The Lower Zambezi encompasses the Lower Zambezi National Park and its surrounding valley in southeastern Zambia. On the banks of the Zambezi River, directly opposite Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools National Park, the area promises high-value, exclusive, and small-group safari experiences for UK holidaymakers seeking close-encounter wildlife experiences and to soak up the area’s tranquil river activities.
Highlights include early‑morning canoe trips, guided walking safaris with specialist rangers, game drives, and scenic sunset river cruises. There are large numbers of elephants and buffalo and abundant birdlife – perfect for short, premium wilderness stays.
Proflight’s scheduled seasonal flights serve Jeki/Royal airstrips (1 May–15 Nov); private charters are available outside those dates. Agents can choose to position Lower Zambezi as a 2–4 night premium add‑on to places like Lusaka or Livingstone, or combine it into a multi‑country loop that includes Maun/Botswana. (Note transfer logistics and luggage limits, and remember to advise clients about domestic check‑in times when itineraries include Livingstone immigration stops.)
Agents can upsell by adding private canoe safaris, photo hides, guided bush walks, and river dinner cruises, and emphasise small‑group exclusivity and conservation credentials to attract high‑value travellers. It’s also recommended to book early for peak season. Contact your AirlinePros sales manager for current seat inventory, charter options, and suggested packaged routings.
Durban combines warm beaches and vibrant culture while offering easy access to the KwaZulu‑Natal province’s safari and heritage offerings. Highlights include the Golden Mile beachfront, uShaka Marine World, world‑class surfing, coastal dining, and nearby Zululand reserves (e.g., Hluhluwe‑iMfolozi). Its subtropical climate makes Durban attractive year‑round, especially during Europe’s winter!
With flights connecting Durban to Johannesburg and Cape Town (LIFT), agents can plan 3-5-night city-and-coast itineraries with 2-4-night safari extensions. You can also customise family- and multi-generational trips with golf, culinary, heritage, and cultural tours.
