My Zambian Experience... Highs: Victoria Falls (duh); white-water rafting in the Zambezi River; microlight ride. Lows: Mosquitoes; being cold in a tent. Best Moment: Experiencing the Zambezi River on a raft without capsizing. Craziest Moment: When a baboon jumped into the front seat of our van, grabbed an unopened box of crackers and jumped right out with the box in hand. This all took place in a matter of a few seconds. Smells: Smoke from the campfire. Sounds: The Zambezi River rapids; propellers from the microlight; screaming from the bunji jumpers. Sights: Victoria Falls ($20); Zambezi River; elephants; hippos; crocodiles; bridge to Zimbabwe. Tastes: Water from the Zambezi during each rapid we went through; Mosi Lager. Activities: River rafting ($110); microlight ($85 + $20 for the CD of photos); booze cruise at sunset (around $35). Purchases: A male and female wooden mask; a little tribal man. Street Food: Did not see any. Fun Food Finds: Did not see any. Western Companies Out Here: None that I saw. Other General Info... Visa needed? Yes. I got it at the border. Our costs were covered in our tour but I believe it is about $25. Type of currency? Zambian Wallet Friendly? Yes. You can even barter for things you want to buy (they love pens, gum, etc.). Livingstone Airport: $20 departure tax. Things Zambia Is Known For: Victoria Falls; Zambezi River. Religion: Christian. Costs: $225 |
