If you’re visiting Zambia, then a wildlife safari has to be on your itinerary, as the country’s natural landscapes and wildlife are too breathtaking to miss. Here are the top National Parks where you can enjoy an intimate adventure to experience nature in all its beauty.
South Luangwa National Park
Located near the Luangwa River, this national park is home to large concentrations of game. As you make your way through the woodland savannah, you’ll encounter a fair share of giraffes, elephants, antelopes, lions, leopards and more.
Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park
If you’re based at hotels like The Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara, then this park is your most convenient option. Despite being Zambia’s smallest national park, visiting it is still one of the best things to do in Zambia, as it features a number of habitats and is home to the iconic Victoria Falls.
Kafue National Park
Spanning roughly the same size as Wales, this is the largest national park in the country and one of the largest on the continent. So it’s no wonder that Kafue National Park is home to over 150 animal species, including elephants, leopards and cheetahs.
Liuwa Plain National Park

Despite being one of the more remote national parks in Zambia, this is the perfect choice if you want to enjoy some quiet time in nature. Featuring broad open plains, the park will really test your patience, as you’ll have to travel long distances for animal sightings.
