With an abundance of game, spectacular game viewing is guaranteed and sightings of big cats are amongst the best in Africa.   Down in the Lower Zambezi, spend time out on the river boating, canoeing or fishing or enjoy game drives in this beautiful park sandwiched between the rugged and dramatic escarpment and the Zambezi River. This area offers peaceful game viewing in true African wilderness.
