Jewels in the crown of this spectacular array of protected areas are the 15,000 km2 Okavango Delta, an explosion of green and blue in parched landscape – the world’s largest inland delta, and the awe inspiring tumbling cataracts of the Victoria Falls, a World Heritage Site and one of the seven natural wonders of the world.

Enhancing the wealth of wildlife and the array of beautiful landscapes is a bevy of diverse cultures offering tourists an outstandingly varied experience of regional lifestyle, heritage, arts and crafts, language, music and cuisine.
Too vast to describe with any accuracy, the sheer scope of this park bewilders the mind with a range of experiences, from ‘the smoke that thunders’ at Victoria Falls, to the ‘great river’ Zambezi.
The KAZA TFCA offers some of Africa’s best game viewing. This huge area, much of which is a vast and beautiful wilderness of deserts, savannas and endless marshes, is a safari connoisseur’s dream destination. Allow yourself sufficient time to explore the region by 4×4, mokoro (traditional canoe) and to relax in superlative accommodation.
In general, health risks for most tourists are low provided that you stick to established routes and accommodation facilities. However it is essential to obtain informed medical advice from a medical practitioner or institute with experience of southern African pathogens and disease.
KAZA offers you on more than 519 000 km2 wildlife and natural treasures. Our interactive map helps you to find the way to your destination
