D African Village Experience

An eco-tourism project with a difference has just been launched in the South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. Tourists will be offered the chance to encounter a wide range of wildlife and a great deal more. This project was set up by the local villagers who were suffering from a downturn in the national economy. They decided to raise money themselves to cover the cost of educational and welfare projects.

Tourists will be invited to live the African Village Experience. The tours are led by English speaking villagers, and visitors can choose from activities such as meeting the local healer to taking part in cooking or farming. Visitors are also offered the option of staying the night in the village. What's more, they are encouraged to join in all the local traditions, such as using the left hand to eat with and eating in separate dining areas for males and females.
