Discover the romance of the hidden jewel of Africa-Zambia.  Begin your new life together with a safari through the wilds of Zambia. Two nights are spent nestled in an open-plan house on the banks of the Zambezi River with a visit to the Victoria Falls.  Fly to the remote Lower Zambezi National Park for a stay under canvas at a deluxe tented camp. Fill your days with relaxation or activity; explore the wilderness on game drives, nature walks, and night drives in areas teeming with diverse species.  Conclude your journey in the wildlife-rich river valley of South Luangwa National Park. Game drives by day and night with expert wildlife guides reveal an astonishing amount of wildlife with regular predator sightings.  At each camp there is plenty of time for R&R (rest and romance) while exploring the wilderness of Zambia.

Enjoy a scenic flight over the romantic Victoria Falls.

DAYS 1-2 :  LIVINGSTONE / VICTORIA FALLS
Arrive at Livingstone Airport where you are met by a local representative for the road transfer to your lodge. Stay in Tongabezis Honeymoon House, set up on a hill with the front completely open, overlooking the mighty Zambezi River. A visit to the spectacular Falls themselves is a must during your stay.  Spend the rest of your days choosing from sunset river cruises, visits to a local village or historic tours of Livingstone town (all included in your stay). Two nights lodging at Tongabezi. [LD on day 1, BLD on day 2]

	Paddle in serenity along the Zambezi.

DAYS 3-5 :  LOWER ZAMBEZI NATIONAL PARK
Morning departure for your flight to Lower Zambezi National Park, an extremely remote area with abundant and varied wildlife. Along the banks of the Zambezi and in ancient oxbow lakes, there are bountiful populations of elephant, lion, buffalo, waterbuck, leopard, hyena, zebra, various gazelle and many bird species. Deep in the park, there is a secluded, intimate safari camp settled comfortably in the deep shade of tall riverside trees.  Resting peacefully on the banks of the Zambezi River, under a grove of evergreen Mahogany trees, Chiawa Camp holds the prime position in the heart of Zambia's Lower Zambezi National Park.  Here, after a thousand-mile journey, the sunlit river spreads out to form broad white sandbanks inhabited by crocodile, hippopotamus, and Sacred ibis. The Lower Zambezi National Park has 75 miles of Zambezi River frontage. Its distinguishing features are the rugged escarpment to the north, the river itself, and its numerous islands, lagoons and floodplains, which attract most of the wildlife. There are approximately 50 mammal species and 400 bird species which thrive in the Park, as well as a wide variety of spectacular trees, grasses and flowers. Visitors to the Park are thus assured of seeing very little human activity. With lion, leopard, vast herds of elephant and buffalo, prolific hippo, gigantic baobab trees and magnificent stands of acacia, the Lower Zambezi National Park and Chiawa Camp have become one of Africa's most exclusive safari destinations. Overnight Chiawa Camp. [BLD]

Begin your life together on the safari of a lifetime.

DAYS 6-8 :  SOUTH LUANGWA NATIONAL PARK
Fly to Mfuwe, gateway to the legendary South Luangwa National Park.  You will be met by a local representative and begin your 1.5 hour drive to the spectacular Puku Ridge Tented Camp.  Your journey to the camp is a game drive and the transfer time is really determined by how much you see along the way. The concentration of game around the Luangwa River and its oxbow lagoons is among the most intense in Africa. Wildlife is abundant with herds of buffalo, elephant, puku, and giraffe dominating. The predator populations are healthy with regular sightings of lion and leopard. The diverse wildlife along the dambo offers great opportunities for photography, whether you choose to explore on foot with a keen-eyed guide, or range further a field in a safari vehicle. Return to camp in the evenings to dine under the stars and surrounded by the night sounds of Africa. Overnight at Puku Ridge Camp. [BLD]

	Gentle nuzzling is typical of wildlife and honeymooners alike.

DAY 9 :  DEPART
A morning charter flight takes you to Lusaka in time to connect with onward international flights or begin an extension to South Africas wine region, Botswana's Okavango Delta or spend some time relaxing on one of the beautiful beaches along the Indian Ocean. [B]
