Zambia is probably not the first destination that you think of when you are considering a holiday. However it is a place that everybody must visit if they ever get the chance too. Now that kenya is halving the cost of it’s Visa’s to £25 for an adult, these holidays will be well worth a visit.
Zambia is undisputedly most famous for the Victoria Falls. In order to really understand the true beauty of the Victoria Falls you need to be there to see it, not to mention it is one of the seven wonders of the world. This majestic waterfall is known to the local people as Mosi-Oa-Tunya, which means “Smoke That Thunders”. When the waters go over the edge of the cliff and hit the bottom of the gorge they bellow upwards in a cloudy mist, like an erupting volcano. Zambia holidays have become more and more popular thanks to these waterfalls.
The sheer amazing sight of these falls is not the only reason to visit them. If you arrive in the September or December months, the water levels will be low enough for you to take a swim. When the waters reach a low level and are only just skimming the top of the cliff edge before they go into the gorge, a safe natural swimming pool appears. Devils Armchair was the decided name for this pool.
There is also a Victoria Falls National Park. A safari experience is on offer at this national park, all year round visitors are more than welcome to come and explore the area. The Park spans about 23 kilometres squared but does have many different kinds of wildlife. This National Park/Safari even has the option for you to walk it, with help from a guide. Instead of having to drive around in the jeep or bus, you get to be at one with nature and the wildlife. Kenya holidays and Tanzania holidays have become a lot more popular recently as well, this is due to the fantastic Safari’s that they offer.
So if you want to go and see some of the most amazing sights in the world, you should consider going to Africa and make your next holiday something different.
