ZambiaAway is a sub-section of AfricaAway, itself a branch of the highly regarded tour operator, The Away Company, noted for quality travel in both Africa and Spain.
Unlike many other tour operators and agents, we are an independent, privately-owned company, with no vested interest in working with any particular lodge or camp. Hence we are free to construct your itinerary in a totally objective manner, choosing only those destinations that we believe will best suit your personal aspirations. We understand your dream - we understand that a Zambian safari, for many of our guests, is a once in a lifetime adventure. We therefore go to great lengths to plan the smallest details ensuring the highest quality experience for each and every one of our guests.
A comprehensive guide to the wide variety of exciting activities you can get up to while on safari in Zambia, and information on our specialist safaris.
For all the information on the lodges, camps and hotels where you will actually stay, including photos, prices, itineraries and reviews.
For any other questions you may have, including information on what to take on safari, health precautions, when to travel and more.
Contact us by 'phone, email or post. Our experts are on hand to provide advice on all safari matters, no matter how trivial. Getting in touch is the best way to get the information you need.
There is a lot of information on this website about all the lodges, parks, activities and itinerary possibilities that are involved with a safari in Zambia. That is why we have created the "My Safari" tool, which allows you to add your favourites to a wish list when planning your safari and browsing the site. When you are happy with your choices you can then email the list to us for help putting your itinerary together or to friends and family to share your ideas - and the list will be saved for you for when you return to the ZambiaAway website.

Many people nowadays are accustomed to booking the various components of their holiday - flights, accommodation and so on - directly over the internet. However this is probably not a good idea in Africa, where internal flights and local ground transport need to be arranged, in addition to a possibly quite complex itinerary involving a number of accommodation providers. ZambiaAway pledges that, if booking through us, the cost that you will pay is no more than it would have been if you had indeed booked each element directly with the provider concerned - we derive our income solely from the conventional agents' commission that is made available to us.
Unusually among major safari tour operators, ZambiaAway offers the widest possible range of safari accommodation and pricing. This means that we can design a wonderful and worthwhile wildlife experience to suit virtually any budget. Top quality all-inclusive safari accommodation starts at around £100 per person per night, ranging to £500 per person per night for the most exclusive and luxurious lodges. Internal flights do add to the cost, but in general a budget of around £3,000 will get you a good quality 7 or 8 night safari for 2 people sharing, excluding international flights. You can spend less than that and you can certainly spend more! Adding a beach holiday to your safari can help reduce costs because, although more flying is involved, beach hotels are generally cheaper than safari lodges as they do not include all the game-viewing activities. For more information on planning your budget, and good options for affordable safaris please contact us on 0121 472 1541.
For your financial protection, we are financially bonded both through our membership of the Travel Trust Association (Membership No. R1236) and as a result of our ATOL Bonding (Licence No. T7147). Your money is kept in a trust account until you return from your holiday, so if anything happens to us or to your suppliers your money is safe.
