    Having numerous assorted indigenous ethnic groupings, Zambians have over the years learned to live peacefully with each other while embracing cultural diversity.

    Zambia’s most commonly used forms of transport include; roads, railway, airplanes, and inland water transportation. The choice of transportation to use is largely dependent on the destination you want to go to. As a measure to improve the inflow of tourists in the country, the Zambia Government has since 2011 been rolling out a massive infrastructure development programme aimed at rehabilitating roads and opening up new areas to be accessible by road, improvement of airports as well as railway transportation.

    Road transportation is the most widely used form of transport and offers a range of options such as car hire, public buses, travel and tour operators as well as taxi services. In the airline sector, the country has four international airports that regularly scheduled flights namely, the Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka City, the Harry Mwaanga Nkumbula International Airport in Livingstone City, the Simon Mwansa Kapwepwe International Airport in Ndola City and the Mfuwe International Airport in Mfuwe Town.

    Inland water transport is restricted to areas where there are water bodies such as rivers and lakes and mostly comprise pontoons for crossing rivers and small boats for getting to isolated areas. Railway transport is at the moment the least developed and least reliable hence efforts are being made to modernize this sector of transportation.

    Zambia has got a wide variety of accommodation options depending on the activity that you are undertaking as well as the particular places you wish to visit. These range from five-star luxurious hotels including international hotels such as Radisson Blu, Intercontinental, Sarovar, and Hilton hotels to campsites in wildlife protected areas. They help provide a true welcome to dazzling Zambia.

    The various types of accommodation available can cater for various budgets and the types available include; hotels, lodges, guest houses, apartments, backpackers, and camp sites. However, it should be noted that most of the standardized accommodation facilities are largely found in urban areas. Lodges are the most common form of accommodation areas outside towns and the good ones that are there usually get fully book quickly hence prior arrangements might be helpful in such cases.

    Nevertheless, it is worth stating that most game parks have got a number of luxurious resorts that allow tourists their visit in a typical natural African environment while enjoying the modern facilities of a five-star hotel after a day long’s safari and adventurous activities.
