Southern Africa comes into full swing this month while the Mediterranean starts feeling the heat and the Far East leaves the rainy season behind. May has a lot to offer from half-term breaks to early season sun and safaris.
Zambia is considered among Africa’s best safari destinations, which is unsurprising given the range of activities and game to be seen. Catch tiger fish on the Zambezi, walk between bush camps in South Luangwa National Park or micro-light over Victoria Falls. Over the border, Zimbabwe is enjoying a resurgence as an unspoilt African wilderness.
