What travelers are saying

"I did the EBC trek with Intrepid in September and October. Our group missed the first 3 days of the planned 12 day trek due to bad weather. There was a real fear we would not be able to do the trek at all. Intrepid sorted out additional accommodation and flights once we were able to fly. Our group made it to EBC by missing the 2 acclimation days on the accent and descending in 3 days instead of 4. This was only possible because of the awesome staff (guides and porters) employed by Intrepid and by Intrepid's backroom staff making alternative accommodation and flight arrangements for us."

Zambia Tour Selection Trips

  • Zambia’s dry season (June-October) is the best time to visit, when animals gather at rivers and watering holes to drink.
  • The best big game viewing in the country is in North and South Luangwa national parks.
  • Zambia is the top country in Africa for walking safaris; if you’re adventurous and want a truly memorable experience -- a step above game drives -- look for itineraries that include them.
  • Walking safaris are accompanied by multiple armed and experienced rangers, so safety is not a major issue even in the presence of potentially dangerous animals.
  • Zambia is an excellent birding destination; Lower Zambezi National Park and Blue Lagoon National Park are two of the best places.
  • If you’re looking for the “real Africa” of yesteryear, you can find an authentic wilderness experience in Zambia.
