Shot in the dark here, if anyone has any advice to give in this area, but...
I'm in the very early planning stages of a family holiday to Africa. I've been considering Zambia and Tanzania due to a couple of specific places I'd like to take my family.
Zanzibar in Tanzania has always interested me as a fascinating place to visit. And, I've also always wanted to visit Victoria Falls. I always thought I'd visit the Falls from the Zimbabwe side. However, I'm concerned about the political unrest in that country these days.
I'm just beginning to plan this trip. I'd appreciate any advice.
What are the best times of year to visit? Is it relatively convenient to link these two disparate locations into one trip? Of course, I'd like to take a wildlife safari (for spotting, not shooting), so any advice in this area would also be appreciated. Is the Zambian side of Victoria Falls as good as, or perhaps better than, the Zimbabwean side?
This would be a family holiday, to include three younger children (under ten years of age).
Thanks in advance for any responses.
