- Planning a trip to Zambia? You should NOT skip the capital, Lusaka!
In my opinion, Lusaka may well be the most underrated city trip in Africa: whether it’s culture and history, the bustling nightlife or the variety of café and restaurants - including the delicious traditional buffet, matebeto.
My friends and I spent a weekend (3 days) in Lusaka in October 2022. We were so happy not to have discounted the capital. So many people fly directly to Livingstone to see Mosi-oa-Tunya (Victoria Falls).
Stay tuned for part 2 of my Zambia series where we’ll explore Livingstone (aka Chuma & Susi town), the mighty Zambezi River, Mosi-oa-Tunya and Devil’s Pool - all part of another epic @africanbushcamps adventure.

I hope that one day I will be able to get to Zambia for travel. Hello from Ukraine🇺🇦🇿🇲
You are welcome. Zambia is a beautiful place
You are welcome
Hello
Am here to welcome you to my home town Lusaka City
You're very welcome ❤🇿🇲
I have been there 3 times and I can't wait to take my wife there to show her real Africa, a lot has changed since I've been there.
I am happy the way she decolonize the name of the so-called Victoria fall , call it the original name Moshi a tunya. I will definitely visit Lusaka on the next trip to Tanzania.

Thank you so much!!
I love the video it's well excuted 🎉 job well done Mr editor
Thank youu 😊 from Ms. Editor 🙌🏽
That is ubwali in Chibemba. One of the well spoken language in Zambia especially on the copper belt of Zambia.
The Nyanja speaking people of Zambia call it Insima. You were right. in Kenya they call it Ugali. In Uganda. Posho. Anyway, there is a little difference in preparation of Ubwali in different countries.
In Ghana they call it Banku.
Love your content 👌 you deserve 100k subscribers
Hehe maybe one day! Thank you
Beautiful country my Zambia yeah there hasnt been alot of exposure but there is alot to offer

You need to check out bonanza its such a dream
So beautiful
I grew up Lusaka. It's underrated if you have money, or have locals to show you around. Otherwise as a whole its a very mixed bag.
The urban planning is quite bad so you have nice areas side by side with squalid areas.
Lusaka is probably much more livable than most African cities. But for tourism I wouldn't even rank it top 5 in our county.
Am proud to be Zambian
I hope one day lsk and Zambia get the tourist recognition it deserves. We don’t market it as good as the big guys - SA and Kenya.
YOU are WELCOME! ❤
You see, when you crossed out 'victoria falls', decolonising it with its actual name; Mosi-oa-Tunya Falls ...I said to myself, "Now That's What's Up!" THANK YOU!!!!
Yayy thanks for noticing and watching 🙌🏽
Im currently boycotting any vids and blogs by yt pple so when your vid popped up in my feeds, i said; s#@t, another one is here. But then i checked and you're a sista (blood) w the same goal as me (54). I just returned frm Ug and Ityopia and i lived in Zed for 2 yrs. I LOVE your website😊
❤❤❤❤❤

What is the name of this lhotel?
Welcome to zambia
I'm from Zambia 🇿🇲
How much money should I bring US dollars for 25 days trip
What's the name of those cube apartments in Lusaka?
The Cubes, linked in the description
Sara I am living in Dar, and thinking of moving to Lusaka...how quiet is it there? Here it is non stop construction noise. Thanks
Hmm I’d say Lusaka is more quiet than Dar but maybe it depends where you stay. We stayed in a fairly quiet area of Lusaka.
Lusaka is generally quiet, the only places that are noisy are those around the open markets. Even there it's all human noise. Construction noise, not so much.
❤❤❤
I wish your next stop to be in mogadishu xamar cadey
Dhulkii hooyo allahayoo nabad ka yeel ❤️🩹🫀

My Home Country
I think you are overspending.... I mean you spent $40 on one meal.. Considering the size of your channel.. Just keep it simple and interesting.. Anyway I am hooked to your channel.. Welcome to zambia. Enjoy 🇿🇲😘
I usually am, Timothy 😂🙆🏽♀️ but yeah, agreed, it was marketed as a wine & food tasting. Considering the portion sizes, $40 was too high.
Zambia is a Landlinked Country we no longer considered ourselves Landlocked because we are proud and love our neighbours.
Have not heard “landlinked” before, LOVE it!!
جيد
Lsk!
Do they smoke weed out there
"Clean" 😅
I’m from Zambia and I want a South Africa girl please God
"...there is one God, and one Mediator between God and men, the man Jesus Christ. Who gave himself as a ransom for all..." (Bible - 1 Timothy 2: 5,6 )
I live in Zambia Lusaka.....😂so this is kinda weird...
Wy is black owned hotels zo importend? I think sleeping is importend.
Hi can i shot an email, i need assistance with my visa application. Please?
Depending on where you are from you can get a visa right at the airport
uuuuummm the Lusaka I know on the ground still has more work to be done,,its not really a beautiful city,,,,but generally the people of Zambia are very friendly and God fearing people,,,also the women of zambia are not stingy with the thigh fruits,,,
You didn't do Lusaka's most famous activity? Ride the escalator! 😅
Trevor is that you Noah 😂
Who are you exposing us here 😂😂😂
VISA??? Us Zambians do not need a VISA to get into RSA or Zimbabwe
Sadly I don’t have a SADC passport so I needed a visa 🥲
Lusaka is not clean and I’m zambian
Proud of my country but imwe can’t better in terms of sanitation
Lusaka? Clean? yeah no.
You must be living at the ugly side of lusaka
BW and their gay friends
Victoria falls belongs to Zimbabwe 😊😊😊
Lol no. Victoria falls is half in Zambia, half in Zimbabwe. coming from Zambezi river which mainly runs in Zambia
🤣🤣🤣do not start.
@@TitaT nOT "WHICH MAINLY RUNS IN ZAMBIA". Which is in Zambia. Hence the name "Zambia" which means "of the Zambezi River. Had it not been for our first president-who loved Africa so much, we would now have had all the Falls to ourselves. But instead he gave part of Zambia to Zimbabwe and the other large part to Botswana. But we dont share the Zambezi with nobody-we own it, we originate it, and we give it to everybody else thats needs water-Otherwise we could ve have long time blocked and contained it within Zambia if we were as selfish as Zimbabweans are for them to claim that the Vic falls is theirs-where what natural perspective? The Land was all Zambians and Cecil Rhodes divided it to cause confusion amongst and D,Livingstone even made things worse by naming it Victoria falls. When you are a good person you always get taken advantage of. Zambian shouldnt have gone the route of Pan Africanism from day 1, cos look now, all our sacrifices for all these neighboring countries non of all these countries that made us to be poor untill today'because of sanctions we got for supporting them" have paid off. Last case scenario is to receive respect from the person you helped but non of that is happening, instead Zimbabwe is spitting in our face and claim the Vic falls? Do you even know what the word Zambezi means ? which is the only river that pours into the falls. Tell me what the word Yambeji(Zambezi) means - Zimbabweans?
So beautiful
Am proud to be Zambian
