Sacred. Mysterious. Remote. Beautiful. Nestled away in south-central Africa lies one of our continent’s most unrivalled gems: Northern Zambia. Cascading rivers, exquisite waterfalls, and beautiful lakes dominate this remote, uncommercial piece of the planet. Truly a water wonderland (an estimated 30% of all fresh water in Africa sprouts from Zambia’s mainly Northern provinces), it is home to the Chambeshi River (headwaters of the mighty Congo River), Lake Bangweulu, Lake Mweru and Lake Tanganyika. It is against this enchanting backdrop that our two-week Chasing Waterfalls photography adventure plays out!
This all-women, photography expedition starts in the capital, Lusaka, and finishes at Victora Falls (a World Heritage Site known as Mosi-Oa-Tunya or ‘The Smoke that Thunders’).Fully submerged in Mama Africa’s territory, you must march to her ancient drumbeats! Come prepared for an adventure – with bumpy dirt roads, amazing wildlife, breathtaking scenery, and a lifetime of memories.
Our route takes us through far-flung, traditional villages and national parks famed for their incredible game sitings. Travelling with two vehicles and a few private charters, our small group will be hosted by highly experienced African adventurer and humanitarian, Carla Geyser, and keen photographer and hiking guide, Fiona McLean, who will provide daily briefings on the regions visited and routes and roads ahead.
Some of the extraordinary experiences you can look forward to as part of this group of female solo eco-travellers includes:

Today we are heading to Mutinondo Wilderness, stopping to visit Kundalila Falls en route. The top of Kundalila Falls offers one of the most spectacular views over the vast Luangwa Valley and there is a
delightful natural pool famed for its wildflowers at the foot. The name means ‘cooing or crying dove’ in Bemba (and you’ll hear many bird sounds in this tranquil setting). This waterfall is an official Zambian Natural Monument.
Mutinondo Wilderness is a privately owned, hidden gem on the plateau located 30m west of the Luangwa Valley in northern Zambia. It boasts 10 500ha of magnificent bush and is idyllic for nature lovers and rustic travellers with over 1700 plant species identified (1632 of which are published in a photographic guide based on the flora of Mutinondo).

Kapishya Hot Springs is run by Shiwa Safaris – a family business started in 1980 by John and Lorna Harvey and continued by their son Mark and his wife Mell. Mark is the grandson of legendary Stewart Gore-Browne who, after serving in the First World War, moved to the then Northern Rhodesia and built an enormous English manor house, known as the Shiwa House (also known as The Africa House after the historical novel of the same title). Our second day will be spent exploring the estate and a tour of the manor house.

DAY SEVEN & EIGHT: Mpulungu
Today we head further North to Mpulungu. We will leave our vehicles here and the lodge will collect us and transfer us via boat. Situated close to the border, with Tanzania on the Eastern shores of Lake Tanganyika, Kalambo Falls Lodge is a timeless sanctuary.
With intriguing décor that combines African artefacts and European antiques, Kalambo Falls Lodge is a celebration of diversity, capturing the wealth of Zambia’s history. You would be hard-pressed to find a more exclusive and secluded location on the shores of Lake Tanganyika. Built as a stone fortress, the lodge is comprised of various materials from the land, blending seamlessly with the surrounding forest and natural environment.
On our second day, we will have a guided hike to the falls (two hours each way) and enjoy a sunset boat cruise on Lake Tanganyika. Kalambo Falls is Africa’s second-highest single-drop waterfall and the twelfth highest in the world. With a 221m single drop into the gorge below, Kalambo Falls is twice the height of Victoria Falls. The climb from the lake is steep, but rewarding, with spectacular views from the escarpment. From viewpoints near the top of the falls you can see the Kalambo River plummeting over the cliffs and into the deep gorge below, before winding its way to Lake Tanganyika.
The area around Kalambo Falls is considered an important archaeological site, with continuous human occupation spanning over 250 000 years. Kalambo Falls is on the list to be recognised as a protected World Heritage site. We should be back for lunch and a relaxing afternoon.
The less energetic can spend the day relaxing on the shores -with its exceptional scenery and unique setting, Kalambo Falls Lodge is a truly enchanting haven where nature captures your soul.

Zikomo Safari is in Zambia, across the river from South Luangwa National Park and is set amidst an ancient valley filled with diverse African wildlife. This peaceful eco-lodge in the African bush offers spacious accommodations with comfortable hand-crafted chalets and an exclusive private house. Zikomo Safari Camp is situated under an enormous canopy of trees on the banks of the Luangwa River, and its placement in the isolated Nsefu sector allows us access to one of the least crowded, wildlife-rich areas in the world.

We will be collected and transferred to Victoria Falls where we will spend our final two nights exploring Victoria Falls town.
We will be staying at Pioneers – a new gem in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe – which is a short 2.5km from the magical Victoria Falls, in a peaceful residential suburb. The nostalgic era of the pioneer explorers has been perfectly blended with modern amenities to meet all the requirements of today’s travellers, and the property is exclusively reserved for residents, ensuring privacy.
