The tranquil waters of the Zambezi are so inviting and what better way to enjoy them than to cruise upon it. We took the sunset cruise and well worth it (apart from the very annoying loud ladies that boarded along with us, always a risk when taking a tourist option) .
To sit supping a sundowner aboard a boat whilst drifting down the Zambezi has to be a highlight in ones life, hippo call, elephant bathe and Africa slips past at it's usual rate of casual, quiet awareness. It is a stunningly beautiful place to be, life is natural and undisturbed in the main. Of course there is the odd tourist boat but not a mass of them intruding into this haven just enough that it helps the country and it's people to survive.

I would suggest that you look into Bongwe Safaris as an affordable safari option in Zambia. Very affordable and they dont use tents so you will be in a proper chalet with bathroom and hot water ensuite.
My girlfriend and I used them last season and we had a fantastic time. I preferred kafue to Lower Zambezi but it all depends on what you are looking for. We did both parks but I could have stayed in Kafue for longer. It was very quiet and we didnt see anyone else. Lower Zambezi was a bit busier but still nice. Plenty of elephants! In Kafue we saw lots of leopard and lion. We couldnt find a cheetah, but did see their tracks.

El tren atrae a la gente no sólo para comprar y vender sus productos sino que hay muchos que van a pasear , a ver lo que pasa , a saludar a los conocidos... , es una pequeña fiesta que se repite cuatro veces todas las semanas (dos del tren de ida y dos del que vuelve ) y se llenan las estaciones de gente que dan un color y una alegría inolvidable
The train attracts people not only to buy and sell their products but there are many who go for a walk , to see what happens, to meet friends ... , Is a small party that is repeated four times each week (two when the train goes in one direction and two when returns) and the stations fill of people that give an unforgetable color and joy

El tren para poco tiempo en las estaciones y hay que aprovechar para vender todos los productos que tienen .
Las prisas , el colorido , los sonidos , los olores ... de estos momentos nunca se olvidarán
The train stops a short time in the station and they must sell all the products they have.
The rush, the color, the sounds, the smells ... of these moments we will never forget

La gente vende cuando llega el tren los productos que se cultivan en esa zona y los plátanos son muy frecuentes .
Puedes comprar desde un plátano para disfrutarlo o te puedes llevar una penca completa
People sell when the train arrives to the station the crops grown in that area and bananas are very common.
You can buy from one banana to enjoy it or you can take a leaf complete

Luangwa river is a long river, passing through national parks. The wildlife is also good outside the national parks, along the river. There is one place to stay on the west bank of the Luangwa River, close to the Great East Road.

My daughter booked us on the river safari and I did not know that I could have this much fun at my age! I thoroughly enjoyed the evening going thru the rampants, getting wet and having sundowner amongst the crocodiles, birds, elephants and others.

There are the most fantastic Boabab trees in Zambia. The locals believed that they were not allowed to touch it or hurt it in anyway as harm would come to them and their families.
