Many air services fly between major tourist destinations. Charter flights are best arranged through your travel agent. There are 39,700 km of road highways in Zambia, of which only 7,265 km are paved. The road from Chitapa to Lusaka is in reasonable condition, but otherwise roads are bad. After rains, most gravel rains are only passable with a four-wheel drive vehicle.
Car rental is available in Lusaka.
There is a good network of petrol stations, though not in the game parks. You will need an international driving licence. Driving is on the left side of the road. Local driving habits and road conditions make driving in Zambia rather unsafe. It is not recommended as a self-drive destination during the wet season.
