Getting around Zambia
By Air
- Lusaka
is the primary international air hub with the main regional services
connecting Johannesburg, Harare and Nairobi. European connections
are provided directly by British Airways, KLM and Air France.
- Mfuwe
and Livingstone both have international status and provide important
internal hubs for domestic and air charter companies (particularly
between Victoria Falls, Kariba, Lilongwe and Maun across the
borders).
- The
reliability of Zambia's air charter companies often surpasses that
of some national carriers in the region. We have no hesitation in
strongly recommending air charters, particularly when accessing the
Luangwa, Kafue and Zambezi regions.

By road
Zambia
has a poor road infrastructure. If you're planning a self-drive safari,
the more remote areas in particular require a 4x4 vehicle and a current
and accurate update on road conditions is essential (a road report from
the previous season is no guarantee that the given route is still
passable) - certain areas should only be tackled in 4x4 convoy fashion.
Footnote: one of the Luangwa Valley
veterans of 35 years, has succeeded in avoiding the Lusaka/Mfuwe drive
for 10 years - that says something!
