Zambia Safaris
At Norman Carr Safaris we are keen that our guests should enjoy their safari experience to the full. There are many different forms that a Zambian safari trip might take, in the pages that follow we will outline some of the different types of safari that we can offer:

Walking Safaris |
|
Undoubtedly our specialty, Norman Carr pioneered the concept of walking safaris back in the 1950’s and the Luangwa Valley today is still regarded as one of the best places to enjoy this, the ultimate safari experience. |

Family Safaris |
|
When travelling with younger members of the family there are special considerations one must make. An African safari can and should be an educational experience as well as being great fun. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing young children absorbing the incredible experiences that surround them in Africa and we delight in helping you to enjoy these experiences. |

Honeymoon Safaris |
|
Africa is becoming a very popular destination for newlyweds. Whether you combine a Zambian safari trip with a romantic beach on the Indian Ocean or treat it as a stand alone holiday, we can put together a honeymoon safari worthy of this special occasion. |

Birding Safaris |
|
With nearly 500 species of bird occurring in Zambia, this is a stunning destination for any ornithologist. The quality of the guides throughout Zambia but especially at Norman Carr Safaris will ensure that you get the most out of your safari experience, whether you’re a first timer or an old Africa hand. |

Emerald Season Safaris |
|
Once regarded as the time in the safari calendar to be avoided, the green season months of January through March are now heralded, by those lucky enough to experience them, as the highlight of the year. Since we started opening remote bushcamps accessed only by boat this is now a very popular time of year in the Luangwa Valley. |

Photographic Safaris |
|
Let our guides use their knowledge of the bush and of photography to manoeuvre you into the best positions. They understand that considerations of light and composition are essential for any photographer. All you will have to do is press the shutter, well almost! |

Special Interest Safaris |
|
There are as many different types of safari as there are animals in the bush. Let us know what it is you are looking to get out of your Zambian safari trip and we will do what we can to make it happen. |
