. Everything is fresh, clean and new. The rooms had everything we needed in them, including an iron and ironing board. Also had lots of plugs and USBs for us to use. The bed and bedding was super comfortable--we really like how they invested money in having more higher end bedding and great beds. The breakfast offered so many great and delicious options for everyone--likely one of the best breakfasts we've ever had in a hotel in Lusaka. We even ate mutiple dinners in the restaurant--all was good. The front desk staff and restaurant staff were very friendly and accommodating. This is our new favorite hotel in Lusaka...hopefully they won't raise the price too much for us to enjoy it again in the future.

The location is perfect. Just along the T4 road making it an ideal and perfect stopover spot after the long drive en route to South Luangwa. The rooms were clean, the staff was friendly and very welcoming.

AVANI Victoria Falls Resort is located in Livingstone and features an outdoor swimming pool. The property features a garden, as well as a terrace.
Guest review
Avani Victoria Falls Resort didn't disappoint as I stayed here 12 years ago and it is still an amazing place to stay as the Victoria Falls is right behind the resort and you can go there as many times as you like for free staying at this place where as on the Zimbabwe side you have to pay and can only go once. Loved the zebras just wondering about the resort. Rooms are clean and bright, breakfast plenty to choose from and very friendly staff we all loved our stay.
