Safari in Mosi-oa-Tunya NP

Experience the wonders of Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park just outside Livingstone, Zambia. As the second-smallest national park in the country, it offers a unique blend of wildlife and natural beauty. Situated along the borders of Livingstone town, farmlands, and the Zambezi River, this park has been a protected area since 1972, originally established as a wildlife reserve. Today, it boasts an array of captivating species that call it home.

Wildlife

During your safari adventure, you'll encounter a diverse range of animals, including warthogs, impalas, waterbucks, greater kudus, chacma baboons, blue wildebeests, African buffaloes, plains zebras, bushbucks, southern giraffes, and many more. Notably, the park is the exclusive habitat for Zambia's only white rhino population.

While exploring the park, you may even catch sight of these magnificent white rhinos, although other species are frequently spotted during the safari drive. For those fascinated by these gentle giants, we offer special rhino tracking experiences. It's important to note that the park lacks resident predators, although tracks of spotted hyenas have been spotted on occasion. The landscape within Mosi-oa-Tunya NP encompasses various habitats, such as riverine forests, mopane woodlands, and grasslands, fostering a rich diversity of bird species. Along the river, you'll be captivated by the vibrant kingfishers, the lively spurfowls, Zambia's emblematic African fish eagle, and the striking African hoopoe.

History

As part of the experience, we'll lead you to an old graveyard within the park where the first settlers from Old Drift village rest in peace. Discover the intriguing history of the area's initial white settlement.
