ZAMBIA

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.
