For those looking to extend their skills with rod and reel, there are few destinations more tempting than the Lower Zambezi in Zambia, one of the best places in the world to pit your wits against the infamous Tiger Fish.

We can arrange specialist tours for keen fly-fishermen involving stays at the best fishing spots Africa has to offer, but fishing is not just an activity for experienced fishermen. Most river-based lodges in Zambia, Botswana and Tanzania have the necessary gear for anyone to try their hand at this exciting pastime - a nice addition to the wide variety of other activities available. Some lodges offer private boat hire so you can travel by river to the best spots, but in areas like the Lower Zambezi the fish are so abundant, particularly later in the summer, that great fishing can be had in and around the lodges themselves.
