A WORD from the MD

WELCOME TO ISSUE 19 OF TRAVEL & LEISURE ZAMBIA & ZIMBABWE MAGAZINE.

We are delighted to celebrate our sixth year of publication with this bumper issue featuring exciting destinations and inspiring projects.

We are grateful to all those companies who have embraced our objective over the years and appreciate the support of both our advertisers and readers, especially as this magazine is privately owned and funded entirely by advertising.

The magazine is dedicated exclusively to two African nations – Zambia and Zimbabwe, and we hope this issue will stimulate your love affair with these most exciting destinations. Travel with us to the Bangweulu Wetlands, a natural gem, with sheer scenic beauty, and utterly breathtaking - our cover feature in this issue explores the wetlands in depth (p6). Elsewhere in this issue, we look at Exploring Conservation Careers in North Luangwa (p14), 5 Reasons to visit Zambia (p36), Victoria Falls: The perfect Wedding Destination (p44) and Unpacking the Safari industry (p58).

Also, we would like to welcome Tessa Buhrmann to our team as our new Sub-Editor. We believe you will enjoy reading this publication and that hopefully it will help you plan your next visit to Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Happy Reading!
