Volunteer Work in Zambia
Where explorers wander… and in the past they’ve included names of such repute as the intrepid missionary Dr David Livingstone, and for good reason. Zambia shares with Zimbabwe the privilege of providing a site for the Victoria Falls, one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of the World!” This is where the adrenalin-lover can indulge in the exciting adrenalin activities that take place as a result of these thundering waters. Zambia is also a great destination to see an unbelievable variety of wildlife in the national parks.
Described by many as “the Real Africa”, Zambia is a country of of wide open spaces rich in wildlife, with magnificent forests, wild rivers and wetlands - studded with lakes and impressive waterfalls.
Volunteering in Zambia | Working Holiday
Zambia offers exceptional game viewing, whether you're on a river cruise in the Lower Zambezi National Park, a walking safari through South Luangwa National Park or a game drive in the Kafue, the largest of Zambia’s 19 national parks and which has a significant cheetah population.
Zambia is a landlocked country found between the southern rim of the Democratic Republic of Congo Basin and the Zambezi River. The country has land borders with Tanzania to the northeast, Malawi to the east, Mozambique and Zimbabwe to the southeast, Botswana and Namibia to the south, Angola on the west and Democratic Republic of Congo to the northwest.
