Safpar offers a full range of activities and accommodation options to suit backpackers or "deluxe travellers" in both Victoria Falls and in the lower Zambezi Valley. 

So whether you're just interested in a whitewater rafting trip over a weekend or looking for a full combination of lodging and activities over a two-week long safari then we have something for you.

Safaris and adventure trips

The lower Zambezi is one of Southern Africa's prime safari destinations - remote, wild and teeming with big game and birdlife.  In addition to traditional lodge based safaris at Kayila Lodge and Mwambashi River Lodge from which we offer walking safaris we also offer two unmatched canoe safaris on the lower Zambezi River:

  • The Great Zambezi Trail: a 3 night deluxe canoe safari that combines the comfort of our lodges and the wild side of the Zambezi River
  • The Island Trail: a 3 night full participation canoe safari using islands on the lower Zambezi for overnight stops - regarded as one of the best safari options in Africa

SafPar's highly qualified guides and well developed safari infrastructure enables us to offer customised safaris to wildlife photographers, birders and sports anglers. 

Our close association with other leading safari operators in Southern Africa enables us to combine the additional variety found in the Luangwa Valley, the Kafue National Park, Matusadona and Mana Pools National Parks, Hwange, Chobe and the Okavango with our Zambezi safaris.  [...find out more about safaris elsewhere in Southern Africa]
