Zambia has been named one of the ‘Best Places to Go in 2025’ by Frommer’s, the iconic travel guide-book series founded in 1957. Known as travel experts with a loyal following, Frommer’s have been advising holidaymakers on the world’s top vacation spots for decades.

 

 

Journalist Lily Heise, who is based in Paris, noted not only the Victoria Falls but also South Luangwa and Liuwa Plain National Parks as key reasons to visit. In addition, she highlighted the Livingstone Museum and Chakwela Makumbi traditional ceremony every October. She also suggested that travellers try some nshima when they are here!

Zambia Tourism was delighted to assist the Frommer’s team with information and imagery for the list, guiding them about some of Zambia’s best known attractions and secret, lesser known gems.
