Project Location
Livingstone, Zambia: Just 6km away from the mighty Victoria Falls

Zambia
Zambia is one of the world’s poorest countries and as a result health care and provision suffers as much as any other public service sector in the country. Whilst structures are in place for an effective health service, there is an enormous deficit in terms of staff and resources. Therefore, your help is very much needed and appreciated by the nurses and doctors we work with.

Located just 6kms from the amazing Victoria Falls, you will also have a wealth of opportunities to explore the local area, and take part in a whole number of activities, from Elephant rides and Safaris to Bungee Jumping and white water rafting!

Free Time
Victoria Falls is right on your doorstep and is known as the adrenalin capital of the world!

During your weekends and spare time, you will have the opportunity to experience the following activities, at your own personal cost:

  • The world’s most exciting white water rafting on the Zambezi River
  • Bungee jumping and gorge swings over the Batoka Gorge below the Falls
  • Sunset cruises or canoeing safaris on the Zambezi River with experienced guides
  • Elephant or horse back safaris (half day or full day excursions)
  • Helicopter and Microlight flights over the Falls and Zambezi National Park
  • A fully organised weekend tour to Victoria Falls, including a variety of activities at just
    US$250 per person. This will include lion walks, visas, accommodation, food and drinks.

Being so close to the Victoria Falls means that you are at a major starting point for tours through Africa. Why not join an overland tour after your volunteer project and further explore the amazing sights that Africa has to offer you. From 3-day mini trips to a mammoth 56-day epic, we have the perfect tour to suit your needs and leave you with unforgettable memories of Africa. Please ask to the Africa team for further details.

Getting There
You will need to fly into Livingstone Airport in Zambia, where your volunteer coordinator will meet you and take you to your project and meet the team.
