Landlocked Zambia is known for its exciting walking safaris and for one of the world’s most spectacular natural wonders, the Victoria Falls. The lodges situated on the islands in the Zambezi make a tranquil base for relaxing after a demanding safari schedule but if you want the delights of a multi-country beach break, then consider combining Zambia with Malawi. Activities from the golden sand beaches of Lake Malawi include snorkelling, scuba diving and kayaking. Other beach options include Zanzibar, which is reached via Nairobi, and South Africa’s Indian Ocean coast, reached via Johannesburg.
