Walking Safari Zambezi National Park
Walking safari
Venturing into the unfenced 57 000 hectare (250 sq mile) Zambezi National Park, this walk is combined with a game drive to a suitable walking area of the park. Whilst following in the footsteps of elephants, guests are able to learn about a variety of aspects of the wildlife in the area, as the Professional Guide shares his/her knowledge and experiences with them. As they walk along scenic trails, participants have the opportunity to encounter a diverse array of wildlife, from majestic elephants and graceful giraffes to elusive antelopes and colorful bird species. The walking safari provides a unique opportunity to connect with nature on a deeper level, as participants learn about the flora, fauna, and ecosystems of the Victoria Falls region.
