Zambia

South Luangwa is a photographic paradise — it has the highest concentration of leopards in Africa, and the endemic Thornicroft's giraffe and Cookson's wildebeest are found nowhere else. Night drives (uniquely allowed here) open up a whole world of nocturnal photography. The Lower Zambezi's river-level canoe photography is equally outstanding.
