Discover the Untamed Beauty of Zambia

Zambia is graced with some of the world’s most spectacular natural wonders, making it a haven for those on the hunt for adventure. The mighty Victoria Falls, known locally as Mosi-oa-Tunya or 'The Smoke That Thunders', is a sight to behold. Straddling the border with Zimbabwe, these breathtaking falls demonstrate nature’s raw power and beauty. Imagine crafting your custom travel packages to Zambia that include witnessing this marvel up close and even enjoying a heart-stopping bungee jump off the Victoria Falls Bridge!

Engage in Thrilling Safari Experiences

The allure of Zambia is not complete without its legendary safaris. Tours of Zambia’s untamed wilderness allow travellers to immerse themselves in the untouched beauty of its national parks. South Luangwa National Park, renowned for its walking safaris, offers an intimate exploration of nature, where you can observe an array of wildlife including elephants, giraffes, and the elusive leopards in their natural habitat.

Cultural Encounters and Traditions

Zambia is not just about wild landscapes; it’s also a rich cultural tapestry. With over 70 ethnic groups, the country is a mosaic of traditions and cultures waiting to be discovered. During your personalized trip, engage with local communities and experience traditional ceremonies like the Kuomboka, a fascinating event symbolizing the movement of the Lozi King from the flood plains to higher land. Such experiences are the essence of custom travel packages to Zambia, where your understanding of the world deepens as you witness age-old traditions still vibrant today.

Savour the Flavours of Zambia

A culinary journey through Zambia is a feast for the senses. Delight in local flavours like nshima, a staple made from maize flour, often accompanied by delectable relishes such as stews or vegetables. Markets in Lusaka and Livingstone bustle with the aroma of grilling meat and fresh produce, offering an authentic taste of Zambian cuisine. Customized travel packages allow you to explore these sensory delights, perhaps even incorporating cooking classes where you can learn to prepare traditional Zambian dishes.

Practical Tips for Travelling in Zambia

When planning tours of Zambia, keep a few practical tips in mind to ensure a smooth journey. The best time to visit is during the dry season, from May to October, when wildlife sightings are most frequent, and the weather is comfortably cool. Ensure your travel plans include visits to top sites, but also leave room for spontaneous adventures; Zambia is a country that delights in the unexpected.

Consult with a knowledgeable travel advisor to create tailored travel experiences, focusing on safety and the ability to engage deeply with Zambia’s many wonders. Consider custom vacation packages to Zambia that focus not only on the iconic but also the lesser-known gems that make Zambia an adventurer's dream destination.

Explore, Experience, and Engage

Embarking on a journey through Zambia is not just a vacation; it’s an exploration of life itself. From the thunderous roar of Victoria Falls to the tranquillity of a sunset over the savannah, each experience leaves a lasting impression. So, let your wanderlust lead you to Zambia, where custom travel packages allow you to explore the unseen, experience the extraordinary, and engage with the world in a way that standard tours simply cannot offer.

Your adventure is waiting. Plan your personalized journey and discover what it truly means to explore Zambia.

Compared to some other African safari destinations like Kenya or South Africa, Zambia offers a more off-the-beaten-path, less commercialized experience. Its a hidden treasure.

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW

We have used Goway Travel for previous trips and have been very happy with their excellent service. Our last trip to New Zealand and Australia was no exception. Our agent, Lori Mazzono, got tuned into the sort of trip we were hoping to have immediately. The various booking she provided were, without exception, exceptional and exactly what we envisioned, We really don't think we would have changed anything. tBruce Belshaw

Mary was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was incredibly responsive and quick to assist with every update and change my clients made throughout the planning process. Her expertise was invaluable, from recommending the perfect resorts to advising on the best way to travel between the islands. My clients loved every moment of their trip, especially their resort stays and overwater bungalow experiences. As this was their honeymoon, creating a seamless and memorable journey was so important, and Mary exceeded expectations. They rated their experience a 5 out of 5 and could not have been happier. Thank you, Mary, for your outstanding support and attention to detail. I truly appreciated your partnership and would not hesitate to work with you again for future South Pacific Island bookings.

We had an exceptional experience with Goway Travel on our recent trip to Africa. From start to finish, every detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed, which made the entire journey stress-free. The recommendations on where to go and what to do were absolutely fantastic! Each stop felt perfectly curated and exceeded our expectations. It was clear that Goway truly understands the destinations they offer and knows how to create a memorable, well-balanced itinerary. A special thank you to our travel consultant, Bijal, who was outstanding throughout the entire process. Bijal was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and supportive while we prepared for the trip, ensuring that all our questions were answered and that every detail was taken care of. Their guidance made a big difference in building our confidence and excitement leading up to the trip. I would highly recommend Goway Travel to anyone looking for a seamless, expertly planned travel experience. We will definitely be using them again for our future adventures! Harjit C

Elisa planned our trip. We were met at the airport by Paul who drove us to Arusha. Adam, our guide and driver was with us the whole trip and was very knowledgeable about the country and the animals & birds we encountered. Accommodations were excellent, meals were delicious and the Tanzanian people we met at each location were so kind and welcoming. A wonderful trip.pat vickers

We had a wonderful trip to Peru for 11 days organized by Goway. Overall the trip was great, we loved our guides throughout, some of the hotels were truly amazing and it was helpful having everything organized and having a point person to ask questions and check in while we were there. Some main highlights were: 1) Machu Picchu- I am so glad we did two tours, because the weather was perfect for views, but also had an opportunity to see Machu Picchu more in depth with a knowledgeable and friendly guide and had a little extra time in Aguas Calientes to shop, explore and even visit the butterfly garden and do some birdwatching. 2) Cusco especially the Hotel Aranwa Cusco. The hotel was incredible, excellent service, modern updates, it was a true highlight of the trip. Cusco itself was also a highlight, loved our half day tour, plus getting ideas for our guide on what else to see in our free time and where to eat. 3) Lima- Aloft Miraflores was another highlight, very modern, nice pool and the best breakfast out of the hotels we stayed in. The location in Miraflores was also perfect, as there were plenty of restaurants, cafes and attractions nearby. 4) Everyone at Condor was great, from ensuring we had all our documents, tickets and itinerary to even stepping in to get water and agua Florida when we were feeling the altitude sickness the first hours in Cusco. Most of our rides and transfers were very comfortable and made the trip run smooth through all the different locations. I have been telling my friends and family how wonderful the experience with Goway has been for our Peru adventure. Eric Paul Schatzel
