Points of interest Zambia: Tourism & Monuments

Practical information : Sightseeing Zambia

Timetable

Museums or sites of visits can be opened quite early but never too late, between 8 am and 5 or 6 pm.

To be booked

Victoria Falls tours should be booked in high season, especially if you want to swim in the Devil's Pool above the falls and have lunch on Livingstone Island, a popular expedition with very limited space per day.

Budget & Tips

The museums are generally modest but also very affordable, which makes them a good reason to visit. The safaris are always more interesting with the all-inclusive package than with the optional safaris if you want to follow the rhythm of 2 activities per day (game drive, boat cruise, walking safari, etc.).

Main events

The most important ceremony in Zambia, the Kuomboka is held every year in late March or early April in the historic Barotseland region. When the plains are flooded by the Zambezi River, the Lozi king leaves his flooded winter palace for his summer residence 15 km away, near Mongu.

What's very local

When going on safari, avoid flashy red or fluorescent colors to avoid scaring the animals, especially if you plan to go on walking safari in the bush with rangers. Completely white outfits are also to be avoided, as the animals can spot them from a distance, but also because of the constant dust baths during game drives. Avoid black and dark blue, which absorb heat and attract insects, especially tsetse flies, which are abundant in national parks. Prefer discreet colors that blend in with nature (khaki, brown, beige).
