Travel to Zambia
When to visit
Zambia’s safari destinations are all very seasonal, and best visited during the dry winter months of May to October. Victoria Falls can be visited throughout the year, but it is most impressive over April to September.
Visas and paperwork
US citizens require a visa. Provided their passport is valid for at least another six months, this can be obtained upon arrival at any international airport or overland border.
Did You Know?
Lower Zambezi is home to the Goba people, pastoralists who fled from their original homeland following the influx of the more militant Matabele in the 1840s. To learn about the traditions and day-to-day life of these welcoming people, drop into Chiawa Cultural Village, a riverside settlement set in a game management area immediately west of the national park.
