Why go on a walking safari?
A walking safari is Africa experienced at its most immediate: following tracks in the sand, pausing to read the signs left by wildlife, and seeing the bush through the eyes of an expert guide. Our walking safaris in Zambia and Zimbabwe are designed for travellers who want to step beyond the game-drive vehicle and feel more connected to the wilderness.
Every walk is led by an experienced walking guide and accompanied by an armed National Parks scout. The pace, route and focus are shaped around the conditions, wildlife and guests in the group, so no two walks are ever the same.
Find the walking safari that suits you
A walking safari is about slowing down and experiencing the African bush from a completely different perspective. Rather than covering long distances in search of big game, you follow fresh tracks, learn to read animal behaviour and discover the smaller details that are easily missed from a safari vehicle.
Every walk is different. Your experienced guide and scout continually assess the wildlife and surroundings, choosing a safe and rewarding route while helping you understand the sights, sounds and scents of the wilderness around you.
A walking safari is ideal for curious, active travellers looking for a more immersive safari experience. You do not need to be an endurance athlete, but you should be comfortable walking on uneven natural terrain, spending several hours outdoors and exploring in warm conditions.
Different walking safari experiences offer different levels of adventure and comfort. Whether you prefer staying at a bush camp or joining a mobile walking safari, we can help you choose an experience that suits your interests, fitness and preferred pace.
Zambia is one of Africa’s most celebrated destinations for walking safaris, with South Luangwa particularly renowned for exploring the wilderness on foot. Walking through this remarkable landscape brings you closer to nature and reveals details, tracks and wildlife behaviour that are often overlooked from a vehicle.
Led by knowledgeable guides and experienced scouts, our Zambia walking safaris combine adventure, wildlife knowledge and time in some of the country’s most beautiful wilderness areas for a genuinely memorable safari experience.
