Zambia is one of the best destinations in Africa for walking and river safaris, hot springs and waterfalls. This fifth, fully updated edition leads visitors through all the prime attractions — set in their historical and environmental context — from the newly declared Ngonye Falls National Park, through the Sioma Ngwezi National Park to the famous Luangwa Park, host to several unique species and an ideal place for leopard-spotting. It includes advice for the independent traveller: how to bush camp in comfort, survival techniques for canoe encounters with hippos or crocodiles as well as guidance on all-terrain driving. With detailed reviews of lodges, hotels and campsites, plus 51 maps and GPS coordinates, Bradt's Zambia is the essential travel companion for anyone going to this under-explored safari destination. Chris McIntyre is Managing Director of Expert Africa, a tour operator specialising in southern Africa. He is also author of Bradt's Botswana and Namibia, and co-author of Zanzibar, Pemba & Mafia.
