How to Visit Us ;)

To get to Zambia from the US:
African carriers flying to the capital include Air Zimbabwe, Ethiopian Airways, Kenya Airways and South African Airways. Lusaka Airport is 20km (12mi) east of the centre. South African budget airlines fly to Livingstone and Lusaka from Johannesburg - Nationwide has the most flights.

To get to Zambia from neighboring African countries:

*From Malawi, the main crossing point is east of Chipata, on the main road between Lusaka and Lilongwe.
*The only crossing point between Zambia and Botswana is the ferry across the Zambezi River at Kazungula, about 60km (37mi) west of Victoria Falls, though there are plans to build a bridge here.
*From Namibia, buses run from Windhoek to the Namibian outpost town of Katima Mulilo. From here you can cross the border into Zambia, go over the Zambezi on a ferry, then go via Sesheke to Livingstone. An easier option from Katima Mulilo is the bus, which runs through Botswana to Victoria Falls in Zimbawe, from where you can easily cross the border to Zambia.
