In Zambia, you can engage in thrilling adventure activities such as taking a helicopter flight, going on game drives, visiting Livingstone Island, white water rafting, bungee jumping and more!
A helicopter or microlight aircraft flight in Zambia is sure to be an enthralling experience. On one of these flights, you will have the chance to observe the magnificent Victoria Falls and other nearby attractions from an aerial perspective. You will notice the vast Zambezi River meandering towards the south, with crocodiles and hippos to be seen wallowing in the waters. You will be captivated by the sight of elephants grazing placidly near the waters which spray into the numerous gorges.
Amidst the expanses of the Zambezi River, you will find the absorbing Livingstone Island. Visiting this picturesque island will be an adrenaline-inducing experience as you must make your way through the surging waters to reach it. Livingstone Island happens to be a protected location, with only a limited number of visitors permitted to enter it at one time. During your visit, you will also have the chance to experience the amazing Devil's Pool from which you could also enjoy stunning views.
Your visit to the nation of Zambia would not be complete without experiencing a game drive; one of the best places for such an escapade would be the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. On such a game drive, you will have the opportunity to observe creatures like the white rhino, antelope and buffalo in their native environment. You will also be able to view elephants at close quarters during your drive. You will see that this national park is truly a natural wonderland that will delight those who love nature and wildlife.
Adventure lovers seeking thrills and exhilaration should undoubtedly take the opportunity to go white water rafting on the Zambezi River. You will find that the marvellous scenery, warm waters, abundant sunshine and exciting rapids make this activity rank amongst the world's most outstanding white water rafting experiences. During your rafting adventure, you will make your way through 24 km of rapids and a total drop of no less than 400 feet! An accommodation choice to consider from which you could easily enjoy white-water rafting would be The Royal Livingstone Victoria Falls Zambia Hotel by Anantara.
True adrenaline junkies will be enthralled by the opportunity to go bungee jumping off Victoria Falls Bridge within easy reach of the Royal Livingstone hotel. The bridge is at a height of 111 metres offering an amazing vantage point, while it will test the courage of even the most ardent extreme sports enthusiast. As you take the jump, the mighty Victoria Falls will be behind you with the river surging below, providing a breathtaking backdrop for an exhilarating experience you won't soon forget!
A rather different kind of adventure activity in Zambia would be a canoeing safari that can be enjoyed by the whole family. Such an excursion on the Zambezi River is sure to be an entrancing experience as you will be able to follow the same path as David Livingstone, the renowned explorer. You will find that a leisurely canoeing safari would enable you to relax and admire the picturesque surroundings of this beautiful river as well as give you a chance to spot wildlife and birdlife too.
