Track Africa's most prehistoric bird in vast papyrus swamps
About This Tour
The Bangweulu Wetlands in northeastern Zambia are a birdwatcher's paradise and one of the most reliable places in Africa to see the iconic shoebill stork. These vast papyrus swamps and floodplains host an estimated 1,000 shoebills — the largest concentration on the continent.
Guided by expert local trackers, you'll navigate the wetlands by boat and on foot to find these extraordinary prehistoric birds. The wetlands also host thousands of black lechwe and sitatunga antelope.
