View Profile

Absolute Zambia Safaris is a Zambia-based, owner-managed travel and safari company. We founded the company after extensive travel across Zambia's beautiful country. We have developed a passion for Zambia and Africa as a result of multiple visits to different African countries, and we have decided to share our love, passion, and experience with other travellers.
We specialize in bespoke and private guided safaris in Zambia and Southern Africa, including Malawi, Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. We are your agent during the planning and execution of your custom safari trip to Zambia and beyond, and we are fully autonomous and self-sufficient. That is why we do not direct you to a particular place.
Our main objective is to create a safari that meets your needs, suits your budget, and piques your interest. We cater to a wide range of tastes, interests, and budgets. Absolute Zambia Safaris offers a variety of safaris, including exclusive fly-in safaris, honeymoon safaris, family safaris, photographic safaris, canoeing safaris, private-guided safaris, self-drive safaris, and camping safaris. Absolute Zambia Safaris is dedicated to creating your dream vacation in Zambia and beyond, regardless of your desires or budget.
