With Zambia's five-star travel packages, every traveller is promised comfort, adventure, and a deep dive into nature's wonders.

Experience the Majesty of Victoria Falls

Among the myriad of tours of Zambia, the crown jewel undoubtedly remains the thundering Victoria Falls, locally known as "Mosi-oa-Tunya" or "The Smoke That Thunders." This natural wonder is a mesmerising spectacle of roaring water and misty rainbows—a scene that captivates the senses. Relish a unique perspective of the falls with helicopter tours that provide bird's-eye views, offering a thrilling luxury experience reminiscent of a scene from the "Out of Africa" saga.

Explore Zambia's Lush National Parks

For wildlife enthusiasts, Zambia luxury trips must include a journey through its sprawling national parks. South Luangwa National Park, renowned for its walking safaris, invites guests to experience the thrill of tracking wildlife on foot—a concept pioneered right here. Imagine being at one with nature as you traverse the terrain where lions, leopards, and scores of elephants roam freely. Expert guides ensure each encounter is not only safe but also educational and exhilarating.

Kafue National Park

Venture to Kafue, the country’s largest and oldest national park. Less frequented by tourists, it offers an exclusive retreat into the wild, where open savannahs and lush woodlands paint a backdrop for spotting its famed lions and African wild dogs. Zambia five-star travel packages often include bespoke itineraries to this park, ensuring a private and personalized experience.

Engage with Zambia’s Cultural Richness

Beyond the wildlife, Zambia boasts a rich cultural tapestry. The vibrant traditions and warm hospitality of the Zambian people provide an enriching cultural immersion. Participate in a traditional ceremony or visit local markets to truly appreciate the local way of life. The annual Kuomboka ceremony, a majestic spectacle of royal barge procession along the Zambezi River, is a cultural highlight not to be missed.

Indulge in Five-Star Lodgings

Zambia doesn’t just offer adventures in the wild; it seamlessly combines with the elegance of modern comforts. Luxury accommodations range from serene riverside lodges to opulent safari camps where the attention to detail is remarkable. Consider lodgings that offer infinity pools overlooking the plains and gourmet dinners under the African night sky, enhancing the allure of Zambia’s luxury trips.

Exquisite Culinary Experiences

No trip is complete without indulging in the unique flavours of Zambian cuisine. Delight in local dishes such as Nshima, a staple served with an array of relishes, or taste the bream and tilapia fresh from the Zambezi. Luxury packages frequently offer private dining options that blend international culinary styles with local ingredients, ensuring a gourmet experience you’ll savour long after your journey ends.

Uncover Hidden Gems

While most tours spotlight Victoria Falls and the storied national parks, Zambia's hidden gems equally captivate. Lake Kariba, the world’s largest man-made lake, offers tranquil waters perfect for a leisurely houseboat cruise or fishing expedition. Meanwhile, the mystical Mfuwe Lodge’s bush dinners provide a rare dining experience amid the wilderness, often accompanied by curious elephants wandering through the lodge grounds.

Zambia invites you on a journey beyond the ordinary—a haven for adventure seekers, culture lovers, and those yearning for a touch of luxury. The country’s exceptional blend of unspoiled landscapes, rich cultures, and magnificent wildlife makes it an unparalleled African destination. Whether you opt for the accessible comfort of Zambia five-star travel packages or the bespoke freedom of personalized tours of Zambia, this captivating land promises memories that will stay with you forever. Explore more and let Zambia’s wonders unfold before you, offering an unforgettable luxury travel experience.

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.

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC

My daughter and I had a wonderful 2 weeks in New Zealand! The country is so beautiful and the people so friendly. Our destination specialist did a great job with planning and organizing the itinerary, choosing our hotels, and organizing transportation. The hotels were absolutely beautiful and we had great views. We felt right at home and found all of the staff to be friendly and accommodating. There were no issues with our itinerary and our excursions we were always on the list. Our transportation was always ready and waiting for us. We want to thank Goway Travel for their hard work and patience with us in planning this trip. Any changes that needed to be made were communicated timely. We also want to thank you for the beautiful weather during the entire 2 weeks it was perfect every day 😀. It was a memorable trip that we will never forget and we will think of Goway when we plan our next adventure. Because it was not just a vacation; it was an adventure!Connie Wenhardt

Brigitta Fuller is Amazing! She was my group coordinator. She understood the assignment and all the nuances I was trying to achieve. The itinerary she curated was fantastic. If you want someone who truly cares about her group and what they are trying to achieve. I will always reach out to Brigitta first for Europe groups. Kathryn Walker

My clients had a wonderful time on their trip to Easter Island. They were very pleased with the Hare Nua Hotel Boutique and especially noted the warmth and hospitality of the hotel staff as well as their excellent breakfasts. Jaime Vargas-Hendandez was an exceptionally gracious and knowledgeable agent, who went out of his way to ensure that my clients had the best possible experience. I will definitely contact him for future bookings and will recommend him to my colleagues.Alethea Kardas
