When?

• Dry Season (May to October): Perfect for wildlife viewing in Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park. The landscape is less lush, making animals easier to spot.
• Wet Season (November to April): Ideal for witnessing the mighty Victoria Falls in its full glory. However, some roads might be challenging to navigate, but the beauty of the lush landscape more than makes up for it.
• Remarkable timings: Besides the seasons, plan your visit during the 'Kuomboka Festival' in April or the 'Livingstone Cultural & Arts Festival' in September to truly immerse in Zambian culture.
