Your flight to Lusaka introduces you to the charm of Zambia’s bustling capital, founded in 1905 by European settlers. Visit the lions, tigers and elephants at Lusaka’s Munda Wanga Environmental Park and the snakes, crocodiles and chameleons at the Kalimba Reptile Park.
Explore times gone by at the Lusaka National Museum to discover Zambia’s history, witchcraft and contemporary art. Explore the living culture of Lusaka at the lively Soweto Market and the colourful Kabwata Cultural Village with its array of hand-crafted curios.
For a quiet day out, relax in Le Soleil spa, restaurant and gardens or take in the beauty of Nembo Scenic Park’s waterfalls and lakes. Or take a weekend trip out to one of the game reserves and lodges within easy reach of Lusaka.
Locals in Lusaka can’t live without their nshima (ground maize). Try it with sugar for breakfast and with chicken, meat or fish for dinner. Beer is the Lusakan drink of choice, particularly castle, lion, mosi or rhino. |
