Zambia er oppkalt etter det lokale ordet for «alles hjerte», er inngangsporten til «ekte Afrika». Det er ingen kystlinje her, men åsene, fjellene, elvene og nasjonalparkene veier mer enn opp for det. Landet er bare på størrelse med den amerikanske staten Texas, men byr på en variert natur og et rikt dyreliv.
Den peanøttformede nasjonen huser en rekke nasjonalparker, noe som gjør det til et toppsted for organiserte safariturer. Nedre Zambezi-, Kafue- og South Luangwa nasjonalparker er de mest besøkte, uten folkemengdene og trafikken til de bedre kjente viltreservatene i Sør-Afrika, slik at du virkelig kan være i ett med naturen og dyrelivet.
Zambezielven, som landet ble oppkalt etter, renner gjennom den vestlige delen før den renner over i de berømte Victoriafallene, som skiller Zambia fra nabolandet Zimbabwe. Det høyeste punktet finner du ved Mafinga Hills, som grenser til Malawi, mens Lusaka er et flott sted å fylle på med Tongakurver, keramikk, tekstiler og treskjæringer. Great East Road går gjennom støvete byer nær grensen til Mosambik. Byen Siavonga er det nærmeste landet har en ferieby, mens Livingstone tilbyr ekstremsport, som rafting, strikkhopp og mikroflyvninger over fossene.
Nshima er en tradisjonell rett i Zambia, som spises med en rekke kjøttgryter, grønnsaker, fisk eller surmelk. De mindre eventyrlystne har mange vestlige alternativer som stekt kylling, burgere og pizza. Øl og annen alkohol er allment tilgjengelig, inkludert Eagle Lager, Zambezi Lager, og maislaget ucwala. Overnattingssteder kommer i alle former, fra eksklusive hoteller til rimelige campingplasser, men jo mindre utviklet området, desto færre valgmuligheter. Å bo i en lokal landsby er en uforglemmelig opplevelse.
Zambia er generelt varmt året rundt - men det er to forskjellige klimasoner i landet, en fuktig subtropisk sone og tropisk våt og tørr sone. Men uansett hvor du er, er det bare to årstider i Zambia: regntiden (november til april) og den tørre årstiden (mai-oktober). Den varmeste måneden i denne delen av verden er oktober, når temperaturene svinger rundt 37ºC. Den beste tiden å reise er en gang mellom mai og august fordi været vil være mest behagelig, og de beste zambiske festivalene foregår i denne perioden.
Høydepunkter
Naturattraksjoner i Zambia er på sitt aller beste. Fra Victoriafossene, et av de nye syv underverkene i verden til Lochinvar nasjonalpark, kjent for det store antallet fuglearter som kan sees til fots, og South Luangwa nasjonalpark i øst det beste stedet for en safari, og huser den største konsentrasjonen av dyreliv i hele Afrika.
Gjennomsnittstemperatur og nedbør for Livingstone
Måleenheter= ºC og mm/måned. Varmeste måned: oktober (26ºC) / Kaldeste måned: april (22ºC) / Våteste måned: januar (175 mm) - Alle verdier basert perioden 1991-2020.
Hvordan er været?
Zambia er varmt året rundt, selv om de forskjellige høydene deler landet inn i to hovedklimatiske regioner; fuktig subtropisk og tropisk vått og tørt. Likevel er det bare to sesonger i Zambia uansett hvor du er. Regntiden er fra november til april og opplever en gjennomsnittstemperatur på 30°C, selv om det noen ganger kan bli så kjølig som 16°C.
Den tørre årstiden er mellom mai og oktober, men denne er delt inn i den kjølige årstiden mellom mai og august og den varme årstiden i september og oktober. Oktober har det varmeste været i året og kan komme opp til brennhete 37°C.
Flom og kraftige tordenvær er normen gjennom hele regntiden, med den største nedbørmengden i nord. I den tørre årstiden er buskebranner vanlig og røyken og lukten gjør dem merkbare. Vann renner i elvene året rundt, så det er aldri et fordampningsproblem, selv om lokalbefolkningen deler året inn i fiske og jakt perioder i den tørre årstiden og oppdrett i den våte perioden.
Beste tiden å besøke Zambia
Det kjølige, tørre været mai til august er den beste tiden å besøke, takket være de utholdelige temperaturene, som er gjennomsnittlig rundt 22°C med lite eller ingen nedbør. Det er også da noen av de beste festivalene finner sted, når Victoriafallene er på sitt mest imponerende og da kan man se godt dyreliv.
September og oktober arrangerer også en stor mengde arrangementer, selv om de kan bli uutholdelig varme. Besøkende som kan håndtere varmen vil oppleve at disse månedene er de beste tidene på året for å nyte safari, ettersom dyrelivet strømmer til vannhull for å kjøle seg ned. I noen områder er dette den dyreste tiden på året å bo i Zambia på grunn av antallet tradisjonelle seremonier som finner sted.
Penger & valuta: Zambias offisielle valuta er zambesiske kwacha (ZMW). Kwacha er tilgjengelig på flyplasser, hoteller, minibanker og vekslingskontorer. Større butikker, hoteller, restauranter og turoperatører aksepterer i økende grad store kredittkort. Minibanker er tilgjengelig over hele landet.

Interessante fakta
Festivaler
Å oppleve en tradisjonell festival eller zambesisk høytid vil garantert være et høydepunkt for enhver ferie. Det er mange stammer som feirer skikker, ritualer, historie og åndelig tro fylt med farger, dans og tromming. Ku-omboka er en av de mest kjente, etterfulgt av Likumbi Lya Mize.

Highlights: The Zambezi is famous for one of the great freshwater game fish - The Tigerfish. Powerful, swift predators Tigerfish are a thrill to catch and require a great deal of fishing skill with a good river specimen weighing over 15 lbs. Bream, or Tilapia, also live in large numbers in the river and although they don’t fight quite as aggressively as the Tiger, a good 5 lb fish will quickly snap light tackle given half the chance. Spinners and lures are the most common method of catching these fish although using light tackle, a fly and a fly-rod is becoming very popular and brings an extra dimension to a very exciting sport.Pick up is at the Day Activity Centre before a drive to one of the launch sites to board the boat and set off to the fishing grounds. The trip includes transfers, tea and coffee, soft drinks, beer and fishing tackle

For the late Victorians, Dr David Livingstone (1813-1873) was one of the great heroes of their era. The "greatest man of his generation", Florence Nightingale called him. He was a household name, recognized as a courageous explorer of Africa, a tireless missionary and a champion of the fight against slavery. Today he is widely remembered. The Livingstone Museum is one of a kind in this area. It contains the most comprehensive memorabilia of Dr. David Livingstone, including authentic maps and diaries, and covers the history of the region from the formation right up to the present day. The Museum also contains Anthropological, Natural History and African Culture sections.
