Rainy Season

The dry season, from May to October, is the best time to visit Zambia, offering excellent wildlife viewing as animals congregate around rivers and waterholes. For Victoria Falls, March to May sees the waterfall at its most dramatic after the rainy season. However, October and November are great for exploring the falls up close as the water levels drop. Rainy season (November to April) brings lush greenery and migratory birds, ideal for birdwatching but less optimal for wildlife spotting.

Add Zambia to your life’s story

What to bring on your safari?

Above all, bring your curiosity, a sense of adventure, and plenty of storage space for photographs! For comfort on safari, opt for casual clothing that’s easy to wash and wear, with muted colours being ideal for blending into the surroundings during game drives. Since early morning and late afternoon drives can be chilly (especially in winter), dressing in layers is recommended to accommodate warmer midday temperatures.

Recommended safari packing list for Zambia:

  • Clothing in khaki, green, beige, or other neutral shades

  • Long-sleeved shirts (to protect from the sun and mosquitoes)

  • T-shirts

  • Shorts or a light skirt

  • Jeans or safari trousers for cooler days/evenings

  • Jackets or sweaters for chilly early mornings and late afternoons

  • A lightweight waterproof jacket for possible rain

  • Swim or beachwear

  • Comfortable walking shoes

  • Sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, insect repellent, moisturizer, and lip balm

  • Binoculars and camera equipment

If you’re taking a small aircraft, be aware that luggage allowances typically cap at 15 kg (33 lbs) total, including hand luggage. Most lodges and camps do offer same-day laundry service.
