One of the last places on earth to experience authentic wildlife and cultural experiences.

Zambia, a landlocked country in south-central Africa, is about one-tenth larger than Texas. It is surrounded by Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Namibia.

The country has 73 tribal groupings and several chiefdoms some of which spill over to its neighboring Countries.

Zambia is mostly a plateau that rises to 8,000 ft (2,434 m) in the east. Zambia lies landlocked between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Equator, shaped like a butterfly and covering about 752,610 square kilometers.

The Country got independent on the 24th of October, 1964 from the British rule after the federation of Nyasaland - now Malawi, Southern - now Zimbabwe and Northern Rhodesia - now Zambia.
