Zambia in July

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Lower Zambezi National Park is an exciting park to visit at this time of year.

Four of the Big Five call this park their home, with the rhino being absent.

Here, you get to see Nile crocodiles and elephants on the Zambezi River.

In July, you can go on a canoe safari, a walking safari, and a photographic safari, in addition to having spa treatments and taking yoga classes.

The chances of seeing lions and leopards here are highly likely if you’re keen on seeing predator species. On the other hand, wild dogs and hyenas occur occasionally in the park, so it may be a little harder to spot them.

Weather in July

The weather is best in July, and the dry season is at its peak.

Victoria Falls is an excellent location around this time of year, and wildlife is easier to see.

There is generally no rain by this time of year, and it is usually sunny. Opportunities for photography aren’t viable this month since the environment gets dusty and hazy.
