Day	Activities	More details
Day 1	Arrive in Zambia	Arrive in Livingstone, where you will be met at the airport and transferred to your accommodation. You will stay in the private Limbo Lodge, just a 5 minute walk from Livingstone’s town centre.
Day 2	Town tour and Victoria Falls	After breakfast, you will have a presentation on the local area and a briefing of what to expect from the next few days. In the afternoon, you will head to Victoria Falls, one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World. Situated on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe, the waterfall towers over 100 metres and spans 17 kilometres, with a powerful flow of up to 10,000 cubic meters per second. Enjoy exploring this UNESCO Heritage site as you follow the paths to spectacular viewpoints.
Day 3	Sports day	Enjoy a fun-filled sports day with one of our partner schools, participating in a variety of activities and games alongside local school children for an unforgettable experience.
Day 4	Eco Brick Building and Safari	Eco bricking is a sustainable initiative where plastic waste is transformed into building materials. Students and community members will collect non-biodegradable plastic and pack it into bottles to create “eco bricks.” These bricks are used for construction projects like benches, garden beds and walls, reducing waste and raising environmental awareness. Today, you’ll use pre-made eco bricks to build a new eco-structure from scratch. You’ll construct the structure, paint and decorate it. You’ll also go on a safari in the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for possible sightings of a diverse range of wildlife including elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, antelopes and many bird species.
Day 5	Departure	Make your way to the airport for your departure home.
